Scoring


How will you choose the finalists?
A panel of John Ascuaga’s Nugget judges will choose the finalists in each category based on artistry and how they capture the essence of Star Spangled Sparks. We'll post the finalists on janugget.com by July 15th for public voting. The photo with the highest average score in each category wins.

How do I give out scores?
Go to www.janugget.com/photocontest/ Choose a score of 1 to 10 (10 highest, down to 1 lowest) and click the VOTE button. Note that you score each photo independently; don't rank them from 1st to 10th. Please limit your votes to one vote per photo, per valid e-mail address.

Are there suggestions for how to score photos?
No. You can use any scoring system you like, as long as you're consistent.

Can I give more than one score to each photo?
No, please score each photo only once. A valid e-mail address is required to vote.

Can I score photos from friends and family?
Yes, but be fair to all of the photos you score. Don't just score a photo highly because you know who took it.

Do I have to score all of the finalists?
No, you don't have to score all of the finalists, but if you score a photo in a category, please try to give a score to all other photos in that category.

Do I have to enter a photo to score photos?
No.
