Email Pixels At An Exhibition here.
Mail photos to submissions@pixelsatanexhibition.com (best to send from your iPhone, actually). Better yet, buy our iPhone app, PixelEx, and upload directly to the site. It makes life a lot easier for us and gets your pictures up on the site much faster.
I’ll have a think, the other bizarre thing was that there is a pixels at an exhibition blogspot site coming up in search results on google is this affiliated or just a rip off of pixels site title?
I don’t know if your aware but when ‘liking’ an image with the facebook button beneath the artists work it doesn’t post the image to your facebook profile, it posts the pixels exhibition poster or some other sidebar image, after a while your profile is full of the same image (although it does link back to the original images page).
I think this will mean less people ‘liking’ artists work and therefore less link backs from facebook to pixels (which I assume is part of the reason for the facebook like buttons).
Facebook is a great way of generating interest and traffic to Pixels but I think more people would link back if they could see a thumbnail of the artists work on their feed rather than the same image repeatedly.
Anyway hope all is well on planet Pixel! Loving some of the recent work being featured nothing short of brilliant as usual, all best, Jas
Jason – The “Like” buttons I have looked at all have issues. I REALLY want one that shows the image being “liked.” But I cannot find one that works. It is aggravating! Do you know of one that works properly? Thanks for writing. Always good to hear from you. kb
Is it too late to be part of the show coming up on the 22nd? if so I would love tobe part of your next show, thanks Phil Bishop AKA iPhonePhil.
Yes, it is too late. Sorry. This show only had space for a few new pictures and those spots were reserved for regular contributors to the site. I am not sure when we will have another show with an open call for submissions. Stay tuned.
Hi Knox, checking in, been still sending some through my iphone pixel app bur I’m still not sure you are getting them….Mark
Hi Knox, I was browsing pixels on my iPhone & remembered there’s a wordpress plug in that allows site to be viewed on mobile devices with option to switch between views. You may already know of it & may not work for pixels but thought I’d let you know as might make browsing pixels on mobile devices easier, hope all is well, Jas
I have the plug-in, Jason. I just turned it back on. With luck, we will have PixelEx working properly for browsing the site before too long. Thank you!
Cool, I like the app, very useful for submitting & browsing when out and about!
Hi Knox, Your probably aware already but just thought I’d let you know if not, the pixels app has some glitches, categories not loading etc May be just my device but then wondered if recent site hacks had gad an effect? Hope all is well otherwise, Jas
Hi Jason – Yes, I am aware the browsing function is not working in PixelEx. We had to update the site to prevent further attacks from bringing the site down and one of the PixelEx plugins isn’t compatible. However, I have no $ to pay the developer to fix. Just one of many frustrations I am currently dealing with. Thank God such great pictures come in every day! Makes it all worthwhile.
I guess I should post something about this issue. You are not the only one who has written about it. Take care, Jason. -Knox
Thanks for reply, will try & donate a few dollars when I’m paid (last 6 months been a struggle, starving artist & all that lol!). I thought it might be to do with the hacks, hope you manage to get it sorted, Jas
Jason – thanks, but don’t worry! It will all work out. -Knox
Knox,
Out of the numerous photos I’ve submitted, nine have been posted. For that, I am very thankful! Your site features only the best pictures processed on an iOS device. I am finding so much inspiration in the pictures that make it onto your site that it pushes me to go even further with my photo processing. So kudos to you and all the artists here for bringing iPhoneography into the well-deserved spotlight!!
Chris – thank you for the kind note. I really appreciate it. -Knox
Thanks so much Knox for showing my work. I really appreciate it. I am working on a blurb book of the Strange Things Are Happening In Barbara Hepworth’s Bed Series. Should be done soon and I can devote more time to creating images, maybe start a new story….

Hi —
I’m new to all this – I sent in 5 pics from my iphone using PixelEx –
how do i know if the pics are used etc?
Thanks
Sally
Hi Sally – welcome to Pixels. Well, I am way behind posting since we were down in LA for the OCCCA opening this weekend. Basically, the site is heavily curated: meaning a lot of pictures do not get published. Haven’t gotten to yours yet. I’ll try to get through the backlog today. The aesthetic standards here are set by the community: I merely uphold them.
I love to publish good pictures and we love to see new talent here. So thank you very much for your submissions. If they don’t make it, please keep trying. The Pixels community is comprised of the finest iphonographic artists working as far as I am concerned, so good company to be in. -Knox
Sally – I do not find any pictures from you under the name Sally or your email sally@sallybaxter.com. Can you please resubmit? Thank you. -kb
Haven’t heard anything about the upcoming show. Wassup?
Wassup is that I posted an article here: http://pixelsatanexhibition.com/uncategorized/occca-show-list-of-images-accepted/
A website here: http://pixelsoccca.tumblr.com/
And there is a link to the gallery at the top of the middle column.
Loving the site! Great to get so much inspiration every day.
One important note: can you add the actual images to your RSS feed? Right now it only send the headline and a reader needs to click on each one to view the image at your site. That kinda defeats the purpose of an RSS feed.
Thanks!
adam
We’ll endeavor to incorporate that in the next iteration of the site, which should be coming soon. Thanks for the suggestion. -Knox
Hi – newbie here and not sure where to post ths question to site manager. Here goes: can we submit work that has been taken on the i-phone but edited on the i-pad? I have a hard time with editing my work on such a small phone screen, even with my new reading glasses
). Can someone let me know, please. The apps are virtually the same on both devices so I am not sure why there would be a concern here but I want to abide by the rules.
I am sorry, but the image cannot be taken off the iphone and edited. Everybody has a hard time editing on the small screen. It’s part of what makes iphonography iphonography. If I sound curt, forgive me: I have a bad cold and feel miserable.
