How do I submit a Dock Background?

from WinCustomize Forums

Hey everyone! Im brand new here and I have been coming here for a little while now using a lot of docklets and backgrounds and icons and i thought it was time to give back to the community so I made a dock background but when I submitted it I got this error:

 

Your skin has failed to upload.

Error code: UploadDetails

 

I would like to submit it! I notcied it said "* Skin File (.dockzip)" but I didnt understand what a .dockzip was so I uploaded a zip file with the backgrund and ini file.

 

Help?

A zipped file is fine. Do you happen to be running Flash 10? If so, try uploading using a computer that has an earlier version of Flash.

Flash Player? I have an older computer that is running flash player version 8 not 10 like me. Ill try doing it on that.

When Flash 10 first came out, all of Stardock's sites had trouble with it. Most of the problems have been fixed, but I'm not sure if the uploading problem has. I run flash 10 on my 2 main computers, and I have not uploaded from them for months.

Ever since I got Flash 10 (with cs4) on my main computers, my uploads have been done with my older XP machine which still has Flash 8. Flash 9 also works, though.

Hope this helps. :)

Very odd. That could explain the very slow site too. Or it may just be slow servers.

I believe the slow site is mostly due to the fact that there is a site overhaul in progress. Kind of like road work, ya know? We still get to browse while they work, but sometimes it's slower for us. It'll end up okay.
