Need help testing Critique Arena submission process

[demotlj]

@austinshurtliff It certainly seemed easy assuming it got submitted. Two things — one is that the “what do I need to know before I submit” button didn’t seem to link to anything, and 2. When I first chose the file to submit, I could see my image in the submission box but then after uploading it, the upload box showed a long file name instead of my image. I was then asked to press the submit button but now I could only assume the long file name was still my picture leaving me a little uncertain about whether I had actually submitted the right thing.

Hope that helps.

@austinshurtliff just submitted this morning! It was very easy, I was asked to login, also I wasn’t sure if I was supposed to make it a little bigger, I tried but it still seemed small for the space there, but I imagine it’s just the format and the guys will be able to enlarge as needed when they look the entries over? Thanks Austin!

@austinshurtliff Cool! I'll give it a try. (I likely submit mine on the 28th)

I am still new to this site, and I have not yet contributed to Critique Arena yet, but I wouldn’t mind helping out if you need someone.

Hi Austin, I just uploaded my second entry for the month. It was very user friendly. The one thing I would mention, is that it said nothing about how you want the file saved re: first_last_date.jpg. And I think this could pose an issue for newcomers into the arena.

@demotlj thanks for the feedback!

[AustinShurtliff]

@asyas_illos thanks for trying it out! Your submission looked great.

[AustinShurtliff]

@angelinakizz that's a great point! I can add that to the instructions on this page.

[Asyas_illos]

@austinshurtliff hey Austin, um, silly question I can’t remember if I submitted my second entry… anyway you could check for me? Sorry lol

[AustinShurtliff]

@asyas_illos the one with the pasta? Yes, you did.

[Asyas_illos]

@austinshurtliff ok thanks, oh duh, I was thinking I submitted the first one with the car thru the svs site but I just remembered it was the second, man this prompt has thrown me off my game lol!

@austinshurtliff I can try

[jenn]

@AustinShurtliff I submitted mine just now.

[jenn]

@AustinShurtliff I don't remember, was there supposed to be an email confirmation or was that only if there were problems with the submission? Could you please tell me if my submission went through? Mine is the one with a large triangular kite. Thanks. - Jenn.

I can help test it...but I have already posted mine on the critique arena site. If it doesn't matter, count me in.

@AustinShurtliff I'd like to give it a try. I'm going to use it now.

@austinshurtliff Submitted

@jenn did you end up receiving the confirmation email? It gets sent out manually once the art has been approved and uploaded to the website, so it can take a couple days before you receive it.

@austinshurtliff yes, I received an email from you on Feb. 28 at 4:05 pm. Thank you!!
