Vote for photos

After the photos have been uploaded to our photo contest software, we will automatically create a gallery, thumbnails and a preview for you.

In our online photo gallery your participants can view pictures and vote for them. Besides our star rating you can also choose other voting types like dot voting or simple upvoting.

»Love«, »like« or rate photos:
The PollUnit voting types

Decide how emotional your participants can vote. Upvote features include simple yes/no checkboxes, a thumbs up to say »like« and the ability to give hearts »love« to photos.

If a simple upvote isn't enough, you can use star rating or dot voting to rate photos on configurable scales.

Review, comment and rate photos in full screen

Whether wiping on your smartphone or using your mouse and keyboard: in the Lightbox you can navigate through your photos quickly and easily.

Review, rate, and comment on photos in our high resolution full screen mode. This makes PollUnit the ideal photo feedback software - not only for camera and photo clubs. You decide which functions are enabled in your photo contest.

Rate photos in categories

Optional voting categories help to specify judging criteria. Categories such as technique, image composition, image message, motif, etc. help to evaluate and rate images more objectively. Thus, a fairer judgment can be formed during the analysis in the photo review.

Winners can be chosen for each category. For an overall winner, the individual ratings of the categories can be combined.

Evaluate photo contest

Our photo contest platform offers numerous functions to evaluate and monitor your competitions. This includes the possibility to export the collected information as CSV or Excel.

Run GDPR-compliant photo competitions

As creator of a photo competition you decide whether and which information your participants have to provide. Participants are photographers who upload their photos or voters who rate the photos. For each of these groups you can make your own settings.

If you collect personal data, you can inform the persons concerned in your own privacy policy. Optionally, you can call up users for confirmation with the help of Single and Double Opt-In.

You can also clarify rights of use, prices etc. with your own terms and conditions.

Alternative to the photo competition

Beside the photo contest you can also create a simple image voting with PollUnit. This type focuses on the opinions of your participants. In a tabular view you and your participants can see the distribution of votes - ideal for prioritizing graphics or finding the most popular logo.

Compared to the photo competition, only a small number of photos can be included.
