I will preface this by saying that I know that this is probably a very busy week for posting pics, but is it normal that a newly posted cake might not make it onto the front page?

I only ask because last night I posted a couple of pics and they never appeared on the front scroll - there were some pics posted for a long time and then the 5 newest pics popped up on the front page skipping 7 pics that were also new posts and next in line behind the ones that were currently on the screen when I posted. Hope that makes sense. And I was refreshing my browser to make sure I was seeing the most updated home page.

Just wondering - not whining or complaining just asking since I have never uploaded when there is a lot going on!

It is very possible.

Yes it is possible. If I remember correctly jackie and heath have the front page photos set up to update every 5 mins with the newest photos. So if there were more than 5 uploaded in that time frame then some would be skipped.

However I do know that a lot of people go into the Galleries and then to "Newest Photos" which brings up all of the most recent uploads in order of how they were uploaded. So it won't be missed, it will just take a little longer to get seen!
