Hey Loves

We have had 16 entries so get looking through your archives for a second marvellous picci

HOWEVER before you submit a second entry please check the size of your current entry to ensure that is does not exceed the size limits in the rules. As a reminder please keep your entry no larger than 1024 pixels in its longest dimension and under 675K in file size. We have a few entries this time round that have not yet be resized to fit these requirements

I trust that you will please do this and update as needed before you post a 2nd picture. If you are unsure how to resize leave a note here and one of us will help.

I will check on Wednesday morning and will make the changes myself if they have not been done by then, but I do not like the idea of messing with your images, where possible.

So enough nagging and to the fun bit!!!!!
The pictures that have so far been submitted are absolutely extraordinary. The light and the joy and the beauty on display is delightful.
If anyone is reading this thread who is not planning to submit anything you may still want to take a peek at this link https://www.democraticunderground.com/103674870 to see the talent on display.

So happy hunting through the archives in this time of lock down and come post a bit more beauty, just make sure it is before 1700 GMT on Wednesday because we will be shutting for submissions then!!!

EDIT - 5 more pictures to go before we close the competition so you had better be quick!!!

I'll resize my first one shortly. It is a bear to do it on the Imgur app and I always forget to go.. a la izquierda Apr 2020 #10

I will. I think I have another but am not sure if it is even close to good enough. I have to find it too, my photos are terribly disorganized. Thanks so much. I am no photographer but sometimes I like what I take and this is fun win, lose or come up totally empty it is still fun!

I had two top choices and had a hard time deciding which to put first. I figured no one else would have a green iguana so I waited to do the azalea after the rain.

And yes, I agree that images need to adhere to the size limit rules.

One of them is a whopping 3888 x 5184!

back and edit.


ETA: I'm having a hard time getting my images to resize. I've resized them, but they don't look any different to me on DU.
