Title: Uploading New Covers
Post by: segamer on April 02, 2018, 02:07:59 PM
For a few months, admin haven't been able to post new covers to the server. I don't want anyone to think we've been ignoring their covers. I don't know when this will be fixed. I'm just letting you all know.

I was kind of wondering what was up.  Something wrong with the database?

I'm not 100% sure. Only Snowcone knows but I believe it stemmed from an update in January? I know a lot of members have done some fantastic cover work. I figured it's time I address that there is a problem.

*Phew* What a relief! At first, I thought something was wrong with my cover of The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. That was the first new Game Boy Advance cover I worked on in January 2018. When I posted that with 5 other covers in early February 2018, all my new covers got approved except that one. Then, I made 8 more Game Boy covers and they weren't approved even after three weeks after I uploaded them to the main site. Maybe there are some kinks that need to be worked out. We'll just have to wait and see. The best things in life are worth waiting for.

Gotcha, hope it gets fixed and thanks for the transparency.

Just a thought.. why doesn't the admin just make a new website? The site is super outdated, I'd be willing to offer some free help. I used to be a web developer but gave up on it because the field is super flooded and it's hard to find steady work.

So another two month have passed... is there any progress?  :)

Would be nice to know, if Snowcone (site-admin) is even aware of this issue and if / when this might be fixed.

Or is the site dead now?  :(

Might as well ask if Intel is dead from Spectre/Meltdown if you think that uploading covers being down is going to kill this site.
