    Forum:
    BUG: I submitted it through the feedback form, but am wondering whether other people are having the same problem (couldn't find anything about it on the forums): when I am not logged in to the forum, it has a nice lay-out. However, as soon as I log in, the layout is gone (no stylesheet) and it's all basically just plain-text.

    PROPOSAL: I think it would be nice if you could visit someone's WTM profile page from their username in the forum - clicking on it now only shows you their forum profile with post counts etc., maybe a link in there?

    Site:
    BUG?: When you visit a still that has been deleted (by clicking an old link for example), it shows the error message "Sorry, but you are not allowed to access this page". That implies that it is a matter of authorisation (for example when trying to visit a New Submissions page when you've not enough movies solved yet). I think it would be better if the message was "This still has been deleted."

    PROP: Somewhere around May, someone suggested shortkeys for things like random movie etc. I second that; would also like to have shortkeys for next and previous movie :)

    ----------------------------------


    Actually it is a matter of authorisation, because the stills aren't deleted, you only can't access them any more.
    It's plant to make them accessible via personal galleries, so this problem won't exist any more in the future.

    I agree, would be nice to get to someone's profile when clicking the username here.

    Don't want to start a new thread over this, so I'll ask it here:
    Does anybody know what that little "q: 1" next to the first solved means?


    This is the only shot I've seen so far that has this.

    Not sure if this has been answered anywhere before, if it has, sorry for asking again - Is there a minimum time a movie has to stay in "new submissions" before it can go to FF? Or would it be possible to upload a shot shortly before evaluation time (whenever that is), quickly vote it a ten and it goes to FF?

    There isnt a set evaluation time, each shot has 48 hours in the NS area, from when its uploaded. Unless a kind admin pushes it through :)

    all shots stay in the submissions for at least 24 hours so the ratings average out a bit.
    they are removed after 48h.

    BUG: When I want to unbookmark a movie I click on the button and it turns grey. The problem is, it's still bookmarked and when I go back to the movie page the button is red again.

    PROPOSAL: It would be nice to have my bookmarked movies in a list with names, not shots. In the same way "seen" movies are listed (what is that for actually?).
    Because I usually bookmark movies which I don't know but I liked the shots. So everytime I want to see the name I have to click on the shot and then on "show solution".

    I don't know where to put this so I put it here

    I'm not happy

    first my photo of the pig masks went through with a 6,5
    a 30 minutes later my B&W photo with a 6,9 didn't went through
    I uploaded the same day

    there can not be so much difference in a half hour

    ridiculous

    edit: all the 2 photos were 48 hours in the submissions

    @LordMyst, let me explain the rules again, there is a fix number of shots: 25 to be precise which go through on votes, that's it!
    Then we, the admins, can push through some shots which wouldn't have made it on votes if we like them and think they deserve to be in the FF
    This is the reason why your pig masks shot went through, one of us pushed it through. So in a way, it was "saved"
    But that doesn't mean your B&W picture would be saved as well. This saving thing is simply on top of the rating and we decide which ones
    We can push an additional 25 shots to the 25 that goes on rating

    • CommentTimeAug 6th 2009
     permalink
    yeah I know the rules

    but I thought the moderators will choose the ones to the FF within the 24hs if it is after the 24 hours it will go through the normal system of submissions

    so that was the reason I was not happy

    I'm sorry if I am to emotional :)
    It's a addiction :)

    ok, there is no problem then :)
    We generally push through the ones that are almost gona be deleted at the end of the 48hrs, rating can sometimes change a lot (especially now that the solver votes count for 3) so there is no use to push through things which might get through, that's why they were pushed through at the very end :)

    hmm what were your shots with the high scores that didnt make it? Describe them to me without giving the title away :)

    Going to have to have a chat with chrisy and deviant about this. It was our understanding that stills with scores that high would make it on their own anyway. Perhaps we need to change our criteria for putting things through.... although generally score averages are a lot higher now, so it might just be you wre against even higher scoring images :)
    • CommentAuthorChrisy
    • CommentTimeAug 7th 2009
     permalink
    Yes, this is because most shots are just getting higher scores now because the solver scores count for 3. To be honnest, I dont think we should look at the scores to push the shots through, at least I dont, I just look at other criterias. I'm sorry to say but often I see high rated shots which I really dont like and I wont push these through if I dont think they deserve to go (and I'm not refering to any in particular of course). And Unfortunatly, we also cannot push everything through, so there will always be some desapointment. But as Siren34 says, if it had a high score, try again in a few weeks, you never know.

    Everytime I try to search for "rise" as movie I get an Error 500. I can search it as tag or user, and I can search for everything else, but somehow it just won't work for movies. If i add anything to the ending like "riseq" it works again, but one less like "ris" won't work either. Really strange... ^^

    If you have this in future, go to IMDB and get the ID for the movie. ie for rise it is tt0389328. Search for that in movies and it should find it fine.

    Im sure this is not a bug, but some kind of setting Ive set accidently, but it is very annoying. Whenever I login to the forum, the whole layout is messed up. All frames are mising. It turns into plain text. When I log out again it returns to normal. I looked in my settings for an option of some kind, but cant find it.

    I hope you understand what I mean, and that there is a solution, because its starting to get a little annoying xD
