I took a photo today and was informed that it was outside the challenge dates. And no, my camera date is correct.

hmn. seems it was accepted after all.

What date did you enter in the drop-down on the submission page ... as we (especially Hawaiians) have found out, those drop-downs are prone to inducing incorrect entries.... ...

don't know about that, but the problem happens when I try to retitle, which I always do, and save the original file name in the details box. so I renamed my file, but still, wtf.

oh. so I didn't enter a date, the date was automatic: taken, I presume, from my exif, as were the details (ISO, A and S, and camera).

It's a little late . . . but maybe I'll go take one. I have a sink . . .

Hmmm ... usually that date is automatically considered (and pre-entered) the same as the upload date unless you change it -- I didn't think the date was extracted from the EXIF (since EXIF isn't required on the entry file).

well, I didn't enter the exposure date, I never have. (and how could you, by the way?) so presumably it is indeed entered automatically, from whatever in the file, if not the exif, which I think SHOULD be required by the way, because youth wants to know.

You enter the date from the three drop=down lists under the Details text box. I guess if your file doesn't have EXIF data the default is the upload date. My workflow doesn't preserve the EXIF so I must never have noticed if the date was extracted from that.
