(90,798 posts)So I don't know why it isn't showing here.
I did delete some of my Bluejay photos from my account but both "Blue on Ice" photos are still there.
I'll check my account again.
Sorry.
ETA:
I checked again and it is still on photobucket. So I don't know why it isn't showing. I know it was showing earlier.

(90,798 posts)so I guess it isn't a surprise that it glitched on my photo library.
Oh well...
Johnny Noshoes
(1,977 posts)I fixed it. I used the wrong link when I first set up the finals. It should be the right one now.

Aerows
(39,961 posts)and Winter Solitude should get honorable mentions, because in any other competition, they would have won.
Winter Carolina was just that good that it precluded anything else.
Blue on Ice was lovely, and Winter Solitude was, too.
