mines a plain old original picture, dont think you should be allowed to do stuff to them tbh as its not really your pic then is it, its something you have altered to make look better using a computer program

Cropping and resizing are hardly an editting crime. Noone's having a go at you Jake, just saying that it's a photo comp, not a computer generated image comp. However, this is a debate to be kept with the one about whether the comp is judged on picture quality or subject matter

IMO no photoshopped images should be allowed, can make a larda look like a ferrari using that...

IMHO cropping and resisng isnt a real crime as you are not adding or improving any thing (tone, warmth, contrast, bightness, colours ect), it is still 100% what you took except smaller, and lets be honest massive photos make browsing harder and slower for us all.

IMO photos should be judged on content and photo quality, as both are important parts of photography...
