The Sorcerer's Apprentice Season 5 - ENDGAME

I see every image for Princes, but some of the pictures for Warriors aren't showing, just numbers

Space has a great explanation for this that he will post here

Oh dear god, what is going on? That's it, I'm going to do a scientific test. For the first time in my life I will intentionally log out. Wish me luck.

What is going on with these pictures? Is reality finally collapsing?

 

[spacemt354]

Just taking a guess, but for some reason when both teams are copying/pasting images from PMs into the thread, only those in the PMs can see them

For example, when I click on Princes photos (that are just numbers) I get this

This shouldn't happen and hasn't happened until these last few Stanzas -- nobody is doing anything wrong/differently -- seems like a bug

As long as the hosts/reviewers see them then it's fine - but I think both teams would eventually like to see each other's artwork

This brave soldier has recorded her findings, the results may shock you.

@spacemt354 's theory makes sense. I can only see the first couple pictures for Team Warriors but can see all of our project.

EDIT: As you can see, there's some missing images and one big giant blurry logo for Princes when you log out. My only suggestion is to copy and paste on a google doc from here on out.

It is working! I can see everything for Warriors.

I might have a theory. Did anyone outside the Princess PM have trouble see the #HippoSplatterWall or Happy Hippo merch pictures in the last stanza?

I saw it the first time

I had no problems seeing any of the photos last round. But there was one post Princes made before that round that was a field of broken images. I believe the restaurant round.

i saw it fine

Alright, so this didn't used to be an issue because you didn't used to be able to do it. But I noticed it while working on One Little Spark.

You can now upload photos directly from your computer to direct messages just like you can for regular forum posts. That means the photo is "hosted" on wdwmagic. Specifically in the direct messages. Which sets the photos to private and can only be seen by people in the messages. Photos "hosted" on other sites are visible though even if they are copy and pasted from the direct messages because it doesn't matter to Wdwmagic where you are getting the photo from, it matters where it is hosted.

It didn't really come up in One Little Spark because of the heavy use of Google Docs/Slides due to issues with the site in general for a lot of newer members. Solo projects in that game and since then would be made in public spaces and thus hosted in public places.

It hasn't been as much of an issue until recently in this game, I'd assume, because there hasn't been as much original art or as much forum post presentations until the Bar Brawl.

It doesn't effect photos I post because I upload everything to Imgur first and then bring it to the site. So, it's hosted somewhere else in a public place before it's brought to the direct messages.

Bottom line, if I'm right, upload everything to Imgur or something similar first and we shouldn't have issues. Should just take a minute or two more.

Did the facade and stage pictures show up? Because I did those two and thus they'd be on imgur. The rest were by other people.

Yeah I agree. Either that, or start typing our drafts on Google docs. It would make editing easier anyways.

Not for me (assuming you are talking about Golden Mickeys).

 

[TwilightZone]

This whole thing makes me wonder how wonky the rest of the work here is when you log out.

 

[TwilightZone]

Hm, I think I will do a test anyways to see if Pi's hypothesis is correct. Stay tuned.
