The submissions page is up and running. Sorry it took me awhile to get it going, I was trying to figure out the coding. A BIG thanks to Rick Dunn and Scott Bacon for their help.
More good news, the park has given us two extra months for our exhibit which will now run from September 16, 2006 to mid-May 2007. The park has over 300,000 visitors annually meaning the exhibit could potentially be seen by nearly 200,000 people. This is going to be a great opportunity for RMNP and I hope as many people as possible can participate.

Here is a picture of the art display area in the Visitor's Center.

A hearty thank you Adam for organizing this event. The job of the moderator is often thankless, underappreciated, and time-consuming. I know that has been especially true of late around here, as no one really ever easily embraces big changes. But you've been a champion through much of the criticism, and have soldiered on to put this show together for the benefit of the entire RMNP group when many lesser people, including yours truly, would have said the the hell with it and them.
I dare say that along with the State capitol event that Bill has set-up, this show will be the best display that any group associated with NPN has ever done, and without your hard work this show could have never happened (and I don't say that to minimize other shows previosuly organized, just recognition of the location in a well-traveled to national park). So I look very much forward to this show as I think the entry requirements are quite unique and interesting, and they will force many photographer (including yours truly) to think outside of the box. Given the overwhelming talent here at RMNP, I expect to see some remarkable work for this show!

I agree 100%, I can't wait to see the submissions.
The submissions are starting to roll in! To those of you that have submitted I apologize for the delay in getting your images posted, I have been out of town and I've had other commitments to meet.
