Full Nudity Not Permitted
APAC aims to be an inclusive club and to be considerate of younger members and those with conservative sensibilities. Images containing full nudity and erotica are not permitted.
For more information please refer to the category entitled "Mature (ZM)".
Disqualified Images
If an image does not meet the criteria as defined by a category or the editing rules, it may be subject to disqualification by a judge. In the case of a disqualification, every effort will be made to notify a maker prior to Competition Night.
Other image infractions and their remedies can be found here.
