Hi, I added a photo yesterday for the fall cake contest, but it's not showing up. It's titled Pumpkin wedding cake (and I put the `1025F' at the end of it......) Thanks

Featuring the photos is a manual process for the moderators. Just tag your photo 1025 and we should find it in 24 hrs. If it isn't featured after a day please send the one of the moderators a message -- Deah, Eileen S, JJ Becker, Sherry Qualls, Theresa Happe or CakeFan.

PLEASE TAG YOUR PHOTO WITH 1025 ONLY. THE "F" IS AN INDICATOR TO THE MODERATORS THAT THE PHOTO HAS ALREADY BEEN FEATURED. IF YOU ADD THE "F" IT WILL NOT GET FEATURED.

Jaci - if you can't travel then you won't be able to redeem the prize. But let me tell you, if I was given one of these prizes I would do EVERYTHING in my power to get myself there. These are awesome classes and probably an opportunity I would never get if I were paying for it.
