How can I submit previous works that I have uploaded on SkyPixel to the contest?

What is the relationship between the monthly contests and the main contest?
The monthly contests consist of three limited-timed submission events that are not part of the regular categories of the main contest and offer their own independent prizes. If you have entries that meet the requirements of any monthly contest, you may submit them to both the monthly and main contests and compete for both the independent prizes of the monthly contests and the final prizes of the main contest. The monthly contests only accept submissions through SkyPixel, and there is currently no option to submit exclusively to the monthly contests without also submitting to the main contest.
Can I submit one entry to multiple monthly contests?
No, one entry is only eligible for submission to one monthly contest.
Can I submit multiple photos/videos to the same group
Yes.
Can I submit photos/videos to all categories?
Yes. However, you cannot submit the same photo/video to multiple categories.
How do I submit entries through a user club? What's the difference between an entry winning a prize via the user club and the user club itself winning a prize?
1. You can get information about your local user club and become a member at any offline DJI-authorized retail store. All cooperating user clubs of the contest have their own invitation codes. On the submission page, you can select “Join via User Club,” enter the corresponding invitation code, and agree to tag your entries with your club’s badge. The prizes won via user club entries are for individual participants, such as the Annual Best Work Prizes, Annual Top 10 Videos Prizes, etc. 2. The prize that user clubs compete for is the Annual Top 20 User Club Prizes. This prize is determined by the contest organizers considering various factors such as the number of participants from each user club and the overall quality of the entries, which is not for individual participants.
Can I add watermarks to my entries?
Yes. However, entries with watermarks are not recommended.
Are there any file size requirements?
