Firefox still didn't work but Exploder works as long as the image is 2000 pixels

iceman (Mike) · #22 04-05-2012, 05:07 PM

Under 2000px? or exactly 2000px?

Have you tried Chrome?

Anyway I'm glad you were able to upload your images.

iceman (Mike) · #23 04-05-2012, 05:07 PM

Oh and for everyone, it's worth mentioning that for this competition, images don't have to be NEW.

That is, in some competitions, they stipulate that the image must be taken within the last 12 months, or two years, or not be entered into anything else etc.

We don't have any of those rules with this one. Any image is welcome, as long as it's yours!

mill (Martin) · #24 04-05-2012, 05:21 PM

Mike the last image was exactly 2000px and uploaded with explorer.

Martin.

Has this problem been fixed? I have been trying to upload images for a few days but have been unsuccessful. Have sent an note to the support email address but no response.

Rgds,
Rodney

iceman (Mike) · #26 08-05-2012, 05:54 AM

Hi Rodney
I hadn't received any email from you so I looked in the spam folder and there it was.
Will get back to you shortly.

Ryderscope (Rodney) · #27 08-05-2012, 07:56 AM

Following advice from Mike I have downsized the images to 1200px wide and they now upload ok.

steve000 (Steve) · #28 08-05-2012, 12:23 PM

Keeping them under 2000px worked

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

YEAH I SENT MINE IN THEN READ THE DETAILS lol oh well i am sure someone will supply a venus tranist

iceman (Mike) · #30 08-05-2012, 01:28 PM

There's no Venus Transit next year so don't need a Venus Transit image

Are images that are instantly recognisable as being from overseas welcome, or is there a preference for Australian scenes in the Landscape Astrophotography and Star Trails categories?

It doesn't have to be Australian scenes. Any images are welcome.

Mike,

I signed up today and I would like to submit and image, however I get the following error when I click the link to submit. Did I do something wrong?

Hi Ian

Make sure you are logged in at the time, with 'remember me' ticked when you log in.

Then go to the submit page and let me know if you still get the error.

Cheers

vk2him (Ian Mills) · #35 13-05-2012, 10:29 AM

Hi Mike,

Yes I am logged in with remember me ticked - I can see I'm logged in via the left hand panel however I still get this error.

I was also wondering if there was a page that showed the photos from others that had been loaded - I'm not sure if mine are good enough lol

iceman (Mike) · #36 13-05-2012, 10:31 AM

Other photos aren't shown until voting stage. All images are welcome, please don't think they won't be good enough

What browser are you using?

Can you try a different browser?

vk2him (Ian Mills) · #37 13-05-2012, 10:38 AM

I tried Chrome, Safari and Firefox on my Mac and Safari on my iPad - all gave the same error

This is the url http://www.iceinspace.com.au/73-686-0-0-1-0.html

Cheers

iceman (Mike) · #38 13-05-2012, 12:02 PM

Ok i'll have to try resetting your password to something I can use to login as you, and try it on my computer so I can determine if it's something specific to your computer/login, or a bug in the code.

It'll mean you won't be able to login for a short while. Will get back to you.

iceman (Mike) · #39 13-05-2012, 12:06 PM

Ok I got the same error when logged in as you. Leave it with me - I'll try and find the bug and get back to you.
Will email you with the password I set.

iceman (Mike) · #40 13-05-2012, 12:20 PM

Ok the bug is fixed. I was re-using some code from a few years ago when we had xmas quiz competitions and I had a check that made sure you were in the 'buysell' user group which indicated that you had over 5 posts and been a member for 1 month.

Now, I simply check that you're part of the 'registered members' usergroup.

You should be able to submit images now.

Thanks for your patience!
