ROPA CALCULATOR: The Recognition of Photographic Achievement (ROPA) now offers two methods for applying for distinctions. Use the upper panel Optimized (Non-Star) to get a quick analysis of whether your current titles and acceptances qualify for a ROPA distinction. Or if you prefer using Excel files with the Star program, use the lower panel Star Program to explore combinations of certificates and Paths and associated Star fees. The Calculate button refreshes both panels, and the MORE... button displays 4 possible scenarios for combining Star certificates for your next level. This is an approximation tool only - accuracy is not guaranteed. To report problems or to test the Optimized application process, contact: mrp@psa-photo.org
