Does the shot have to have snow in it or can it just be taken on a winters day?

As long as it looks wintery then I believe it's fine.

 

[ATW Alex 101]

Ok thanks. I have some brilliant shots, but they arn't snowy but thought it could possibly count as they were taken on a freezing mid december weekend

 

[Jordy]

Trainfan344 is correct.

I'm trying to upload my photo to the gallery folder for this week but it keeps coming up with an error.

Error
No file was uploaded!
If you have really selected a file to upload, check that the server allows file uploads...

which is confusing me to hell, lol

cheers

just tried it with firefox and no luck at all.

Also last note, I also keep getting Error 500 if that helps anyone.

If you leave it too long, the session may have timed out
Also make sure you are using the www. version of the site as without the www. can be problematic

ok just tried it straight away, no waiting.

it uploaded the file 100% as chrome told me it did.

After it reached 100%, I was directed to the page URL: http://www.railforums.co.uk/gallery/db_input.php

which brought up a server error and error code 500.

I'll take it that it has uploaded if it hasn't then nevermind, i gave it a shot. thanks for all your help

 

[Trainfan344]

If it hasn't uploaded, it may be due to the fact that it needs to be resized.

 

[MCW]

Ok I'll give it ONE more shot before 19:00

YES it worked! thanks 344, much appreciated mate!

I resized it to 1200x900 which seems to work well with my photos from my 14mp camera, so I shall remember that for next time!

Thank you everyone!
