Is this one of those ebay scams? Instead of cars, our highly-prized photos were scammed away from us!!!

On the other hand, who WOULD want to come back to the crappy winter we have here in the States?! Burritos stay warm longer down there.

Must be fun in the sun or there were not enough photos to choose from.....

Hey George,

Why don't you volunteer to collect all the photos again from everyone who submitted, and post them all for all to see and vote? This way those photos will at last see the light of day...

Better yet how about just a new thread titled Picture Contest Entries. Those with photos they would like to enter could post a photo (without any text / comments) at that thread. Then votes could be PM'd to one moderator.

This would be a simple way to handle this although someone else may have a much better idea. If so please chime in. Thanks, George

Sounds like a good idea to me. Voters can indicate their preferences via the number of each posting. What do folks think of a submission period of one week, and the same for voting?

How about a standard size? What is the largest that fits without scrolling? George

I tried to make the following image uploadable, size-wise, so had to fudge its parameters in Photoshop a bit:

Pixel Dimensions: 900w x 743h pixels
Document Size: 5.5 x 4.128 in.
Resolution: 180 pixels/in.

Edit: It's a SNUG fit on my 15" 1024x768 laptop screen - resolution isn't quite as good as original, however.

I am VERy sorry for all of the delay on this matter. I havent had any time to be on alfa BB (college apps, work and whatnot. I'm in the process of uploading the pictures right now

Glad to have you back, and good luck on your college apps! I hated that process.

For those who were not told (I myself accidentally found out while visiting the Picture Room), the votes are being taken in the Picture Room:
