Q: Why is there a delay between when I submit my photo and when it appears on the site?
We want everyone to be able to enjoy this site, so we individually approve each photo in order to weed out obscene, harassing or copyrighted material. We try to be quick about it, but sometimes it takes longer than others (for example, overnight). During the day, it should take less than an hour for your photo to show up.

Q: How do I report an inappropriate photo?
A: If an inappropriate photo has slipped through the process, email us and we'll check it out.

Q: How do I create my own galleries?
A: Photos are grouped by topic, location and tags. If you wish to group your photos, give them all the same unique tag.

Q: How do I edit a photo?
A: You can edit any photo that you submitted. Go to that photo and click on the "edit" link next to the photo title.

Q: How long will my photo stay online?
A: As long as your photo doesn't violated our terms of use policy, it'll stay online for as long as we offer this service -- or until you delete it.

Q: Will my photo appear in the newspaper?
A: Maybe. By posting your photos on this site, you give us permission to use them in print.

Q: Will my photo be edited before it appears on the site?
A: Your photo might be resized to fit our pages, but it will not be edited.

Q: How do I customize my user profile icon?
A: Click on your user name to see your profile. Once you are on your profile page, click edit. You can upload a new user profile icon on the profile edit page.

Q: How do I change my password?
A: Click on "My Account", then click on "Edit". You can change your password on the "Account Settings" page.
