Dear Adam,
Sorry for my photo does not appear on that are competing. I forwarded a beautiful picture, within the criteria of the contest and had received the expected Wed. Here is a sujestão: When a file is sent, the person who sent it should receive a notification confirming receipt. By submitting my photo I did not get the error message, which made me believe that everything was in order. I regret what happened.

You're not going to get much by way of help in this thread, but check your e-mail inbox. If there were any problems with your submissions, you should have gotten an e-mail. For the record, though, I checked all your threads and am not seeing any contest submissions. To verify that you've posted an entry, check the submission forum while the contest is open, and you should see your entry along with a thumbnail.

My goodness. Like last month another voting thread w/over 200 submissions. Phenomenal. But I can't help but feel sorry for the great photos that are numbered near the end.

When we get to this number of photos I wonder if a randomized "do you prefer A or B " page a the voting mechanism would be better (or other?) ... assuming the voters take the time to do all 100'ish comparisons. (but even if not, w/the randomization of photo comparisons all photos should hopefully end-up w/the same number of eyes hitting them) After a few dozen voters let alone if you have hundreds of voters, you're assured all photos are equally weighted in attention.
