Hmmm, not sure what's going on. I can't see a time, only a date. Hopefully the issue goes away soon. If not, send a message: http://www.projectnoah.org/contact
it also does not display the pictures when I switch pics.
The comment which I just made shows as it was made " 20 hrs ago"!
Hi Cindy, I reloaded this one,because the colors seemed off on the other pic. My computer is having problems though,no idea and when ever I enter a comment it implies that the comment was made 5 days ago.At-least ,that;s how it shows up here.
Hi Emma, it looks like your original spotting of this fly was deleted and you re-submitted it. Is the site working ok for you?