As Henri Matisse said,”Much of the beauty that arises in art comes from the struggle an artist wages with his limited medium.”
To put a slightly softer, less-illness-induced edge on it, all-iPhone is a badge of honor.
As tabiwallah said over at ipa, “…while it may not be significant and I hold no religious or philosophical grudge against editing on the iPad, this humble iPhoneographer can stick out his chest and proudly claim that he is all iPhone and only iPhone.
”
Thanks Knox and Unruly-e for responding! I just wanted to make sure I understood the rules, since I thought they stated computer aided images are not allowed. OK, I will enjoy viewing all the images here and leave my I-pad edited images over at IPA!!
Feel better, Knox – chicken soup and a swig of vodka??
Hey, Knox… is the new site that you are talking about going to offer the option to find all of our submissions, even those that are not published on the blog itself? I’m not really all THAT organized and sometimes I see a pic of mine and think I should submit it, and then I can’t remember if I have or not. It’d be nice to be able to see either here or in the app, what we have already submitted.
Thanks and thanks for providing a place to share our work
Well, Matt, I don’t know. I get a few double submissions, but not enough to be a problem. I have a pretty good memory for images. The next iteration of the site and the app will be about more control over an images attributes when submitting (tags, etc.) and tying it to a user account as well as a more elegant browsing experience.
The new site will make it easier to create galleries, featured content & artists, etc.
I will talk to the developers about your idea. It would be nice if people could create their own galleries, but that may have to wait until the next iteration of the site, which would be more like a full-blown social networking site.
I am glad everyone is not as nutty as me then, for your sake! lol I think this is a fantastic place to see what others are doing and how the art is growing. You do a great job keeping it all moving. And so many incredible images I see on here each day! It’s amazing how many talented people who are able to consistently achieve such unique visions. Thanks again, to everyone! (and thanks again for answering, Knox!)
Knox and company,
Are you aware that you can set the role of blog subscribers to a higher lever (contributor) that can write and manage a post, but NOT publish it? That way you could hand the manual labor off the member (saving you countless buckets of time), and still either accept or reject the post/picture before it would “go live”. More detail is here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities if you need it.
Cheers,
unruly-e
Oh, absolutely! I totally set up the site wrong in the beginning. But now the issue is tying images to user accounts, using a new version of PixelEx … Hopefully we will have a whole new system before too long. Thanks for the suggestion! Believe me, it would make life easier for everybody … it’s coming!
And just to clarify – once the new site is built, someone is going to have go through all the old images (6000+) and assign every one to a user!!! I imagine I will be looking for volunteers!
Rather than slog through that, why not archive the old site and give searchers the option to also search the old. Saves all the labor and agonizing over it. Just a thought.
Too much good content. And users are going to have the option to sell prints off the new site, which is why images must be attached to user accounts. Believe me, I’ve gone through all the options with everyone involved.
Oh, right. The sales.
A funny note… I put a link to this site on my links bar in Safari… and it truncates the end of the site name. So on my browser, you all are "Pixelsatan", which makes me giggle every time I see it.
I know. I didn't see that until the site was up! I cannot wait until we move the site over to http://pixelstheartoftheiphone.com … and the core interstitial word will be HEART.
Is there a deadline for the submissions?
Thanks!
Yes! Read the article please!! You need to know more than the deadline, although I guess that is important.
Just wanted to check and see if there are any restrictions with regard to selling or showing work at other galleries or sites for work that is submitted and/or accepted into this program? Thanks for such a great opportunity!
It all has to do with association. I'm sure you can figure it out.
thanks for the quick response. sorry to be dense…does that mean if i submit here, i'm not allowed to promote/sell work through other outlets? just wanted to make sure i know the rules…sorry if it is supposed to be obvious.
You aren't even registered on the site. Register, send in some pics so I can see if you belong on Pixels, and then we can discuss "rules."
I have a few iPhone 4 photos that are already out of my actual iPhone and on my MacBook's hardrive so can I submit them to the following address from my AOL account?
submissions@pixelsatanexhibition.com
The submission instructions only speak of using this address from the iPhone itself and I have been trying rather unsuccessfully to add the pics back into my iPhone with DiskAid to no avail. Help!
Thank you,
Oz
Why are comments disabled? Would love to leave kudos to my favourite photos.
And did Maia Panos do a deal with the devil for her talent?!
Thank you for mentioning comments. I have to turn them on manually and I often forget.
As far as Maia goes … I have NO idea. If you are in the SF Bay Area, she has a collection of new works on display at Rick and Ann's in Berkeley.
Ahah I'm not so close to SF.
More like the Western Australia area.Perhaps one day.
Do you know what apps she uses?
And can I bribe you to get my photos on here?
Joking of course about the bribes.Aussie sarcasm.
Is there any way I can change the catagory of my photos you have accepted?
change categories? yes. send me an email. soon you will be able to manage your photos. categories, titles, tags, etc.
how will i know when you accept my photo? thank you!
Search your name.
How do I upload a picture to be featured on your blog? Thanks!
Read the submissions guidelines.
any way that you can add an automatic running tally each day of the top vote getters?
Maybe I'm temporarily blinded by all the great photos on this site… but is there an RSS subscribe link anywhere?
trying to figure that out! thanks for the nudge. -kb
There should be a little rss icon on the right side of your browser web/url address field. In any case, let me know if that helps. the url of the feed is feed://pixelsatanexhibition.com/feed/

You can use any iPhone application to enhance your images. You can't download your image to your computer and use Photoshop or other apps to modify. iPhone only!!! Thank you for asking. -Knox
Can images submitted for consideration in the show be edited with iPhone apps, for example Camera Bag or Blurred Photo? Thank you
