As I’ve been going through all the entries for the contest, I’ve had to reject quite a few of them. While I’ve received almost 400 entries, over 65% of them have been rejected and sent back. As of the time I’m posting this, there are 2 days - 48 hours - to get your submissions in. If you’ve received an email from me today asking you to resubmit your photograph, please take a couple of minutes to re-read the Rules and the Submission Guidelines. I promise it will only take you a couple of minutes to read. Most of the entries are being rejected because of the following reasons:

• Not all the correct information is attached (username, name, address, phone number, etc)
• Doesn’t have enough posts (you only need 5… it’s not that hard… that even includes comments in the Corner Photo Galleries)
• Photo is too small (has to be at least 1024×768 or 728×1024 in size) - and I’m talking pixels here, people - not millimeters or inches or anything
• Mis-spelled or missing username - if you don’t spell your username correctly, I can’t find you on the forum… this includes spaces!

So the 250+ of you that have received emails asking you to resubmit your photographs, you have 2 days to get it back to me. If you’ve sent a photograph in, but haven’t received a 2nd email back (everyone that has entered as of the time of this posting should have at least received an “I got your photo” email), you should receive it sometime tomorrow. I’ve checked all the entries for information & number of posts, but I’m still going through entries to check for correct size (if it wasn’t obvious), as well as EXIF data. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to PM me or send me an email and I’ll get back to you ASAP (except when I’m sleeping or not at the office).
