I only have twenty minutes to go and I am trying to submit my photo. It says that it is received but all I get is a box with a red X in it. Is this normal? I tried it twice with the same results. Do you think it will eventually show up? I haven't submitted in two weeks and I was really prepared for this week. I will be very bummed out if my picture doesn't show up and it's not my fault. Help. 19 minutes to go.

Thanks John, it worked. Is this new? Or has it always been this way? You saved my day. Now I can give you a challenge ; ? )

the image files are stored on a unix box now and it doesn't like some file names that windows systems can handle...

I can't believe it would say that the photo is submitted when there is a problem with it. That needs to be fixed.
