The 2 main beauty shots should be single shots if possible, then nothing prevents you from adding additional shots. The word limit is more a ballpark than a hard limit. Some people have been posting it as an image, I'd rather have it as text along with the submission though. Good luck to all for these final few hours!
A few contestants have done that yes. Try to keep it clean and readable though if you do that, better to have a nice thought-out point of view than a swarm of closeups without real significance
Hi! I have my finished submission 20+hrs also. No moderator aproval. How can I contact a moderator? ps. If I have story text longer then 100 words, can I add my long story version (about 800 words) to final submission or better to keep it short version?
I posted my final submission at around 1:30am (GMT) which was well before the deadline of 11:59PM (PST) but my account was not verified so the post didn't go up and said it would appear once approved. I contacted a moderator and my account was verified and they responded at 12:46PM (GMT after the deadline). However when I went back to my WIP page the text and images had not submitted and I had to post them at that point. Will this effect my submission. Also I'm not sure if the images I uploaded are sharing properly... I think I must be having a nightmare because everything seems to have gone wrong.

KOLTSCHO - if you go into your profile and select Inbox you can create a new message. In the recipients box type the name of a moderator I got the names from here: http://wiki.polycount.com/wiki/Polycount:About Eric Chadwick was the one who responded to me. Tell them the problem and they'll be able to verify your account.
Do we get any confirmation of review? Something like, "yes, your post has been acknowledged for participation in the contest, please wait for the final announcement" Also, when are the results coming out?
Thank you. I did wrote to some of the moderators 8hrs ago (not Eric) but they did not respond, so I was wondering if that was the right way. Anyway I fiddled around deleted everything and just hit that "NEW REPLY" button, made a new reply didn't use headings and separated my post into several ones and it seemed to do the trick. The question is if my submission will be considered, since I have no direct proof I submitted it in time.. (maybe I could just send via email the original images and there would be a date when it was created) This is very frustrating considering I worked hard on my model and now I don' t even know if is going to be considered because of technical issues of the website. Can we figure this situation somehow out?
No worries guys, all your submission will be valid and entered in the contest! I want to thank you all for the hard work and sweat you all put into this contest, a lot of great looking and inventive entries! I will post a global thread with all the final entries later this week.
I posted my entry in the topic start of the thread at 10 on the 17th. (2 hours early). Is that a problem? I now am thinking that I probably should have posted in the thread itself. I guess you can check the time of my finished post and time of the images?

So you mean you can add multiple shots in the single closeup image?
Killwithhonor7 You can post your submission in your own wip thread.
