8th Annual Fractal Art Competition 2015 - Announcement

[cKleinhuis]

Ok thanks.

I think for after the submission period comment-updates are a good alternative. But it was just to ask if it would follow the rules.

use the time to polish the entry until voting starts, the issue with that is rather that it might stay unnoticed if something has been changed afterwards,
using comments is viable for that then ...

Is it allowed to replace one of my entries with a better fractal? Just curious since I've just rendered a fractal that I think is superior to any of my entries.

you can change your entry as long as the submission period ends! after that any changes are prohibited!

There works something wrong in the gallery. I tried to submit image (http://www.fractalforums.com/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=17672) for Competition but it has no thumbnail. I have uploaded image once again, but there is still the same problem.

I'll have a look.

We recently had an issue with a single image giving a strange, oddly cropped, thumbnail.  Perhaps this is related?

The last one was resolved when the user opened and resaved the image in an image editor.  No idea why that worked or what happened, but it's worth mentioning.

I do know we have no way to regenerate thumbnails, so this is definitely a job for Christian to look into!

Feel free to try opening and re-saving, then upload again.  If it works, I'll just delete the old one but think it should stay until Christian can see it as it is, just in case it helps narrow the problem down.  Uploading again wont be an issue and I may be able to hide the old one without removing it if he doesn't show up and see this.

Resaving helped. Now it is displayed properly. Thanks for help

the gallery is behaving oddly, memory should be enough, last time we had a problem with a smaller png (8mb) but a larger jpg (11 mb) worked, so, jpg seem to be working better for large images here

Hi,  I have tried several times to post an image in Wild Style. It hasn't made it yet. Am I doing something wrong? The image is called 'Jabberwock' and it comes from Lambarie (Patricia Scott)

Thanks.
