It seems each time I log in for the last day or 2, I see the same recent uploaded pics, if I select 'PC' (and, of course 'recent'). And I do know new pics for PC games were uploaded, because I did a number myself. They've been approved and are now silently added to their game, without the few moments of glory on VGG's front page
Not a life threatening bug, still something which surprises me. Btw, this goes for both my IE8 and FF 3.6.8 browsers.

Have they been linked to any PC release of the games? If not, the system won't know they're PC images.

That must be the problem.
However, how do you tie a sceenshot of, for instance, the title sceen, to a version?
Look at Codename: Panzers: Phase One; it has an Italian and an English version, both PC CD-ROMs. The title screen (and probably even all other screens, because I suspect only the manual to be in Italian) is the same in both releases. Do you tie them to both, or none?
(Appearantly this should've been a 'how to' thread, not a 'bug' one)

The same way you tie any other picture.

If you're the one who uploads a picture, be it a screenshot or whatever else, just tie it to whatever version you yourself are using.
As a matter of personal policy, I hesitate to tie images uploaded by other users, regardless of how sure I was of which version of a game they belonged to.
Case in point, I just recently found out HPS Simulations used different artwork on some of their later print runs.
This is why it is extremely important for people to go back to their images, once they are approved, and tie them to the correct version of the game, even if there is only one version.
Unfortunately, many people aren't doing this and I'm afraid that soon there will be slews of images that no one will be able to link to their correct game versions.
ps - All IMO, since I'm not an admin, I just play one on TV
