Best Place to Upload
If your creation was made with the help of a tutorial or book originating from this website, the best place to upload your photos is in the comment section of that tutorial. The comment section can be found by scrolling down to the bottom of the page. Every comment is enabled with the option to upload a JPEG photo.

Getting Featured
Sometimes, a shared photo is so phenomenal, I showcase it in a video, tutorial or Hall of Fame. Occasionally, I approach an artist whose work I admire and ask if I can feature it. Here are some examples of the cakes, gingerbread houses and artists that have blown my mind.
