Help Suggestions if you get an error message...

File names should not contain symbols like # or ~  Try changing the name of the file.
Files size too big (over 500kb will not be excepted). Reduce the size of the photo using the photo editing software that came with your digital camera.
The security settings on your web browser may not allow direct uploading of files. Change it temporally or send in the photo via email.
There may already be a photo with that file name in the contest. Rename the file by adding a number or letter in the name.
My server may not have liked something about the file you are sending.
I can only accept jpg (jpeg) or bmp or gif file extensions.

If you are having problems using this form, please email the photos to me and include all the info from this form. 

If you don't have a scanner or digital camera, I suggest you take your negatives or prints to your local photography shop or other establishment that will have your photos "digitized" and placed on a disk.  Attach that file from the disk to an email to me.
