I noticed in his blog, the "chosen winner" did not get in contact with them, so i guess it was kind of a "must be present to win" thing.

I wonder what the chosen photo was?

Someone submitted a photo caption and didn't provide a link, and later that day I was reading MRH and saw that person's name and a photo that matched the caption he sent me. I contacted him two different ways and asked if that was the photo he ment to enter, he never responded.

Yah, I posted it in the December 2018 show me something. I just submitted it to help Harrison out, since he was so desperate to get contributions.

I'm beginning to realize that Windows 10 and sound decoders have a lot in common. There are so many things you have to change in order to get them to work the way you want.

1-    Are photos linked from photobucket okay?

2-    Can I send my photo as an attachment?

3-    Should an attached photo, if allowable, be of a file-size comparable to that of a photobucket picture, or do you require a high resolution photo, or one in RAW format?

I don't mind contributing, but want to send something useable.

I can submit a picture. Is there any prize, or just the interview?

 

Sorry, no prize. My income is $0.00 a month, just so you know.

I intended to make a submission, but I had to make an unplanned trip to Chicago and have had low time available.

.

I will try to get one done next week.

Is there a minimum size for photo files?

.

All my photos are pretty small so they download easier.
