User Photo Competitions on Facebook powered by Sosl.com.au
We have just enabled a user photo upload and voting plugin for Facebook powered by our own customised platform Sosl. This functionality will enable you to set up new photo competitions in Facebook and allow your fans to vote on them.
Here is how it works
Registration:
All the users have to register before they can start posting pictures. They will set up a username and an email address (plus any other fields that you may need) before they can start posting.
Posting Pictures:
Once registered, a user can click on upload photo and upload their photo.
Photo Moderation
Any photo that gets uploaded gets moderated by the admin before it becomes live on the platform.
Photo Voting Once a photo goes live, users can then start upvoting and downvoting photos.
