photo problem

Hi, i have a question about the photo . i took a digital picture on a CD on the 31 october and after that when i checked the photo it shows the date 5 may 2007 , i think it is the camera not adjusted date . so is it ok to send this photo or not , by the way the photo validator accepted the photo.
 
since it's a passport style photo then as long as the date stamp doesn't appear in it (and it shouldn't) you'll be fine. When I last entered my camera was stuck on 01/01/1999 (oh yeah and it still is).

By the way sugar pie I am rooting for you. I hope you win this year.. Good luck!
 
Is the date shown on the photo itself? If so, you would be better off taking a new picture where the date/time is not included on the picture itself. (Or you could try removing the date by cropping the file accordingly, as long as you still conform to the specs.)

On the other hand, if you are you referring to the creation/modification date of the file then don't worry about it since that info is not being used by KCC for anything (and even if so, it would not be very reliable since it could be manipulated very easily).
 
the date is not shown on the picture itself but when you move the mouse on the picture it shows date picture taken 5 may 2007 but on the properties of the file it shows the real date 31 october 2008 .
