Important! - If you have already signed up and received a member ID, please DO NOT fill out this form again. If have lost your password or forgotten your Login ID, or are having trouble contributing photos, please try the Lost Password Retrieval Form or contact the Photo Archive maintainer for assistance. He will be happy to help out.

IMPORTANT! If you are using Yahoo! or America Online (AOL) as your email provider, YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO CREATE A PHOTO ARCHIVE ACCOUNT. Yahoo! and AOL both employ rather draconian email spam filtering policies that at times cause ALL email from the NERAIL Photo Archive to be blocked from their users. You therefore will not be able to receive the confirmation email required to activate your Photo Archive Contributor Account. This by the way is despite the fact that the NERAIL Photo Archive is not a source of Spam, and has never been the source of even a single, solitary piece of Spam. Yahoo! and AOL just do not like the idea of small, independantly operated email servers such as mine existing on the Internet. I have spent many, many hours trying to work with both Yahoo! and AOL to resolve these issues, however they are simply unwilling to do so. If you are using either Yahoo! or AOL for email, please provide an alternate email address in the form below, and please consider changing to another email provider, one which treats their customers fairly and which has more reasonable filtering policies that allow the free exchange of email as was the original intent of the Internet's creators!

Login ID: Please select a login ID. Your login ID is what you will need to enter each time you contribute a photograph, so the system will know who you are. It should be something short (maximum 12 characters), and easy for you to remember. It may contain letters and numbers only, no other characters or spaces. Good examples are "jeffm", or "trains202". Password: Please select a password. Your password is your "secret key" that keeps other people from being able to contribute photographs under your name. It should be something easy for you to remember, but difficult for other people to guess. A good example might be "tippy*73".   E-Mail Address:    Please enter your e-mail address. This address MUST be valid, as a confirmation e-mail will be sent to it before your new member ID is activated.   The information below will be visible to visitors of the Photo Archive when they view your photographs. Most of it is optional, but recommended.   First Name: Please enter your real first name. Please note that phoney names such as "Bugs Bunny" are not acceptable, and that the Photo Archive maintainer may remove the member IDs and photographs of anyone contributing photos using such a name. Last Name: Please enter your real last name. If your name includes a title such as "Jr" or "III", include it as part of your last name, and it wil be displayed properly within the Photo Archive.   City: * Please enter the city or town you are from. State: * Please enter the state you are from. You may enter it as a two-letter abbreviation or the full state name. Non-US members may enter their state, province, or other similar information here. Country: * Please enter the country you are from, i.e. "United States", "Canada", etc.   * = optional information.
