FlyItLikeYouStoleIt,
This thread is for forum issues. My response to PatW was to indicate that there was nothing wrong with the Forum or Gallery, but, rather, a mixup in communication.
We receive a lot of submissions to Reader Gallery--far more than will allow us to respond to each submission. In addition, the photos require correction and the captions written and/or edited. Finally, the number of photos we receive means that it sometimes takes a while for a submission to hit either the magazine page or the website's gallery.
So the best course of action is to have patience.
Thanks,
Tim
