Missing submission

March 31, 2005 7:52 AM from

I submitted some icons last night to both the Object Dock category (as larger .png files) and submitted them as well to the Misc Icons category as .ico files. Last night after I submitted them only the OD ones showed up as Awaiting Moderation, and the Misc Icons ones showed up flagged as that library. However, this morning the .ico version is nowhere to be found. Should they only have been submitted to one or the other? Because I am quite positive I have seen the same set submitted to both libraries in different formats.

Just trying to figure out what happened to my submission. Thanks.

Thanks Koasati. The weirdest thing is these aren't showing up in "My Skins" page at all. Not as accepted, not as in moderation, nothing. So I had no idea they were there.

Other quick question: how do things get rejected from the Object Dock library? I got a rejection email regarding the OD versions, which is a first to me.

What does the email say? I had left a comment on your submission, and a couple of others, asking the other Mods if there was any reason to submit 128x128, and 256x256 versions of the same dock icon. OD does an excellant job of resizing, so I couldn't see a reason to include both sizes. It only serves to make the download larger IMHO. (I'm on dialup, and for that reason I'm very aware of file size)

"Thank you for your recent upload of your "OpenOffice.Org 2 Beta" Skin to the ObjectDock library. Unfortunately your upload has not met our guidelines and has been rejected. However we do look forward to your future submissions."

I have no problem only putting one size of .png in the zip. I have always included both sizes in all my previous OD icons I have uploaded (only because I saw other, more experienced folks doing that). I just figured you were supposed to in case people wanted large icons and smaller ones, though I never really knew why. Could I resubmit with only one size icon in it?

I don't know why they were just outright rejected. Of course you can resubmit. I would use the 256 version.

I wonder if that email is another server glitch....... your submission is still in the cue.

Thanks again Koasati. I will wait and see if they finally disappear from the cue. If they do, and don't ever show up I will resubmit with just 256, otherwise I will just put 256 .png in my zips when I submit to the OD library now. Thanks again.

LOL Now, after getting another rejection email about the OD submission, it shows up in the OD library. Silly site issues. Thanks again.
