Testing the new release post code.  What I have done is create a utility to allow me to quickly make this post for releases of skins.  Before now, it was always done by hand.

If there is no image it is due to the skinner not submitting one with the skin.

Here's a couple of things I noticed last night when submitting my skins.

I attempted to submit a screen shot but was told it was incorrectly sized. It was 1290x1080 Jpg @ 695Kb. Not sure what the problem is, but it was bounced.

It was then I discovered another issue that occurs after a skin is rejected and you go back to the submission screen:

The skin name entered is erased after any space in the name. "4./Jg 77" is shown as "4./Jg"

I had this happen on one of the 109F's I submitted a few months ago. I had no idea what caused the naming issue then, but I caught it last night.

Hmmm.  I'll have to look at the code, but I think I can see where your screenshots would have been rejected.

The minimum size, for the fullsizeimg.jpg file is 1280x720 and the maximum is 1920x1080.  1280x1080 might actually fail if I goofed the logic.  Entirely possible.

If the utility is dropping the name at a space, I did not know about it and will put that on the list to get fixed.

By the way, there is no negative intent in saying there is no screenshot available.  I was obligated to say it or people would have been all over me about it.  People have been asking for a long time for me to put up images of newly released skins so I finally got around to figuring out how I could do it.

Thanks for all the efforts on the new and updated skins.  They are really looking sharp.

It only happens after a skin is rejected. I just happened to notice it last night and thought "hey, this is what happened to that other skin."

Never took it that way. Just letting you know there was an issue with the submission.
