Hi,
I have posted exactly one image of the day. I thought that it would go into some sort of queue, and show up later. To my horror, it went live right away, and blotted out the existing image for that day.
How is this properly done? I don't want to step on anyone's toes again.
Thanks!

We don't really have a proper way. For a long time I was the only one allowed to post, and so people (mostly Bruce) would send me things, and I would manually queue them. Now it's a free-for-all and anyone can post there, but we do go back and unattach the attachments and fix the date Subject, etc.
For people who post regularly I have created an image uploader tool, but otherwise, I guess we would ask that you really think about whether something is mind-boggling enough to be IotD. Then post as well as possible wrt the Subject, etc. and avoid copying large images wholesale if we could get into copyright trouble. If you're not sure, send it to Bruce or myself as a suggestion, and if we don't post it, put it into Quality Images.
Thanks Undertoad,
I'll take your advice from now on. In the mean time, check out this little guy.

That's pretty good but it's not
a baby, pgymy, AND albino!
:D So many years of IotD.
Ok. To beat that I'm going to need a deep fried baby albino marmoset on a stick. I'll get back to you :)

Covered in bacon...
No need. The little guy likes bacon so I fed him lots of it. That went ok but now he's being very difficult about the stick.
no no no - To properly post the image of the day Grave was saying that it must be covered in bacon. :p:

Do you think Grave realizes that
every time he's in trouble, he's in "grave danger"?

OK. OK! Now, don't start burying this thread in puns. ....man...you guys are killing me.
Of corpse they're killing you, they're inter-minable.
Deep into a funny vein, that is!

And wherever I go, whatever I do...It's a 'grave situation'.

It's a scary world, my friend.
On the other hand, you should be good at making grave decisions.
