If my entry got Disquallified and they take the Disquallification back. What happens if the Contest Voting is already running for houers?

If an entry is disqualified when the voting starts, it won't be undisqualified.

Just relax, man!

At least you learned something, by chopping or by dq.
Read the FAQ and chill out.

If the image was dq'd before voting started, then you should be able to enter the 'repaired' image in another contest with the same theme (unless it was a B2B).

A house, a barn, and a hole in space and time.

it hapens to the best of us. best thing to do before you start to chop is to read the contest rules and see exactlly what it is you can and can not do. of couse before reading the whole FAQ.

keep up the good work and dont let a DQ get you down.

Ok, so i spendet houers for nothing

I still occassionaly get dq'ed and I've been a member here for years, it stings every time... I actually dedicated an entry in "Unsung Deities" to this evil God... check it out... "Disquall, the Entry Killer".
Best handle it with a sense of humour and learn from your mistakes dude!

Everyday somebody on this site inspires me to be a better artist... THANKS!

er.. if the entry is dqed before voting starts you can re-submit a fixed version of the image for re-evaluation (assuming there is enough time left to do so before voting begins) and it can sometimes be re-instated if a moderator gets to it in time, don't hold your breath though.
that happened to this entry
http://effects.worth1000.com/entries/420109/hindenbird
it was dqed for gratuitous borders before voting, i clipped the border and it was reinstated.

I have several DQs myself, just goes to show that not even being handsome and clever is enough to protect you ;)
