[Brad]

The entry deadline has been extended for 1 day. We are looking for photos of chameleons drinking.

Been trying to capture that moment whenever Simba's mister comes on, but he just never seems to want a drink when the camera is at the ready

Reckon I'll have to hold out for an easier theme to capture

Having a hard time deciding on your favorite?

Comparing the original size of each image can help and is recommended. Photos should not only be judged by the chameleon displayed, but also on composition and image quality.

Tough one this month! Couldn't get any good shots. Lots of cute pics this month! Best of luck .

Wish I had seen this early enough to enter - Zaphod has been doing some pretty entertaining drinking poses this last month, standing up on his tippy toes to lick from the mister puddle on the top screen. Lol.

I don't mean to be ridiculous here, but I can never seem to find a way to cast my vote when I'm on here on my phone. I've tried from my Tapatalk app, and from safari link in email notification. Where is it that we vote exactly? Not this thread? Is it a flash based thing or something? (I'm on an iPhone)

The polls are at the top of the thread. To be honest I've never tested the polls with tapatalk and will need to check it out.

This month.......I voted for Guinevere, she sure does like that water....and she has a phat tongue.....

See, where exactly at the top of the thread? I see the link to view entries, a link to submit a photo, links to view rules... But no link to vote. I see the same things in safari as Tapatalk, ( its just harder to get there in Tapatalk cause I can't click on link in tapatalk, it makes me choose to go out and go to it in safari).
Anyways, still don't know where exactly I go to vote. So I never do.
I have voted before, but I think every time I have it's because somebody sent me a message saying "we'd love your vote" and then gave me a link to the voting page. If nobody does that, I can never find it on my own. Lol

The only thing I ever use to vote is my iPhone you just click on the link to vote and it takes you to a list of all the photos with bubbles next to them. You click the bubble of the photo you want and then push submit.

I've voted from my iPhone several times. It doesn't give me any problems.

Were you using tapatalk or just a normal browser? The complaints seem to be coming from tapatalk users.
