Hello to everyone, :)

as previously announced, we've changed the submission system. We have no longer submission periods.

As of today you can submit max. 2 submissions every month - on the day of your choice.
Please submit your photos to the "member submission" folder.

Furthermore I want to apologize to all those whose submissions have expired during the last few months. We are short on active moderators (and still searching for new ones) and we took the necessary action to change the voting system from 3 to 2 votes.

Happy submitting!
Blaumohn :butterfly:

You can read the submission rules in the following blog entry. The favorite gallery is open for suggestions by moderators, and not for their own works.
