    Submitting photos for Holiday Lights Contest

    Has anyone been able to submit any photos for the Holiday Lights Contest?  I have tried 5-6 times to submit a photo and get a .NET server error every time.  Talk about frustrating and you have to enter all of the data over every time!  It isn't worth the trouble if it is going to be this difficult.

    I tried it with IE6, IE7, and Firefox with two different computers.  The error is a .NET server error and doesn't appear to be browser related.  The error I am getting is shown below.  I tried again tonight and get the same error.

    Server Error in '/' Application.

    Invalid Post Name format. Must match pattern ^[0-9]*[^0-9].{0,224}$

    I'm sorry you weren't able to successfully upload your photo.  From the error message, it appears that there was a problem with the name of the submission.  Can you please tell me what information you were providing when uploading the picture (title, description, tags, filename)? 

    We want you to be successful at submitting your photo.  If providing this information turns out to not be helpful, you can email the picture to me and I will make sure your entry is properly submitted.

    Thanks

    Good for you for hanging in there.  I would have just cut and run after that head ache.
