Vote for My Photos on the Weather Channel
Would you help me out? I would LOVE to see a few votes for my photos so I don’t look totally lame with zero votes, lol.
Click on the link below and below that huge image that says VOTE NOW and right below the Twitter, Google+ and FB icons, you’ll see a search box. Type Laura Macky and then hit ‘enter’. My photos will then show up. Choose one and Then click the heart to vote! I would sure appreciate it!! Only one vote per day is allowed unfortunately.
June 19, 2014 at 4:38 pm
L…..I tried the link, but it takes me to a very strange configuration of the weather channel page. There is not search only a place to enter zip code for weather forecast. Was going to send you a vote or two………..jim
June 19, 2014 at 4:40 pm
HMM…that’s strange. My husband just did it and it worked. 😦 Did you follow the instructions above the click here to vote?
June 19, 2014 at 4:40 pm
Would love to vote for you but the site accepts no input.
June 19, 2014 at 4:42 pm
This is strange. My husband just voted. Did you follow the directions I posted? Just curious because I’ll take this down if it’s not working.
June 19, 2014 at 4:45 pm
Yup and I tried it in Chrome, Firefox and Safari, must be a security setting. Many websites want something the latest browser security does not like and hence the problem. I would not take it down, many people will not have the same issue and will get into the site.
June 19, 2014 at 4:48 pm
I did get a few votes. I also updated to inform people that it won’t work on the ipad or iphone. I just tried it from those devices. 😦 Thanks for wanting to though!
June 19, 2014 at 4:42 pm
It would only let me vote for one. I’ll see if I can do another one tomorrow.
June 19, 2014 at 4:49 pm
Aww THANK YOU!!!!
June 19, 2014 at 4:51 pm
And it says you can vote every 24 hours. Here’s the site’s link to report a problem voting –

June 19, 2014 at 6:23 pm
I guess it’s unstable lol.
June 19, 2014 at 4:46 pm
Voted 🙂
June 19, 2014 at 4:49 pm
Thanks Sue!! I really appreciate it! 😀 😀
June 19, 2014 at 4:47 pm
Have voted on one but want to do more so I will
have to find a few more computers!! Really love the B&W tree on the hill but will do that one next. Good luck Laura 🙂
June 19, 2014 at 4:49 pm
Thank you so much!
June 19, 2014 at 4:54 pm
Hi Laura,
I think I voted for your “Morning light” with the deer. I see you can vote ever 24 hours so I’ll try and vote again tomorrow.
Good luck. You have some good pictures entered.
Leslie
June 19, 2014 at 5:15 pm
Thank you so much Leslie! I really appreciate your support 🙂

June 19, 2014 at 6:24 pm
Thank you so much for voting! I really appreciate it. 🙂
June 19, 2014 at 4:58 pm
You can only vote for one, I have done it, sorry, I don’t know if I have helped.
June 19, 2014 at 6:24 pm
Unfortunately people can only vote for one per day 😦 I’ll have to change the post so everyone knows. (after I view all these comments!) Thank you for voting Leanne 🙂
June 19, 2014 at 5:03 pm
Got you covered Laura – one vote/IP/day – My favorite (Dreaming) is up twice – potentially draining votes from each other. FYI.
June 19, 2014 at 6:25 pm
Thanks so much Robert! I appreciate you taking the time to submit your vote. :))))
June 19, 2014 at 5:07 pm
I did it!!! Nice photos as always!!!
June 19, 2014 at 6:25 pm
Thank you John! I appreciate it!!
June 19, 2014 at 5:13 pm
Voted!!!! Good luck Laura 🙂 ~ Dave
June 19, 2014 at 6:25 pm
Yay thank you Dave. :))) I can’t believe the support I’m getting.
June 19, 2014 at 6:47 pm
That’s what friends are for….:)
June 19, 2014 at 6:48 pm
in good times, and bad times….. 🙂
June 19, 2014 at 5:25 pm
You can only vote once per 24 hour period of time from 1 computer.
I will be voting for ya 🙂 Great photos Laura
Good luck,
-Steve
June 19, 2014 at 6:26 pm

You’re welcome
June 19, 2014 at 5:38 pm
I was only able to vote for one, so voted for “Dreaming by the Pond” as it had the most votes. Beautiful work as always, Laura!
June 19, 2014 at 6:27 pm
Ahhh thank you! Smart cookie! :))
June 19, 2014 at 6:40 pm
You’re quite welcome…good luck!
June 19, 2014 at 6:41 pm

