I've just been looking at your SmugMug photos and reveling in the beauty to be found there.
You'll find rules posted in each contest's submissions thread, but one constant (though much debated) rule is 200k in file size and no longer than 800 pixels on the longest side. We had vigorous discussion about the rules earlier this year, but it seems safe to say we have general agreement for the time being. The issue of post-processing was considered for a hard-and-fast rule, but no real consensus was reached as far as I recall. None of what I've seen in your SmugMug gallery seems excessive in terms of processing to my humble eye.
Unless a contest host specifies otherwise, archival photos are acceptable if you don't shoot something new for a given contest. I actually won my first contest with a photo I'd had sitting around for four years or so.
Glad you found this group and look forward to seeing more from your beautiful corner of the world.
