Kindra, title your picture with whatever title you want to give it. Tag your picture with whatever the contest number is for that particular contest. The number for the current contest is:TAG 1130. Then, on the home page of Cakes We Bake page, there is a typewriter picture that says: Add content, or there is also, over in the left hand bottom corner of the slide show of new cakes on this same page, where it says: add photos. You can then add your picture right there at either one, and it will be entered into the contest by the moderators, so don't expect to see it right away. It is not automated. Keep in mind, that if you are tagging and naming your photo and wanting to add it to the gallery of pics, you might want to do that before adding the content. You can do it in editing too, just saying....

Hi Kindra - you need to upload your photo to the main photo section of the site by clicking the "Photo" tab at the top, then clicking the +Add button in the top right.  Select your photos and hit "Upload" again once they are listed in the box.  After your photos are uploaded you'll be taken to a section to add titles, descriptions and tags to your photos. We ask that you give your photo a title and take a minute or two to describe the cake.  In the TAGS section (lower right) put 1130 to enter the contest.  Please, only one cake per contest and only photo per cake.  Then hit "Save".  The moderators scan the site daily and use that tag to find contest entries and feature them.