June 19, 2014 at 6:27 pm
Thank you Lisa! I’m honored people are voting. Much appreciated. 🙂
June 19, 2014 at 6:00 pm

June 19, 2014 at 6:28 pm
whew! Thank goodness! Me included…I depend on my iPad. Thank you for voting!
June 19, 2014 at 6:32 pm
I don’t know if I did it right, but good luck, Laura. Martha.
June 19, 2014 at 6:34 pm
Thank you Martha 🙂 I appreciate it. I even had a hard time figuring out if I voted for myself! lol
June 19, 2014 at 6:39 pm
😀
June 19, 2014 at 6:03 pm
Did it! I vote for the dark clouds. Nice one!
June 19, 2014 at 6:28 pm
Yay thank you!!!!!
June 19, 2014 at 6:45 pm
Greetings Laura: I tried to vote for all of yours, but they only allow this computer to vote once every 24 hours – so I’ll come back. All your photos are very beautiful and deserve to be voted ! I’ll see if when I go back and pick another one they will still reject this IP address….I’ll let you know. V .
June 19, 2014 at 6:48 pm
Thank you so much Vera….I’ve been finding this out about only voting once a day. even if everyone just votes once, I am honored. Thank you SO much for this!
June 19, 2014 at 6:51 pm
PS: from your link Click here to vote I then put in your name in the search and all your photos came up together. The line at the top of your photos is only : http://www.weather.com/photos/contest
see if it goes to your photos – otherwise we admirers just do the search !…
June 19, 2014 at 6:57 pm
Oh I thought I typed that out in my blog about typing in my name in the search field. But yes, that is how it’s done. Thank you for typing it here for others to see. 🙂
June 19, 2014 at 7:03 pm
The link I copied does not go to yr. set of photos. Tricky Weather Channel ! The search is necessary to arrive at you set.
With all due respect to the many other good photographers I did not want to see bzillion other photos in order to find yours …
June 19, 2014 at 6:52 pm
Voted! It was so hard to pick just 1!
June 19, 2014 at 6:57 pm
Thank you Carrie! I appreciate your support. I wish they would allow more than one.
June 19, 2014 at 6:56 pm
I did for yin and yang. It was hard to make a choice.
June 19, 2014 at 6:58 pm
Thanks Tim! i appreciate it! I like that one. Its the only one I have framed in my house.
June 19, 2014 at 7:01 pm
What!!! You must have moved into a really small place. lol
June 19, 2014 at 7:25 pm
Well, honestly I don’t like seeing my photos everywhere. I know that’s strange. When I was playing piano all the time I didn’t like to play that much for others either. I only have one recording of myself. It’s a deeply seated issue with me.
June 19, 2014 at 7:36 pm
As to the visuals, I hope this does not include other’s homes.
June 19, 2014 at 8:04 pm
No others are just fine 🙂
June 19, 2014 at 6:59 pm
consider it done.
June 19, 2014 at 7:00 pm
aww thank you so much Gav! Much appreciated :))
June 19, 2014 at 9:24 pm
i voted on the dear.
June 20, 2014 at 5:54 am
Thank you, dear. 😛
June 19, 2014 at 7:23 pm
Laura I clicked on the link in your post and ti took me to a weather channel page, however I did not see any of what you described on that page no BIG VOTE HERE, and underneather the google I cons etc what you said should be there. I was kind of lost on that page. I will try again later, as you know you would have my vote.
June 19, 2014 at 7:26 pm
I’m sorry 😦 Some people are having issues with it for some reaosn and others are not and I’m not sure why. I think there are issues with the ipad and iphone. Don’t worry about it…just knowing you wanted to means a lot! Thank you 🙂
June 19, 2014 at 8:48 pm
Thank you Laura, I am using a Laptop,, and I am sorry to hear others are having the same problems, however I am glad to know it is just not me! However, you can be assured you would have my vote anytime you need it, as you are a wonderfully skilled photographer!
June 20, 2014 at 5:53 am
Thank you 🙂 Not sure what is going on since now I realize there is now rhyme or reason! Oh well…thanks for the attempts. 🙂
June 19, 2014 at 8:12 pm
Voted and it was registered…Sadly you can only vote once. It is an amazing competition, they have some really gorgeous images. Thanks for bringing this contest to my attention.
June 19, 2014 at 8:20 pm
Thank you for voting :). I wish we could vote for more than one. You are right….there are some amazing images!
June 19, 2014 at 9:18 pm
They took the Weather Channel off of Direct Tv:( I would vote for you… Now we get some poor cousin whether canal which has D weather people doing the weather.
June 20, 2014 at 5:54 am
hahaha omg that’s funny. Thank you though!
June 19, 2014 at 11:35 pm
I went there. Nothing showed up on the IPad!
June 20, 2014 at 5:55 am
yeah the ipad has it’s issues. It has to be done from a computer I found out or these long iphone/ipad instructions which I didn’t want to post because it would turn people away with so many instructions! lol Thank you anyway 🙂
June 20, 2014 at 12:09 am
Great pictures you have there! Gave you a vote 😉
June 20, 2014 at 5:56 am
Thank you for voting!! Much appreciated!
June 20, 2014 at 12:39 am
Voted, great set of images, hard to chose only one, I guess I will have to go back tomorrow. Best of luck with them Laura 🙂
June 20, 2014 at 5:56 am
Thank you so much Eddie! I can’t believe how many people are voting. I really appreciate your effort!
June 20, 2014 at 2:22 am
I also voted for you Laura, will go back tomorrow as well, I just hope to remember.
Good luck! 😀
June 20, 2014 at 5:56 am
YAY! Thank you Klaudia :))
June 21, 2014 at 12:28 am
welcome 🙂
I have noticed today that your photo ‘Dreaming by the Pond’ appears twice. is that the way it should be? 🙂
June 21, 2014 at 7:25 am
Yes they are in different categories. When all this started, I didn’t know voting would be restricted to one image per day otherwise I would’ve just posted one in the whole entire challenge! lol
June 20, 2014 at 3:02 am
I voted I voted! Lol For AGAINST ALL ODDS what an amazing photograph which I believe I committed about on your blog before. Best of luck!
~B.W.
June 20, 2014 at 6:01 am

