Adding to what Eric said ...

Over 400 chips have been submitted to the ChipGuide since the submission program went live about a month ago. About 1/2 have already been processed. Submitted chips can either be: Accepted, Rejected (usually SPAM), Duplicate (chip is already on the ChipGuide), Error (usually image not submitted or too large) or In Process. Once your chip has been processed you will get an email informing you of the status.

Please note that once a chip is processed, it will show up on the ChipGuide the next day. There are Production and Development versions of the ChipGuide. There is a once a day process that moves all the updates from Development to Production.
