Re: Iron Avatarist Hall of Fame -Warning Image Intensive!
As much as I like taking credit for other people's work those trophies are made by Oblivion. However I did make the trophies for the dragon contest and Homestar runner contest (both sets aren't great).
Oh, I managed to get the proper image for the 2nd place best avatar, so you might want to update the front page one.
Re: Iron Avatarist Hall of Fame -Warning Image Intensive!
No... I addressed that issue Oh, the thanks refers to people who put the contest results together for me, not the trophies, if that's what you mean...
Damn awesome trophies, though.
Re: Iron Avatarist Hall of Fame -Warning Image Intensive!
Curses, that means more editing
Moderators help!
The first post has run out of room, and if that's run out the second one's not far behind. I don't suppose it's possible to insert an extra one in there, is it?
Re: Iron Avatarist Hall of Fame -Warning Image Intensive!
*taps nose*
I have a cunning plan.
But it would mean that you would have to ask the Vorpal Tribble and Ego to remove their posts, cos then it would be one of your posts next. But it would be good to keep the list of threads that VT found.
Re: Iron Avatarist Hall of Fame -Warning Image Intensive!
Shut up, Baldrick.
*ahem*
I thought of that idea, but more that Roland offered to remove all the chatty posts when I was done. But you make a good point...
EeeeegOOOooOOooooo
I think it's mostly just Erfworld trophies needed now, but I could be mistaken.
Re: Iron Avatarist Hall of Fame -Warning Image Intensive!
Sorry Tengu, I don't know. Might be worth going to the original contest to find out who made them and then ask said maker.
More updates done, hope that's everything. Could you do me a favour, Roland? Would you mind giving the contests one of those little symboly things? It doesn't matter which one, just something nice and visible so I can find them easier.
Re: Iron Avatarist Hall of Fame -Warning Image Intensive!
Well, for starters, it's not here
The current contest is Villains, stickied up the top of the page. Look at the first post for rules and closing dates. It can be Oots or Erfworld, but I believe that's all. There was a thread for suggesting contest ideas, but I think it's probably dropped off by now - ask Roland about it. Make sure you read and follow the rules carefully. And in the name of all that's good and pure, don't ask Roland when the results will be up! Lately it's been that the results are posted when the new contest opens - which means that at any one time there's one new contest, one that's closed but not judged, and one that's results have just been posted.
Also, I'm due to put up another lot of prizes or two

Thanks, I probably won't win anything but I'll give it a go.

Thank you Serpentine for trying to save me from them (or them from me, I'm not sure which!)

I can't insert a post, but I could delete all the non-critical posts, if that'd help. Pare it down to just your official hall of fame posts. We talked about doing that before, but never really decided to do it. Nice work on this by the way.

Re: Iron Avatarist Hall of Fame -Warning Image Intensive!
Not sure if this was deliberate or not, but the galleries in the first and third posts don't show up when I click on the 'Spoiler' button. The second one works fine. It's the other two that I have issues with.
Re: Iron Avatarist Hall of Fame -Warning Image Intensive!
Just checked, and it's fine for me. If you look at the very end of the last page (my response is the first on this one), you'll see that someone else had the same problem. I don't think anyone explained its cause, though... Sorry

I think I know what's going on here.
When you open the thread, all the images load, even those under spoilers. Because this is such an image intensive thread it takes a while for everything to load, even with a broadband connection. Sometimes, the page will stop loading before all the images are loaded.
This is pretty standard, but it seems to interact with Spoilers containing images a bit oddly. There is also some load time to the spoilers, and if the page stops loading before its gotten to a spoiler (or just hasn't finished loading yet) the button may not function at all. Moreover, if you try to open the spoiler before it loads, it can screw things up so it won't function when the page does finish loading (you can even break more than one spoiler tag in a post or thread this way, in fact).
This actually can happen to any spoiler tag, but rarely does because the load time for that code is very small. It's really only because that first page has so many images and takes so long to load that it happens often enough to be noted here.
The solution? Reload the first page of the thread, and don't hit any spoilers until its 100% done loading. This will probably take some time, so go get a snack
EDIT: Just tested it again myself, and I managed to bork ALL the spoilers by getting impatient and click happy. When I left alone, I was able to open all of the spoilers just fine (so... much... scrolling...)
