As the rules stand you may only enter a miniature once.
This means that a miniature entered in the single unit category may not be also entered as part of the Battleforce category. There are no exceptions.
The problem starts with the allowing of one exception then someone will else will ask for their issue to be allowed an exception.
The rules stand as is.

Jimbo one more clarification: If I submit a pic of a miniature can I also host another pic on my own website? ...and can I host other pics of that miniature (as long as I don't link to them) Work in progress pics, painting guides etc..
Finally: Should I be able to take a better pic of my miniature while the competition is running is it then permitted to edit the post and change the pic?
Again I assume that the answer is "no" to both questions but for the sake of clarification:)
Cheers!

However if you put such a link on your entry then the link will be deleted. If you continue to post links (elsewhere in the forums) then your entry will be disqualified.
Finally: Should I be able to take a better pic of my miniature while the competition is running is it then permitted to edit the post and change the pic? |
No that would not be fair.
As it happens I am taking the pics off the forums anyhow, so even if you did this (and I didn't notice) your original entry would be the one that would be on the webpage from which it would be judged.

after the competition you can post as many pictures as you like...
all please take note
this is a competition, it has rules, you abide by the rules or you don't enter
if you don't like the rules that's okay, but this is a painting competition, no one is forced to enter.
Last year we had a bundle of entries, by restricting everyone to just one photograph it will make judging easier, an excellently painted miniature should be able to win with just one picture, yes it would be nice to see more detail, but the entry should be able to stand alone.
The other thinking is that this is a not a detail competition, in other words it is not about whether you can paint the eyebrows on a epic miniature (though I know Tuff paints the individual hairs); it is whether you can paint a whole miniature well and it looks good as an epic miniature. This is why it is fair to only allow one picture per entry.
After the event feel free to post more pictures.
My entry won the Open Category last year

and I only suppplied one picture!!
More pictures became available on my website after the competition.
PLEASE SEE THE SMILES