Lovely set of photos, hard to choose just one! Love the surfers, captures the weather perfectly! Good luck 🙂
June 20, 2014 at 6:01 am

June 20, 2014 at 4:47 am

June 20, 2014 at 6:03 am
Thank you Rob. I really appreciate it!!
June 20, 2014 at 6:37 am
It was tricky but done. Good luck Laura! 🙂
June 20, 2014 at 6:50 am
Yeah they could’ve made it a “tad” easier! Thank you so much for voting!!
June 20, 2014 at 6:42 am
done
June 20, 2014 at 6:50 am
Thank you!!
June 20, 2014 at 6:45 am

June 20, 2014 at 6:50 am
Thank you so much! One can hope!
June 20, 2014 at 6:47 am
Great photos! it was not easy to get there, but i voted for “Dreaming by the Pond”. I wish you a lot of luck!
June 20, 2014 at 6:50 am
Sorry it’s so difficult. They did not make it easy. Thank you so much for your effort in voting!!
June 20, 2014 at 7:00 am
Laura, I am having trouble getting to vote. I really tried. I click on the photo to vote and then it takes me to nowhere land. Darn it! xx Amy
June 20, 2014 at 7:04 am
If you are on an iphone or an ipad it won’t work easily. I’m not sure why some people can vote and some can’t. It’s so frustrating. 😦 I tested it on my mac and then on my husband’s PC and it worked and I see some people can and some can’t. Oh well, you tried! That’s all I can ask. Thank you!
June 20, 2014 at 7:42 am
I am on an iPad. I’ll try later on my laptop, Laura. I’ll do my best! Love, Amy
June 20, 2014 at 8:38 am
Thank you….a friend of mine posted the instructions on Facebook for the iPhone and iPad…if you’re so inclined. lol 1. Touch link, then open in Safari
2. Turn phone sideways to view in landscape mode (horizontally)
3. Go to TOP of page and touch “Photos” (touch it again, if it doesn’t highlight. You may need to ‘find’ the tabs bar again by dragging the page down if the web site address search field pops up and covers it)
4. From the drop down menu, choose “Vote in photo contest”
5. Turn your phone back to normal vertical viewing
5. NOW touch the spyglass search icon to the right of “Recent Entries”, touch “Search Entries”, type “Laura Macky” and hit the ‘return’ key
5. Touch whichever photo you wish to vote on and *wait* till it completely loads. Now you will see the “Vote” button and just touch/click it!
I see that we can vote every 24 hrs. (I think we should all agree to vote on the same photo. Then she’ll rack up more points on one photo, instead of them being spread out.)

