Thanks, Dan! I, also, believe (due to the failure of a couple recent submissions) that the standards may have been tweaked upward in recent weeks. I recently took down a two or three offerings that I had submitted primarily for their influence on the count. No doubt encouraged by the apparent ease of acceptance at that time. Ok with me. It may force me to stiffen my standards.

I find, however, that the standards seem to be a lot higher the last three weeks, at least judging my hje percentage of my submissions that have been accepted. They still, however, seem more favorably disposed towards flower macros than the other types of images that I have submitted. I really like your struggling pine image, and I hope that you keep struggling, like your pine, to get it into the PPG. It belongs there.
