News Submission System seems to be Broken
Friday, October 7, 2005 by BX | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Hi ...
There is something goin wrong with News Submission System. Just made a news about WC Skinning Contest. First it returns me "there is an error in the page" messege but after some time the news was accepted.
Just wanted to enter some personal openions as comment ... but this is what I am seeing: http://blackxero.wincustomize.com/Articles.aspx?AID=88615
The news has been repeated, and repeated, and repeated till the end of the page.
I am confused .. !!!!

When submitting your news item, did you click the "Submit" button once, or press it repeatedly until the page finished loading?

The post looks good (except for the repeats, of course) but one small correction: Shouldn't the stats be in Registered Downloads?

*whine alert*
Does it seem fair to highlight certain skins but not others?

Just as NT pointed out, the method used to determined the winners is by download counts from registered users.
Registered users are those people that have created an account on WC and are loged into the site at the time of the download.
These will be the only downloads that will count for final judgement.
