As some of you have probably noticed (and many have already used), there is some new functionality in the Gruesome Gallery area.
You are now able to submit photos for the gallery (and contest) by uploading directly to the site. Once approved, it will appear on the site and you'll be sent a direct link to your photo, so you can show it off to friends.
I'm rather excited about putting this feature into use, as it was a lot of technical work to get it running (most of the coolest features you don't even see).
But perhaps the greatest reason for me to be excited is that I no longer have to sort through several thousand email attachments. With the hardest and most tedious parts handled automatically, this means photos can be added to the site much quicker.
In fact, there are already over 60 photos in the 2009 Pumpkin Gallery, including carvings of patterns released mere days ago!
So if you've already started carving and photographing your work this season, feel free to try it out and upload your photos. Anything submitted will be considered for the 2009 contest.