Thank you Hanna! I appreciate it. 🙂
June 20, 2014 at 10:06 am
This is great! I’ve found that that TWC knows my computer but doesn’t know who owns the computer sitting next to it. Same goes for the laptop on my wife’s desk. So three votes today, more tomorrow 😉
June 20, 2014 at 10:10 am
hahaha thank you!!! I was thinking it was tracking by IP address too. That is so generous of you!!!
June 20, 2014 at 11:31 am
Went there and typed in your name. Nothing was showing up but I noticed the cursor changed when I hovered it over the area below and just clicked and it brought up your image. I put in a vote for you! 🙂
How long is this by the way? I won’t be able to put any additional votes over the weekend but will next week if it’s still going on.
June 20, 2014 at 12:24 pm
I know the site is a big pain! Had I known everyone’s computer would react differently, I wouldn’t have posted this request. BUT…thank you SO much for being creative and voting for me!! OMG…I just noticed this goes till July 13th! Yikes!
June 20, 2014 at 11:59 am
Good luck Laura. I entered one photo in this contest too, but only one. 🙂
June 20, 2014 at 12:25 pm
Oh! How do I search for you? is it jamiechristine?
June 20, 2014 at 12:46 pm
Ha ha, I had to go check. Yep, it is under Jamie Christine. I like your entries better. ;- )
June 20, 2014 at 1:31 pm
I just voted! 😀
June 20, 2014 at 1:37 pm
Awww. Thank you. That’s so sweet of you. I will vote for you once my computer resets in the 24 hour period. 🙂 Love the deer photo. 🙂
June 20, 2014 at 1:42 pm
Thank you Jamie 🙂 In hindsight, I probably should’ve submitted only one so that all my votes went to one image. Live and learn!
June 20, 2014 at 1:45 pm
Next time! Are you going to enter the Bing photo contest? You could have a photo Bing.
June 20, 2014 at 1:52 pm
I don’t Bing, lol. That sounds so weird! I Firefox or sometimes Chrome LOL
June 20, 2014 at 3:15 pm
Sorry Laura, your photo is amazing but my vote went to the girl in bikini. hehe, no, I wanted to post before but it seems there is a problem with the browsers, at least today I could vote for your photograph (the search with your name just show one, perhaps did i do something wrong?:S) Anyway, good luck.
June 20, 2014 at 3:17 pm
hahaha…funny about the bikini. I think that site is terrible and I’m sorry you had trouble. You are not the only one but I have no idea why some can easily access and some can’t. Thank you for trying so hard and getting to the point where you could vote for one. 🙂
June 20, 2014 at 4:09 pm
Hi Laura, voted for surfers. Love it.
Laurie.
June 20, 2014 at 4:26 pm
Thank you Laurie :))
June 20, 2014 at 6:28 pm
You’re welcome, it was a tough choice though, the rest are great too.
June 20, 2014 at 6:53 pm
Thank you !
June 21, 2014 at 7:15 am
Done. You know how big I am of your stuff 🙂
June 21, 2014 at 7:27 am
Thank you SO much Alex! I appreciate it! 🙂
June 21, 2014 at 12:11 pm
No luck on my iPhone. Will try my laptop when I get home. Can’t wait to see your submissions. Which is your favorite?
June 21, 2014 at 1:30 pm
Aww thank you! You’d think the site would be more iPhone friendly! My favorite is the willow pic…the one with the most votes lol. I entered it twice, each for a different category although that’s not evident when you see my pics. They’ll just pop up as small viewable images. Click on one and then click on the heart 🙂 Thank you so much!! ❤
June 21, 2014 at 2:37 pm
Ok. I was able to vote on my laptop. I voted for the willow photo, which is beautiful, but I also loved the pine trees and sun stream.
June 21, 2014 at 2:44 pm
Why thank you so much! i’m really glad you enjoyed the photos enough to vote for me. Seriously, that was very nice!
June 21, 2014 at 2:44 pm
It was my pleasure.
June 21, 2014 at 3:26 pm
Beautiful photos! I would have voted for all of them but had to select only one.
June 21, 2014 at 3:35 pm
Thank you for voting! I had no idea only one per day was allowed but oh well. Thanks again!
June 22, 2014 at 2:47 am
Voted….:0). Good luck.
June 22, 2014 at 7:26 am
Thank you!
June 22, 2014 at 7:50 pm
Did it.
Voted for you. (dreaming by the pond)
(you knew I would)
Cheers,

