      Hi - I am the pool sweeper for the Wish I'd Taken That! (INVITE ONLY) Group

      Please note that in our group, all photos must receive an INVITE before being posted to the pool (our COMMENT code is not enough - please contact the person who used the comment and ask them to change it to an INVITE if you honestly believe they used the comment by mistake).

      Our Invite Pool Sweepr software detected that this image was added to our pool, but was not able to detect an INVITE and has removed the photo from our pool.

      * * COMMENT / AWARD CODES ARE NOT INVITES * *

      This does not means that your photo is not worthy of our group. If you think your picture should get an invite to our group, you may post your picture on the Invitation Requested Thread that the group provides.

      This image was swept and removed AUTOMATICALLY and may not have been reviewed by a human. Sometimes images are invited with an incorrectly copied code, or due to some server glitch the Sweepr program doesn't see the invite. If you feel this image has been removed in error, we certainly apologize, and would welcome a chance to help you get it reposted to our pool. Please contact one of the group Admins or Moderators so we can review the cause of the mistake.

      It is pointless to block admins or moderators (and you will be banned from the group if you do so) - this message is not personal to you so please don't take it as a personal attack.
