I guess they charge a fee so that people don't send in tons of entries.
That url doesn't work for me. Maybe it's down.

What's up with the June photo contest?

Hmm Wonder if it is being blocked on your end? Works fine here. I thought the same thing about the fee. Also probably helps to fund the prizes!

Hopefully the June POTM will be up by the end of the day today.