June 22, 2014 at 7:57 pm
Aw thank you so much! I appreciate the vote!
June 22, 2014 at 9:58 pm
Spectacular, classic Laura shots!!!! I’d vote for pretty much any of them for pretty much anything, but promise to manage within the limitations of the competition as best I can. 😉 xoxo
June 23, 2014 at 6:28 am
Thank you so much! I appreciate it. 🙂
June 23, 2014 at 12:32 pm
VOTED!!! Good Luck Laura!! 🙂
June 23, 2014 at 3:06 pm
Thank you so much!!!
June 23, 2014 at 3:49 pm
Hey Laura…I tried to vote from my phone last week and it wouldn’t allow me 😦 But I just voted for “Somewhere over the rainbow!!” Yayy! Congratulations…your photos are beautiful…as always 🙂 Best of luck…hope you win!
June 23, 2014 at 4:57 pm
Thank you so much Lorrie! Yes, I think they fixed the issue. 🙂 Many people were complaining.
June 24, 2014 at 2:26 pm
Glad they fixed the glitch!! Good luck!!
June 24, 2014 at 2:48 pm
Thank you!!
June 23, 2014 at 4:58 pm
Complaining to weather.com that is!

June 24, 2014 at 9:11 am
Thank you! I should repost with a link to the photo with the most votes lol. I had no idea how this would work when i uploaded the pics 😦
June 24, 2014 at 10:46 am

It worked this time and you have my vote!

Thank you so much!
June 26, 2014 at 7:39 pm
Great photos, Leanne! I just voted for you again.
June 26, 2014 at 7:40 pm
You mean my photos right? :). Thank you!
June 26, 2014 at 7:41 pm
Sorry, that should have been just voted for you again, LAURA!! :-))
June 26, 2014 at 10:54 pm
Lol we both have L’s at the beginning of our names and don’t I wish I could shoot like Leanne!! Thank you SO much for voting. I really really appreciate it!
July 2, 2014 at 9:26 am
I laugh with the comment by Katrina (“…Leanne, I voted for you again”) because the other day I had several windows open and for mistake I put a comment to a photo in another blog :S (“Suddenly it brings memories of my childhood, the same way as the smell of salty sand makes you …”)
How is it going? I’m voting for your more voted photograph (because my favourite is the one with the rainbow) but it’s not clear when is going to finish the votation, and I feel like the guys in “Lost” that have to enter numeric sequences to avoid the end of the world.
July 2, 2014 at 10:55 am
LOL…this really is so funny. I don’t blame you for feeling “lost”. Imagine how I felt trying to figure out how to enter the contest. And then not being able to access it in the beginning. The whole thing has been confusing but now I know that voting goes until July 13. hahahahaha! You are not off the hook yet!!! haha omg I can’t stop cracking up!
July 5, 2014 at 4:30 am
Laura,
Hi, and all the best with the competition. I also tried to vote from you – am travelling, and relying solely on my iPad – but also repeatedly ran into glitches trying to vote. Will try again, but am sure you’ll see numerous votes from readers and non-readers alike.
July 5, 2014 at 7:11 am
Unfortunately I found out that the iPad is the only device that has a hard time now voting. But don’t worry…I’m sure that caused some frustration and for that I apologize. I REALLY appreciate you even trying! Thank you. It means a lot to me. Hopefully you are enjoying your travels. :)))
July 6, 2014 at 7:39 am
Ah! Technology’s grand, isn’t it, when it cooperates? You’re welcome, and thanks for the good travel wishes – apart from trying to connect with airlines re more than half a week without luggage, we’re having a great time! 😀
July 6, 2014 at 7:56 am
Awesome! Glad you’re having fun! 🙂
July 10, 2014 at 7:52 am
I think I am the only one voting for the fawn. . . . or is it faun. . . . .
July 10, 2014 at 5:39 pm
Aww thank you for voting. 🙂 I really appreciate you doing that for me! Knowing I have support is wonderful. 🙂
