hey hey the issue I was having, after having a look in the inspector, was a conflict with the 'cors policy'. I'm not gonna claim to know what that is in any shape or form, but I managed to get around it with this:

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/moesif-origin-cors-change/digfbfaphojjndkpccljibejjbppifbc/related

here's a description of the problem I found:
'Same Origin Policy is preventing the response from being received due to the originating/receiving domains being different due to the port numbers'
and through whatever means, once you install and turn on this plugin everything was dandy

Hi guys! My thumbnail doesnt loading well, it lugging on the upload. Is there some way to upload it right on a portrait zone? Because it doesnt wat and show ust a black corner of the image( I tried a 3 times(

@r4yl The submitting process is not mandatory. As long as you updated the first post of your topic with your final work your entry will still be considered.

@Lil_G I'm not sure if you fixed it, but your thumbnail seems to be showing fine for me. However, as long as you updated the first post of your topic with your final work your entry will still be considered.

I change category by mistake and I think my submission went to the old 2D Art Challenge, how can I change that?
And how can I make the thumbnail?

@cedricgo Thank you very much.
For some reason I don't see the entry button but maybe it's because I'm in europe and it's setup to disapear after midnight from the IP?

Thank you for your fast reply!
*First post updated.

I think I changed my category . before the update first topic it was Forum /ART WAR/2D but now Forum /Art Challenges/ART WAR 2D there is old art war topics. I cant not fix it help please

I'm having the same problem as most everyone else, it seems. It got hung up at the thumbnail creation (in Firefox). I tried Chrome just to see and didn't have a "submit entry" button at all. When I switched back to Firefox and reloaded my entry page, the button disappeared in Firefox too! Well, I edited the first post of my thread with my entry so hopefully that'll get found. Thanks to the mods for all their hard work on this!

@ens.mlk.yldz I moved the topic for you :).

@geikou don't worry, no entry will be lost Good luck in the competition!

Thank you

I deleted my post on the contest page because the thumbnail was terrible, but now we can't submit anymore.
I'm not worried, as you said you would be scouting the forum to find every submission. But I just wanted to be sure deleting my post on the contest page AFTER the deadline wouldn't screw me

@gabinguede.work nope, you are all good :).

Hey I made an edit in my archive.
The submit button was gone but I just edited the top posts so the judges could see it, so that should be fine. However, I am just seeing that Cubebrush had just compressed my final illustration and made it smaller. The original size while uploading was 4000 x 2792. On upload it was less than the dimension benchmark. Is this a problem? Can I send the files or should I fix it myself somehow. I don't want to be considered a "late submitter" as I finished this morning before the deadline.

@mathiasosland you need to make the file size smaller than 3MB for the picture to not be resized.
Leave the pictures on the bottom as they are and upload correct size Final Image and Concept Sheet into your first post.

edit: haha, double answer

@cedricgo @Acolet I made the changes as advised. I just had to resize it and remove a noise filter (adds a lot of memory). Thanks for the help and fast response.

I have already submitted my stuff, but I just wanted to ask.
if the final submission can "move" or just be a still image?
