Well, today I made bronze (not that it means much) after submitting since March.  It's not such a big accomplishment now that they've dropped from 500 to 250 - but still an accomplishment because I have a pathetic number of photos there (6!).   Out of my 250 sales, 228 of them are of the same photo.   Now, if I could only duplicate that exact success with 100 more I'll be very happy!  (Anyone know the secret?)

I took a little break trying, but finally sent a couple in this weekend.  (We'll see if I've improved at all.)  Rejections there are so much more difficult to take when it takes so much effort to submit!
