I can't check that this morning as I uploaded something yesterday so it won't still be there for me. Perhaps someone else might check if it's there still?

There's a red 'enter competition' box near the top of the relevant competition page. After that it's much the same as uploading to the gallery.

Image Sync - Has anyone got it working properly?

Re: Android version.

Hi all,
I just want some comments regarding a problem that I am having with Image Sync on Android - I have used 2 different makes of phones but the problem is exactly the same.
My phone connects with the K1 without any problem and I can see all the images already on the SD card but am unable to get any image through Live View. I can change all the settings on the camera (through the phone) but there's just a black screen where the live image should be. I even get the focal point 'square' and it even makes a beep when the camera focuses at a new spot.
Firmware ver 1.10
Android ver 5.0.1
Thanks for your comments.
I'm sure I did have this working but all I get now is a blank Live View. Is there something I need to turn on to enable Live View properly. I can control the camera, but not see the image!

If you are intending to enter, a reminder that there is just one more day to do so. Don't leave it 'till Monday, you'll be too late!

The Bessaflex isn't actually a Pentax body so it is highly likely those here won't be over familiar with it with them being mainly Pentax users (the clue is in the site name!) You might be better off asking that on a more general photographic forum that specialises in older film cameras rather than a brand specific one such as this. People here may be able to assist with any Spotmatic queries though!
A Google search will bring up several articles about the camera which may help you, such as: http://petapixel.com/2013/04/03/review-the-bessaflex-tm-is-a-beautiful-and-refin...
Welcome to your first post on the forum!

Glad you've got it solved. Welcome to the forum by the way, you can always upload some photos if you wish and take part in competitions etc. It's quite a friendly community and you don't have to have the latest camera!

Can you remember when it last worked and what you might have installed in the meantime to give a clue?
Some other program may have overwritten something, ie two system files with the same name but really not the same!

Also some ideas here:

and this:

and yet another (this looks to be XP related);
http://ask-leo.com/how_do_i_uninstall_software_that_doesnt_provide_a_way_to_unin...

Another thought is to try something like Ccleaner to clean up the system and registry.

Doing a full system restore means you may not be able to get the many Windows updates that will have been available so may make the PC less secure.

Perhaps the site's picked up a redirect hack. I noticed one member on the site showing as having been a member for 46 years just now! Is that possible or evidence of hacking?
No site should infer a link in a person's post. Bad form.
I may say I'm going on an Amazon cruise; see: link
The word in red is nothing to do with my (pretend) cruise.

Is it just me that can see the word amazon in red with a link to their home page? Perhaps I've picked up a redirect virus from them.
I get something similar on the American Pentax forum too with peoples' links redirecting to B&H.
