Problem uploading images to VPHOT

I'm using the wizard to attempt to upload files to VPHOT.  After the test image is loaded, the wizard flags one of the fields red, so I correct the filter type.  I then press NEXT, and am asked to upload images.  I upload a single image, and after upload press NEXT.  The image uploads but does not appear in the queue for processing or in my image list!  One of my mentorees is reporting the same problem.  Any ideas greatly appreciated.

Other missing headers?

Gary,

My suspicion is that there are other headers missing which help vphot match the image with your vphot telescope account.

The wizard is only looking at headers which identify the target location and the filter.

We could zoom/skype to resolve this issue? You could also send me the image as an attachment.
