Okay, I guess I have to stop participating in these competitions until I can figure out what the moderator is talking about. I received the following email and I don't have a clue what it means.

Harry, The mods would like to remind you that, in the "Share" areas IMAGE POSTING RULES specifically state: "Do not use the forum as your image gallery, post only the best of the best and link to the rest." This means we allow 2 attachments by the OP per thread, OR 8 embedded (linked) images, OR a combination of 2 attachments + 6 embedded (linked) images, totaling 8 per thread. (Maximum 1280 pixels on any side.) You can always just post a link to more, though, or better yet, post a link to a gallery so we don't have to click on each image link. Some exceptions are group threads, like "Show Me...", "Post your best...", equipment reviews, Tutorials, etc. You may add a few additional photos if requested, but only in a reply to other member's post and request. Please be more careful to follow the rules in the future. PG

It's been fun and hopefully I can participate again soon.

I am a bit baffled too. Perhaps the mods comments apply to another topic an not to A-Z No Rules.

The mods' reminder doesn't apply to this A-Z thread, where each person posts one image at a time and waits for someone else to do the next letter. A-Z is among the "some exceptions" allowed in the rule. Apparently, in other subforums, you've sometimes put too many images in one post or too many posts in one thread. I don't know where this happened. I have many subforums filtered out, and I don't look at everything in the ones I left visible.

You might ask the mod who sent the note to give you a link to a place where you added images too abundantly.
