Argh. I am apparently rusty at this. Elsinore, could you please enable voting on all three of my entries?
/TRIPLE FAIL!
Actually, Miller, I need you to repost all three–the message to click for bigger needs to be just a simple “click for bigger” message this week.
Otherwise all entries should have voting now.
Also,
What I don’t understand is how can the file they send out from their server be so much larger than the file I uploaded to it? I appreciate that Flickr doesn’t hash my full size files, but even with zero compression the file simply should not be bigger than it’s source.
Crap, this must be why I couldn’t post my third image. This makes no damn sense. I tested all three of my images in scratchpad and had no problems, but when contest time rolled around, Fark kept saying my third image was unfetchable. I tried several times and finally told it to grab the “large” instead of “original” (which were the same). But when I saw your post about the file sizes, I checked, and yes, it’s increased my file size by a shitload. It’s now 180k when the file I uploaded was 119k. I almost never upload anything over 100k and damn sure don’t upload anything over 130k. Given this is 180k now, it will probably break at some point. My first two entries were uploaded long ago, but the third was uploaded this afternoon after Flickr switched over to the new page. Time to complain….
