Daily Challenges: All Models Now Allowed

Daily Challenges: All Models Now Allowed

What changed

All Daily Challenges will allow PRO models every day. Before, some challenges limited which models and tools you could use. That’s no longer the case. Beginning Saturday May 9th, you can use any model on any day.

Can I still enter with free models?

Yes. You can enter Daily Challenges the same way you always have using free models. Nothing was removed.

Do I need PRO to participate?

No. PRO is not required to enter Daily Challenges or place in results.

Why was this change made?

Some challenges were limiting what people could create depending on the day. You might have had an idea you couldn’t make because a certain tool wasn’t allowed at that time.

That restriction is gone.

Now you can create what you want, when you want, without waiting for a specific day.

How are entries judged?

Nothing has changed about how entries are judged. Voting is still based on the image itself.

Will this affect results?

Daily Challenges have always included a mix of different styles and approaches - that doesn’t change. People respond to the final image, not just the tools used to make it.

I preferred the old format

That’s understandable. The previous setup gave different days a different feel. This change shifts Daily Challenges toward a single format where all tools are available at all times.
