No more entries. It's over folks. It's time to view our pics. Please, Josh, post our pics.

We have the thread up now. It takes longer then you think to go through all those photos, check they meet rules, then load them up and get them on the thread.

Those whose pictures are not showing have 24 hours from this point (time is stamped on my post) to get them resubmitted IF they can meet the rules (size is a huge issue).

I think we will have another contest (one of the monthly types) open only to those who entered the calendar contest, but were unable to meet the size rule. How does that sound?

I don't doubt it's a ton of work - thanks for your willingness!

And just a little hint to you if you don't see your picture. There were 70 entries, but only 39 photos matched up to the rules. The most important thing was the picture was too small (pixel-wise).

I just re-sent mine in the event mine did not go through. I had previously sent mine through my cell phone and it's possible that my cell phone distorted/altered it's size. Trying again!

Where is the pre voting thread? I can't even find a "contest" section of the forum. Maybe it's because I'm using the app?

Yes, i believe mine Didnt make it because of the size of the photo. So i resubmitted it using a 5 megapixel. When will we know if it has been accepted?

Mine matched all the rules and wasn't posted. My email said it went through.
I resubmitted it.

I can't find it. I have no TFO contests listed under site announcements.
It came up for me yesterday under unread threads, automatically when I opened TFO.
???????
Is voting over?
I got sidetracked because I had a concert to go to last night and a million things to do yesterday.

Voting starts today, and will continue until the 24th. Photo entries ended yesterday. So, voting starts today and I was gonna ask where is the thread for voting.
