I agree, Jack. Here's a quote from the FAQ:
"Q: How will I know if my photos have been accepted for display? How long will it take to find out? A: After you have submitted your photos, please re-visit your account over the next 7 days to be alerted of photo submission status." So they actually promise a review within 7 days. If they can't keep their own deadlines, then what I need is accurate information. Without having to ask. I wouldn't mind if they had longer deadlines, actually, as long as the messages they send are loud and clear.
