Quote from gru :

deleting doesnt work for me, but i may type wrong password (i uploaded few times, and i had it "remembered", now im not sure what it was)
so pls delete skin 45, it was just a test (im not skin author)

when i forget to mark it, im not informed just after submiting, upload proceeds instaid, thats useless bandwidth (uploading twice)

Hmmm why it doesnt work?
I tried it and it worked fine :-/
I´ve send you an email before :P

By the way: I am not able to find out your password. It is encrypted :P

EDIT:
I found out, that the md5 encryption encrypt seperate big and small letters. It means, that it is important if you used shift button, or not.

Quote :

BTW U should check point 10 "Accept terms when you agree" earlier.

I changed it

I thinking about a new logo, wich is very pregnant and serious. Has anybody good ideas? Maybe previews?
Would be really cool.
Maybe your Skin will used on LFS Skin

Quote from Gunn :

Zip files are a disastrous idea, it has been proven in the past. The admins of the site can't see at a glance if the image is suitable for hosting and is the correct resolution etc. Also malicious people tend to include other "surprises" in zips. It's too work intensive for the people who run the site. Furthermore you rely on people to name the file correctly. LFS skin name prefixes are handy for sorting, searching and categorizing. Zip files will not make the files any smaller either, in some cases they will be bigger.

I am thinking the same
readme files would be nice but you can add a long description, too

I´ve add new Options
For exampke you are able to delete Skins :P

Feedback please!

Quote from gru :

how can i edit/delete skin?
there is password when uploading, but where do i put it?

i've uploaded skin, and image is corrupted, want to correct it

Hey,
an edit function is not integrated because it´s a bit difficulat to make it user friendly for me, but i will add that soon.
i will correct that

Quote from NjHarwood :

You forgot to upload an Skin, your Skin file is to big (Bytes), your filename to Short, your image isn´t a valid JPEG/JPG File or you used not allowed characters!


no luck here...i tried everything... i seen sumat tho:

Filename shorter than or equal 20 characters. Only "0-9", "Aa-Zz", "_ -"


could this be stopping c:\user\ and so on? cause they arent a character it allows...so it suggests?

No, only the file itself is important.
Is your Skin bigger than 450 kb?

You get redirected to your upoladed skin, when upload was successfull.

But on the other hand it is a second controlling Process:
For example if you are selecting the wrong skin in Browseoption

Because the Upload Script controls that with regular expressions

Now you can download skins as file!
Thanks to gru for his explanation

Feedback is welcome!

@wheeler: What do you mean with batch?

The integration with LFS is very difficult, because i haven´t informations about the lfs system.
Maybe anybody knows that and i am allowed for that?
The same with LFS WorldChecker. Maybe a developers help??

I need a answer for:
Are the Thumbails too big for a good overview??
I don´t think so but when everyone is saying that, i will change it soon.

Ok, i add a optimize List

Optimize:

Quote :

- Copyright
- Fake/Real/Real, but out of Date
- Adding banners, colors etc.
- View/download Finished
- Better presentation
- Filesize (Filesize <= 450 mb describes the size in bytes, right?)Finished

Looks like loosing activity. When there are no uploads and moving on the page i can´t host it on a pay server, because its still pointless :-/

Please post things you hate or love and we will change or add that!
I´m Sorry

Update: I´ve added a new Upload Section.

Quote :

I´ve forgot to add a comma :P

Read point 2 on the reference page

Quote :

#2 Sexual,Racism Content
Do not demonstrate Racism, Sexual or other bad content in any way on this website. This page is not responsible to liable for unchecked content.

Thats it !

We need more Skins guys and girls!

@blackcarmafia
Ok i will check the error message.
Update: Should be fixed right now

Quote from fraghetti :

I have just uploaded my skin and it looks ugly. :/
Damn autoresize.

Quote from Mithras :

Love it. Simply love it.

SUGGESION: There should be a way to download all the skins at once, at their maximum resolution

The autoresizer is only used for preview images.Your Skin will not touched!
Only a information When you have firefox you can use right mouse and select Show Image. Tada there is the skin on the server on real size

Quote from wheel4hummer :

I'm suprised how many people allow the PHP error messages to be displayed right to the user. That is so insecure! It's more secure just to log the errors to a log file. Otherwise people can see the directory structure of the server.

Its the freehoster not me. I can´t controlthat i think

Quote :

Dreamhost are offering a .com and 1.45 tb of bandwidth for the price of an S1 license for a year if you want to move away from free hosting.

I´ve found host2day.de

I have to look at both

I´ve added a Comment function right now, so comment as much as you can

Quote from deggis :

+1

Alwaysh hated checking manually if some skin is on lfsworld.net or not...

Just tested uploading, very smoothly done website and very "n00b-friendly".

1. Maybe a sticky thread at the skinning section here so it gets more attention?
2. Would be nice if you could view the full size preview pic and full sized skin file.

.

1.How i can add a sticky? Only moderator i think, right?
2. I can make a full sized skin file (But what sense? Tell me please... if there is a good reason, i integrate it of course!!!!). Yes, and the full sized preview is a bit difficult because all uploaded files are resized yet. The website resize uploaded preview images to a defined size to become cheaper in filesize. And if i add fullsize button, it will not resized, ado you understand?

Quote from hinirags :

Hi! what I would love for skins is a research by tag, like on youtube for exemple:

a skin could be defined by: color, author, type (real road car, fantasy, rally, asphalt race), type of racing(BTCC, WRC, F1 etc), sponsors or brand etc...

good luck!

Good Idea. I will add a search by string and tags later on. The sections are posible, but where i could integrate the large selection field? Suggestions please

Last edited by janwolf, Fri 14 Sep 2007, 17:41.

Ah good idea! The best would be synchoronize LFS World with LFS SDatabase but thats a dream ok i will add that!

I am working on a tutorial section and i only want to ask if someone would be so friendly making a tutorial in english with pictures for skinning a Skin and to upload it on the Database. From Start to the Upload themselves.
The guy or girl who creating the best tutorial, will become listed behind his/her tutorial on the Website. Only one tutorial will integrated into the Website. The Link will added between Upload and Reference.

Maybe someone would make this.
Would be very nice, friendly and the one making this become a lot of respect by my side.

Quote from Dajmin :

BUG REPORT

The Upload page has XRR written twice. Obviously one of them should be XRT

Oh, and a quick question - do we need to include the "XRT_" part when entering the name of the skin?

I will fix that!
No the name of the skin mustn´t include any skin informations! I mean your Housenumber ins´t included in your name, isn´t it It is a Name uncontroled by your Skin File
Please add suggestions to your post and i will add it on section: questions
@ GloryJ:
Yes i know!
Ok who wants a better upload size! Reminder: Bigger size, less skins at the end (But maybe i will buy more space)

Update:
All fixed
