December 2011 Countdown Thread
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!Seriously, I know they say time speeds up as we get older, but how did we reach mid-January already? I've barely gotten over the holiday craziness. I just checked my calendar and realized we're close to time, and given how early the announcements were the past couple months, I hope we have a couple days to post some favorites (not that I mind getting the results early - works for my non-patient genes). Good luck everyone - I can't wait to see your favorites from December, and am looking forward to a fabulous 2012 for all of us! Helpful hints for attaching photos into Forum Threads: 1) Sign into BP completely (name + password.) 2) If you have NOT YET entered the Contest today, you can use the "Photo ID" to pull an existing image from your Member Center into your reply to this thread (avoiding a duplicate image upload.) Get the Photo ID# from your Member Center, come to back this thread, click Respond, enter the text of your reply, then choose "1" from the images-to-attach drop-down. Click Submit; at the next screen populate the "Photo ID" box at the right. Skip the other fields on that screen. 3) If you HAVE ALREADY entered the Contest today before replying to this thread, you can't use the Photo ID method today. You can either wait until tomorrow to reply here (before your new Contest entry!) or, upload a new copy of the particular image (from your PC) into this thread. This produces a duplicate image in your Member Center; however, you don't have to make that duplicate visible in your Gallery. 4) If you're uploading a duplicate, maybe title it "For Forum" so it stands out in your Member Center, for easier housecleaning later... This can help direct viewers to find the original image in your gallery, when they want to leave a comment. Likewise, if you want to add a comment to a photo seen here, try to tell if it is a duplicate upload. As a courtesy, try to find the original image in the member's gallery and leave your comment there instead of on the duplicate---that way, if the duplicate is deleted later, the comment history isn't lost.
Good luck everyone!!!
