Reuploading of PDJ Is Finished!!!
What am I to do?
Saturday, April 11, 2009 by RedneckDude | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
It is done...my part, at least. I am posting here to let you all know that you can go ahead and upload at will without fear of my pushing you off the page. I will reduce my uploads to a very slow trickle now...lol.
Again I wish to thank you all for your patience, and I hope there are no hard feelings among us. 
And again, thank you to Jafo and Spencer for helping me with this trying ordeal. Here's to hoping that the New WC will have tools for avoiding this kind of thing in the future. And I hereby vow: I will NEVER try to change my nick again!!!!
Hello guys. I have just recieved a couple of complaints for flooding the galleries. I thought I would write this post to apologize for the trouble.
As most of you know, I have had site problems for over a year now. There have been a lot of headaches for me, and for WC over this issue. As you also may know, I recently got a couple of real good fellers at WC to help me with this. One major drawback. I have to repopulate my site, one skin at a time.
Needless to say, those of you who upload much realize, with the current state of the website, this is a formidable task. I am having to remake screenshots, reupload every skin one by one, half the time getting errors, and starting over. I too realize that this causes some problems for other skinners getting thier stuff seen. I apologize for this. I have been instructed to do it this way by WC Staff. They told me that either way, it wasn't gonna be pretty.
I do not mean to be selfish or anything. As fellow skinners I ask this of you:
I have been patient for over a year, please be patient with me for just another day or two?
If I don't take care of this now, while I have willing help, I will be in limbo for another year. Yall don't want that do you?
So I ask, please be patient with me for a couple more days and this will be over.

What took you so long? 
Now get busy cranking out some new themes. I already have all these "old" ones.

Some of my earlier work was on one of those "other" sites I had. Most of it needs updating, which I will get to. I want all my work to be resolution independent.

Great to know your reuploading is finished...
You got a new url http://redneckdude.wincustomize.com/
But It arouses some concerns in me as I had changed my nick too.
My url is still the old one http://hemanherecomes.wincustomize.com/ and I am happy even if it remains the same rather than being 'none'
But I am not sure what will happen to me when new site is launched.

Now let's all hope that the new WC site will have better mod tools to easily fix or transfer user data & content and prevent this kind of snafu from occuring again.
sVis got it right....
Yes, it's irksome.....it's irksome because the geography of the site doesn't allow a simple pain-free solution to cock-ups such as the one Jim suffered with his account/s.
Since there really is no other way, the process will disadvantage a few people for a short while. The process at our end was/is no romp in the park, either....it too takes time.
But the effort is worth it....and it makes no difference which galleries were to be affected, the same process would be applied.
I, too hope WC2K9 will be structured more cleverly to avoid similar instances....
