A gentle reminder folks...
There are size limits to submitted photos. It's in the rules, lower right sidebar in purple. Please don't exceed 1000 pixels on the widest side and please keep the resolution to 72. Many submissions so far this month have had to be resized, which makes the simple task of posting them onto the blog about twice as long. Also, please include full information with each submission, i.e. name and blog/website.
Thanks for your participation!

View Larger Map
You'll find an interactive map of the island of Corsica above, though you can't access the little yellow pegman from that map. Use the link below it "View Larger Map", and the map will appear on your monitor; drag the little Yellow Man onto the map, step onto Corsica, and start exploring. Find an interesting subject/area. Change it all you want. Or paint it straight up as you see it. Instructions are in the sidebar to the right. Any questions, ask 'em in the comments or email me directly.
