Post a copy of your skin and the screenshots you are trying to upload, so we can download and check them for you.

[Wildrose-Wally]

That might have been a problem with the database, not your skin.
Re-submit your skin, make it a brand new submission, not an update of your old submission.

[nomi]

I am fed up of uploading again and again
Now I am attaching the required files here

Pls have a look

[nomi]

whole skin preview

[nomi]

this is the skin file

[Wildrose-Wally]

OK, that looks ok, but it will not get your skin published. If you want your skin published, follow my suggestions in the previous post.

[Wildrose-Wally]

You must be doing something wrong, winzip don't want to open that file and neither does winamp.

[Mr Jones]

Yeah, what the heck was that zipped up with?

[k_rock923]

I tried it in linux file roller to no avail.

[squakMix]

I opened it with winrar, and got an error "unexpected end of file"(or something to that extent). However, I DID find ONE file in there, and that was in a folder (the name of the skin). I found pledit.bmp, but that was it.


edit: hmm, after trying to unarchive the pledit.bmp, I got this error from winrar:
"! C:\Documents and Settings\Athlon\My Documents\Downloads\jet_audio_5.rar: Either multipart or corrupt ZIP archive"

[flatmatt]

! C:\Documents and Settings\flatmatt\Desktop\jet_audio_5.wsz: Unexpected end of archive

! C:\Documents and Settings\flatmatt\Desktop\jet_audio_5.wsz: Either multipart or corrupt ZIP archive

In WinRAR, I get a folder in the ZIP with pledit.bmp as the only file in it. The pledit.bmp cannot be extracted.

[edit] Um, consider this independent verification. [/edit]

[Mr Jones]

I think we can all agree now that it's fucked up right?

[squakMix]

yep.

[nomi]

Ok ok

I am attaching a Fresh zip file renamed to *.wsz

Pls check It

Thanx

[Mr Jones]

Yeah, that one works, submit it and await it's publishing.

[nomi]

You can see that my new skin
is working properly

but still it is not published on the winamp site

why????

[StillWater]

Have you received an error email again? If not, then it probably means everything is ok, but you'll have to wait. Skins need first to go through a review before they get published. This normally takes a few days.

In your "My Profile", does the skin appear as "Unpublished"? If so, then it should be working.

[nomi]

My profile shows that skin in Unplished area
that means it is being reviewed

I m not worried now
thanx

[Mr Jones]

Component ID?, I see no such skin awaiting review, I did however see it yesterday...

If you don't know how to find the CID number, read to the bottom of this thread.

[nomi]

the component ID for my jet Audio 5 skin is

CID: 142679

[nomi]

What the hell it is
why my skin is not yet posted

[Mr Jones]

You appear to have broken the submission system by submitting multiple varieties of the same skin, so far we found 3 broken versions in the database and one working one, we published that one, but it broke again, probably a database conflict.

You also gave us an incorrect CID number, the only valid one I can find in the system is 142520, which I have just tried to re-publish.

If it dosn't show up on the site within the next 3 hours, 6pm GMT here, then delete any and all submissions you have in your account, dosn't matter if they are published/unpublished, and submit ONE new copy only.

Oh, and calm down and try and be a little more polite, or this'll be the last help you get.

[Mr Jones]

THanks.

[nomi]

Very bad form. We don't like this kind of pushiness when it comes to publishing skins.

If you want, we can put you back in the queue and make you wait for half a year, which used to be the standard waiting time back in 2001.

[nomi]

Sorry

Mr ,wildrose-wally

I was a bit more impacient

I apologies for those comments

Sorry again

[Mr Jones]

Wow, you reviewed your own skin WITHOUT giving it 5 stars like most people would do for their own work, congratulations you earn some respect points for that

[nomi]

I rarely satisfy with my work
So I give only 2 stars
1* for the hardwork as its my first skin
2* being a bit biased


Anyways, thank you very very much for the respect points

[StillWater]

I think it's definitely better than 2 stars though . Although I have to admire the level of self-criticism - that's a sign of someone who will probably go far
