Skin Upload Problem

from WinCustomize Forums

The Last 2 times i uploaded skins ( Wallpaper & Logon ) 

when I submit it and then go back and click on it to check it

to make sure I got the spelling right etc. etc.

It opens up the Gallery for that item and NOT the skin

so I can't double check it before you get it for approval ...

 

Once they were approved , then when I clicked on them the 

skins opened up like normal ... on the skin and not the gallery ...

 

I tried 4 different browsers and the same thing on all happens 

Anyone else having this problem ? 

 

Got a Fix for this WC ?  :\

You lost me.  Links might help.

It sounds like this was a side effect of an update we pushed yesterday.  We're looking into it now.

TouchTasks - Access tasks with ease on Windows touchscreens.

when i submit a skin and it's not  approved and i click on it 

I get the Gallery for that skin not the skin

Once it's approved and click on the skin I get the Skin 

and not the Gallery 

I can't show a link because you would just see the Gallery

for that skin - this just started happening in the last few days ... very odd

never did this before 

This just happened again today on 2 skins i submitted

 

The Skins still get submitted OK and get approved and posted OK

and then all works as it should after approval ..

but it's an odd buggy thing that's weird - 

No one else having the same problem ?

We pushed a site update yesterday to fix a skin exploit and other issues.  You can't view or download a skin until it's approved by a moderator.

We're not going to change that as people have been abusing the skin ratings and other things.

Looks like we've figured out what happened, though we may not be able to push an update until Monday.  Until then, you'll need to soldier on, but it should be fixed by then.

I will mention though one last thing ..

sometimes when i upload a larger skin ( file size ) 

it doesn`t show a file size , so i have to re-upload it a 2nd time

and then it does show the file size

sometimes a moderator will tell me no file size showing 

that i must re-submit 

 

So now we won't be able to see if a file size is showing 

this could be a problem , maybe ?

causing skins to have to be re-submitted ?

 

Just thinking ahead here , that's all 

 

Thanks WC

If there is a problem with the upload, we will notify you.  Until approved, you can't view or rate skins anymore.

Alright, we're going to tweak it so the skin author can check their own skin but nobody else until approved.

This WC is some place. Always doing what they can to fix or help the members along with the members helping each other. If you couild only roll my age back a bit that would be great, say 10 years but keep me retired.
