... well, maybe one little one.
We are trying our first ever contest by posting the entry pics in the Gallery. A new contest "category" has been set up right here. Posting there should be easy, but for those of you that aren't familiar, there is a new thread under the "Getting Started" forum that will explain how. Just click here to view this step-by-step. You do not need to set up a new category, just be sure when you do post, that the picture goes into the May contest category. Since this is a first, whenever someone posts a picture there, I will add (link) that picture to this thread so it can be viewed in either place. You may make comments on indvidual pictures right in the Gallery, or general comments in this thread.
Now for the contest requirements. Since this is a new way of doing things, it would be great to have everyone participate so for that reason, the contest is open to any kind of a picture that you want to post, be it train-related or not. A shot of the Grand Canyon when you were there on vacation, your kids playing in the swimming pool, anything at all that you'd like to enter, including of course, something relating to trains, scale or prototypical.
Now that you have no excuse to not enter, the rules,
Oh, and note that the allowable picture size for the Gallery is larger than for the forums. You are allowed to post a picture up to 800 x 600 pixels, and up to a 2 meg file size.
If you are having difficulty posting in the Gallery, let me know and I'll work with you. Please do not post pictures directly to this thread, that's my job for now...
Good luck.:thumb: When the voting thread is set up, we will add clickable thumbnails to the voting thread.
