Question about uploads

Monday, February 11, 2008 by CarGuy1 | Discussion: Animated Wallpapers

I thought I'd try out uploading a swf file with my latest dream and was wondering, should I see the video tab as a choice while this is in moderation? This is my second time uploading this dream with the swf, the first time I got a reply that 2 moderators were unable to view the dream. I figured it must have gotten corrupted in the upload so I uploaded it a second time. My concern is that maybe the swf is corrupting the dream somehow while uploading.

Normaly that are 2 different files and 2 different uploads. Maybe your dream is not good compressed. What codec did you used?

You can see it but without the proper codec nobody else can

I've done nothing different and the dream is viewable on 2 other systems of mine so I am sure it corrupted in the upload.
It would be nice if we could download our submision while it is in moderation so we can verify file integrity.

Stormy dream?  Still doesn't work for me and some other mods.

WOM, thanks.
I would still like to see if it would be possible for us to be able to download your own submission while it is in moderation so we can verify file integrity.
I'm sure it would save the moderators some time and trouble if we have the ability to correct corrupted files before you look at them. Perhaps something like this could be put in place in the future.

Technically that's what the moderators are for...

The idea of not having the uploads publicly accessible until checked is to minimize issues of complaint for not working, copyright issue and viral infection ...

I understand, no problem. I'm sure you guys know what can or can't be done far more than I do.
