Announcing the IceInSpace Calendar Competition!
Big news for the extended IceInSpace Community!
IceInSpace is teaming up with Astrovisuals to create the Astrovisuals and IceInSpace Astronomy Calendar for 2013.
And the best news of all; the calendar will be made up of images captured by and chosen by the IceInSpace community!
All of the images in the calendar will be submitted by IceInSpace members - and you get to choose the final images that appear in the calendar!
For more information about how and when to submit your images, when voting will be open and more, please see the article at:
IceInSpace Calendar Competition
I'm really looking forward to this! 2013 will be the best calendar yet!

Could the Sketchers on the forum submit too? Or is it purely photographic?

Damn, that's a good point. Maybe there should be two calendars......one photographic and one "artistic".

There isn't a Star Cluster category, that's a major bunch of objects, was this intentional?

The list of categories has been updated, and 'Nebula and Star Cluster' are grouped together.
Image submissions opens at 9am tomorrow, 1st May. The link to the image submission form is on the info page (along with any guidelines, rules and the full list of categories):
http://www.iceinspace.com.au/73-685-0-0-1-0.html
I finished coding just in time to have the image submission form ready for tomorrow, and although I tested as many scenarios as I could, it's possible some bugs still remain. If you have any problems submitting images, please simply get in touch with me via PM or email.
Once you have submitted your images, they cannot be removed in order to upload any others. I didn't get time to code a 'delete image' function
Good luck and have fun!

Great to see some images flowing in.
Just a note to mention that you don't have to upload all 5 images at once. You have the choice of uploading up to 5 images over the month of May.
You can upload 1 today, 1 tomorrow and 3 next week. Or whenever you choose.
The submission page will show you your currently uploaded images and allow you to continue to upload more until either:
a) You have uploaded 5 images
b) The date is after 5pm on May 31st
Just remember that once you have uploaded images, they cannot be deleted.
Cheers

Cheers

Hi Steve
What happens when you try to upload?
Do you have your security settings set to very strict?
Let me know if you can try Chrome or another PC?

Hi Steve
No it uses standard PHP file uploading, no fancy java or flash applets.
Let me know after you try at home - it could be something on your work PC's but I'm not sure what it could be.
What actually happens after you browse for the file, choose a category/enter a name and click Upload?
If worse comes to worse after you try at home, send me an email and we'll work out another way to enter your images.

I'm not sure why that's happening for you Steve, but I'll enter your images on your behalf. Once I've uploaded them for you, when you go back to the page you'll see them listed for your username.

Hi Steve
I think I've figured it out. I had the same problem uploading your original images. I think they're too big - not in mb but in pixels.
There shouldn't be any restriction but there might be a problem in the code I need to find.
In any case, if you reduce your images from 3500+ pixels to 1200px (or even 2000px) it should allow you to upload them.
Try that and let me know.

Hi Mike.
I was using Firefox and couldn't upload any pictures.
Then i used Exploder and could only upload two pictures.
This morning when i wanted to reply to you, i couldn't even connect to IIS.
Server actively refused my connection  (hateful little server it is  ).
I will try again in a moment
Martin.
