Hi,
no need to be alarmed. The size warnings are just that:
warnings. I've come up with a better icon for the
real "showstoppers" in contrast to the "warnings" now: a
flashing skull sign :)
Also, now the "percent over recommendation" is now
displayed, to give an idea by how much it's larger than
expected.
On the panorama: The reason it was not approved yet is
pretty simple: We need to sleep from time to time, too :)
Another thing to consider is that there's a new button
"Declare this entry complete and ask for approval" (in the
QTVR upload box).
Landis spent some time approving entries, only to find that
they weren't ready and got changed afterwards, so these
files would have to be re-approved etc.
That's why i added this "aks for approval" option - to avoid
approving entries that are still active by keeping them
separated from those that the author considers done and
ready. So, if you (the people on the list) think your entry
is already ready, but hasn't been approved yet, just click
that button and give us a hint :)
Of course you can still edit it afterwards, if you really,
REALLY want to fix that last one spelling error that was
overlooked before ;)
Looking forward to wether we'll break the record set by
Marketplace...
