    Hopefully while they are doing maintenance on jones etc they will fix the uploader too! b:pleased


    Added Later: It looks like it may have worked for me? I am not certain. Try submitting your work. :)

    Also how long does it usually take for something we submitted to appear in the fan art section?

    Hey all, the uploader is back online, so please feel free to submit your entries!


    The contest's new deadline is one week from today - Friday the 10th at 6pm PDT!


    And to answer the question above me, after you submit your entry it has to be manually audited and uploaded to the site, so it can take a couple days. This auditing method is also used as the first round of judging, so please keep that in mind, and if you don't see your submission by next friday, it's possible that it didn't make the first cut. You can go ahead and PM me to make sure.


    Good luck all!

    Ummm. Hopefully that submitted. When I tried to upload from firefox all it said was Upload Failed every time. So I got it to upload from Internet Explorer but I really don't trust your uploading tool anymore. >_>

    Yeah, I noticed that some of these comics had fonts that were incredibly small - some too small to even be able to make out the letters. Not sure why they are being uploaded like this, but if you think you can modify it in some way so that the font appears better, please re-submit.

    Thing is on the original image it's completely readable. I'm currently in the middle of my college exams so earliest that I'll be able to reedit and resubmit is the 9th (GMT +1). I hope I make it lol - to be honest I just had a lot of fun doing it and it was an opportunity to pull a lot of the faction together. The comic competition was a really awesome idea b:victory

    Is there a size limit for comics? Mine hasn't gone through yet and I'm kind of worried, and debating on if I need to break my comic up into smaller pages.

    I uploaded my comic, but I haven't seen it in Fan Art's section.

    Who is doing this audit, and who responsible for uploading those comics to the site manually ?
    I can't believe, that only several pictures were loaded (I counted many more, than appeared in this Fan Art's section).

    Frankie, for the most part only 15 new entries since the fanart submission page was taken down have been audited. They have not been auditing them every day at all. I know, because I have checked four times a day every single day since they went back up. I know for a fact that more people submitted than this. Also most of the entries showing are ones people said that it worked for them and had already successfully submitted theirs before the last contest deadline. Is there any word on whether or not those who submitted their entry before the NEW deadline have all been uploaded if they made the cut. At this point, even if my entry doesn't make the cut, I would like to know it was at least looked at before the deadline. Especially since there are so many formatting errors with the uploader's entries. (it's not the file itself, or it wouldn't display correctly on photo bucket or deviant art either.)

    I think that explains why some are not showing up. As for the other ones who are not showing, they should try to re-upload. I am sure they have been looked at though.

    Thing is though they've done like 2 updates to the fan content since the uploader came back online and some of those were submissions that managed to be squeezed in way before the original deadline. There should be a few more entries, based off of what was available for the forums.

    I am wondering...
    I upload my comic like 2 days after the contest was announced and the upload was succesfully, but is not in the fan art, i know GMs must check it and all that, but same thing happen with easter egg contest (my egg ins't in fan art til today), so my question is: GMs take as entries only what is on fan art or they ckeck all works?, if i not see my comic in fan art i must assume that i didnt enter the contest or i still can win?

    For example, the easter egg contest was in April but her entry wasn't actually looked at until May. They obviously actually liked it and it made it past the audit, but it wasn't shown until May. So that's why I'm wondering where the rest of the pictures are, because there should be others. Even if some they don't make the cut. :P

    That happened on my comic as well, the font is still legible but quite small. And to be honest, I'm not sure how to fix it. I tried to make the entire image well sized so it wouldn't stretch pages which means my frames are relatively compact, to resize the font to a larger scale I would have to make all of the frames larger and if the uploader is shrinking my image, it doesn't seem like that would help.

    Why is it doing this anyway? I'm going to be irritated if I get disqualified because someone can't read it because the uploader is screwed up. Again. I know this isn't your fault, or probably anyone's in particular, but if the uploader is so messed up why are we still using it instead of emailing in entries?

    I uploaded mine already and it isn't showing yet either. This 'prescreening' thing is upsetting to me because my friend and I put ALOT of hours and hard work into ours and just want it to be seen. That's more important that winning at this point, is the sharing. So HERE in case they don't post ours and I plan on posting in the other section also if it will let me

    Aww, thanks you :3

    I won't be too upset if I don't win, though. There are a good number of really good entries that have gone in so far that showcase really good artistic ability; so good luck to them too!

    --Edit--

    Hurray, it's up!!! \o/

    I had to break it into smaller pieces though, which kind of sucks. I feel that it loses some of the effect when you have to read it in seperate pieces, but at least it's in the competition now ^-^

    Will you make sure they approve and audit everyone's work? There are some that have clearly been accepted and made it past the first round and are broken into smaller pieces but only a portion of their entry is being displayed eg Demon of Fog. That tailor comic that was five pages also took a long time for it to be complete. What's going on?
