I uploaded some of my very first works, the ObjectDock icons, all in 128x128 PNG. Then I waited. And today I received an email telling me that my uploads were all rejected The reason was, as they said, file must be in ZIP format, when I uploaded pure PNG. But how about this guy?

[Note: link died, as was taken care of ]
His work is in PNG, not zipped.
I'm totally discouraged. Please help!

The thing is...not enough people care for anything to ever get done about it. And several times I've consider not even making docks anymore or just moving everything to my gallery because of this.

Start a petition


EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEKKKKK
He said the "P" word!!!

I think we had a petition to ban petitions and it was passed by a preponderance of persuasive points pursuant to pathological processes.

I thought we had a poll to see if we needed a petition to have a poll regarding petitioning to have a poll to start a petition.

That would be cool Jafo! At this point...since its gone on for so long it would be a huge task to sort it out...But if its possible and your willing and need help, I'd be more than happy to tackle it with you.

I, for one, am amazed at the alliteration skills of some of the posters in this thread!
(reference reply #17)

As for seperating the icons from the docks, I'm not against it at all...and will help in anyway I can, just so newbies are directed to a place to find icons that will work on their docks when the download the programs...I wasn't trying to start a debate, or God forbid, a petition...It's just in all my time here I have created nothing but icons and I kinda took offense at the supposed tone that all png/ico should be rejected. I understand gizmo's line of thinking, and will submit my icons into whatever gallery they eventually wind up fitting into. I'm just saying, if we move them into the icons gallery, we need good signs to direct folks to where they can find icons for their docks, not just for windows or other OSs.

I have read this post over several times, and can not find anywhere that two consecutive words begin with the letter P. I would like you to read it over again see what you think...pretty please

  Bandit...Calm down bud...the petition reference is kind of a long running joke...and the issue of icons/pngs in the ObjectDock library has been a topic of discussion amongst some of us for some time now...in other words...its nothin new...And I personally don't want to see anyones stuff rejected...my gripe has always been the mixing of libraries...it should have been stopped some time ago but at the time I think the staff was short handed and it never got handled. As far as newbies needing directions...I think the library titles pretty much handle that. Its like Bichur said..."When I go to the Object Dock gallery I'm looking for docks." And that pretty much sums it up. But your not doing anything wrong, so like I said...don't take it personally.   

I think once your here a bit longer and get to know the regular posters better you'll get a better understanding of when someones joking around. You have to take some comments witha grain of salt.

alas, I was only joking myself and was playing along...so darned hard to convey tone in a text only format! All of this, including the first "what did I ever do to you?" post was all in jest!...geesh fellas...my entire last post was a play on the alliteration posted above it...gotta just start posting "yep" or "nope" instead of long tirades that get taken wrong....I'm trying to fit in, be funny, not talk too much...darn! I'm doing it again...time to visit the Ritalin salt lick...

Misc Icons: This was supposed to be for icon packs and the odd icon which wouldn't fit into Icon Packager. Only .ico icons are accepted as they are intended for Windows' use only. Volume of single icon submissions have corrupted the library however.

Object Dock: This was supposed to be for all Object Dock related items, docks, png icons etc. Again the huge volume of icon submissions has overwhelmed the library. It was supposed to have sub-sections to separate dock and icons, but that never happened.

The whole lot needs a re-think.

OK cool Bandit...and your right...hard to get a jest across in text sometimes...thats why I use the smiles thingies just to make sure people know I'm only kiddingor I will say so outright just to be sure. Some people take things the wrnog way some times so I "try" to make sure they don't..sometimes it doesn't work though.
