Uploaded Screenshots Ordering

See ArmoryLab page.

 

Since about two months ago, I haven't been able to determine what order the screenshots will appear when uploading. The frist time, they displayed #3, #2, #1, #4, #5. Next time it was #2, #1, #3, #4, #5. And the third thumbnail got used for the last three screenshots.

 

Uploading more than three screenshots seems to be unpredictable, and adding more than five just seems to scramble them even more. The instructions say to upload the most important one first, but it doesn't stay in the first position.

 

Is it just my page, or is the entire site affected? Will it be fixed?

Think it's probably a result of using different file types. I'm going to be limitting the system to .gif and .jpg/.jpeg files only TODAY!

 

Note: This won't affect currently uploaded files.

I meant to only upload .jpg files. I noticed two .bmp files slipped in.

 

I tried again, made sure they're all .jpg, and the order displayed is #5, #4, #3, #1, #2. Seems random for the past 20 attempts. Anyway to lock the display order in the sequence uploaded?

Not at the moment, no.

Tom, I don't know about the ordering after the upload but I have noticed (recently / 12/26/2006) that when you upload more than one image at a time, it can jumble the order around and even loose the primary picture that you intended to be displayed as the main thumbnail.

 

I only upload JPG files (that was re-saved with MS Paint for best compression and maximum compatibility) and I have found that if you upload your screenshots one at a time, it seems to keep the order.

 

Give that a shot and let me know if that works for you too....I only uploaded one mod recently (Armory of the Silver Dragon...ya, it was painful uploading 40 pics one at a time)
