| | Posted: | | | | Why are people submitting POSTAGE STAMP-size cover images?
Contributors are replacing awesome, hi-rez images with TINY ones. Make sure and compare before accepting new images.
Those that are submitting them - STOP IT!
Cheers,

| | Posted: | | | | Should be if they've 'overwriting' existing hi res scans.
I suspect the problem here is they're new contributions that are being accepted as there's nothing else, so people need to check before overwriting their local hi res scans. | | | | IVS Registered: January 2, 2002 | | | | Last edited: by Lithurge |

| | Posted: | | | | One person once voted no on my contribution, saying mine were smaller. none else voted no on the covers, or sayd anything. And from the evaluation screen it looked perfectly fine for me. Maby theres some bug, right-click the image and choose reload image, to see if thats the case? |

I haven't noticed any problems with displaying scans in the new version. Anybody have any titles to provide as examples? | | | John

| | Posted: | | | | The ThunderCats: S2V1 change yesterday had the same type of incredibly small-sized image posted. The rate of submission does seem to have slowed somewhat. The first few days was like 10-15 low-rez images a day.
I don't understand how these are getting past the checks...
But, I am going to do more investigating and figure out who it is (I have my suspicion at this point, but need to validate that it is ONLY this person submitting). | | | | It's not the years, honey; it's the mileage... | | | | Last edited: by Patrick Zapatka |

West Wing, Season Two.
Look, Up In The Sky!: The Amazing Story of Superman Crud. Don't have either of them. I was hoping it would one I have so I could compare. | | | John

I duplicated the hi-res images from 2.5 & pasted them into my 3.0 (locally) so my 3.0 looks better again. I think I'm going to take the time to look at new uploaded images before accepting them... (Which I should already be doing... oh, well.) | | | If it wasn't for bad taste, I wouldn't have no taste at all.
