Blake Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 Oly, I think you cut off half of my picture in the scenic category. Here's a resized version of the whole thing: http://www.cascadeclimbers.com/plab/data/513/photo_scenic.JPG Quote
olyclimber Posted April 11, 2007 Author Posted April 11, 2007 Thanks Blake...its probably just a image loading problem (so many images to load!) as I just linked to your photo. Also, another note is that a couple of people have noticed that the post doesn't load with Firefox on MacOSX. I'm not sure why that is, but if you run into that problem just fire up Safari which loads the post fine and use it to vote with. Quote
jon Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 [geek]I was interested to find that Safari was able to handle those images fine considering it in general is substantially slower the Firefox IMO.[/geek] Quote
Alpinfox Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 The images should be a standard size. Big pics have an advantage. Now what the hell is that guy doing laying back Toxic Shock? DESPICABLE! Quote
olyclimber Posted April 11, 2007 Author Posted April 11, 2007 better than hangdogging on it like that dork in the weekend rock guide Quote
G-spotter Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 um... pic 1 and pic 8 in the ski category are the same ? and it stops loading halfway ( just after pic 1 - bouldering) and there is no votey thing? is this just me??? Quote

Good catch brah. Yeah...i just edited out picture 8. If you vote for that one you're throwing away your vote. Otherwise, all the images load for me and voting loads for me. What browser/ OS are you using? Quote
G-spotter Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 Now that you deleted Pic 8 I get half of pic 2 for bouldering. Quote
olyclimber Posted April 11, 2007 Author Posted April 11, 2007 If you didn't do the impossible and remove IE from your system, can you take a look at it in IE and tell me if you're having the same problem? I promise no IE exploits will load. Quote
TrogdortheBurninator Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 works fine in IE, but not in Firefox Quote
olyclimber Posted April 11, 2007 Author Posted April 11, 2007 There you have it folks...sorry for the inconvience but the contest post doesn't seem to load with Firefox on a Mac or a PC for whatever reason. I'm not sure why this is, but in the meantime use a different browser (IE, Safari, etc). If there is anything I can do about it, I'll fix it, but that might not happen before the contest ends... so use another browser to vote. thanks to trog and dru for confirming this stuff. Quote
olyclimber Posted April 11, 2007 Author Posted April 11, 2007 I should point out that while there are a ton of pictures here, they have been selected from a bunch more....so if you don't see yours here they didn't make the judges cut. Sorry if you didn't make the cut, but that is the hard part for us too...so many good photos! Quote
ken4ord Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 Definite for all those who submitted great shots. Hey is it me or are there some pictures that are in this that never appeared in the photo contest call thread? Quote
EWolfe Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 I noticed that too. IPA and Ropegun bribes were offered, I suspect. Great pictures everyone! Quote
Billygoat Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 We can view the voting results on 4/20? Is it just me or is it smokey in here?! Quote
layton Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 There are some awesome shots in this contest. But I think there are some really bad ones too, I don't wan't to point out which ones out of respect, but come on! Quote

But I think there are some really bad ones too, I don't wan't to point out which ones out of respect, but come on! I agree. Blurry shots might be OK in the humor category, but in the Scenic? Come on! And some of those pics have had some kind of photoshop brushstroke processing to them or something. Lame. Thank you for allow couch potato to bitch. Quote
olyclimber Posted April 11, 2007 Author Posted April 11, 2007 shut up and vote you whiney bitches! Quote
ashw_justin Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 This page loads fine in Firefox 2.0.0.3 for linux, except that scrolling is a little messed up (pgup/pgdn not affected). Quote
DirtyHarry Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 In the spirit of full openness, I would like to disclose that all my shots were taken in my living room and backyard and then photoshopped to add mountain-like features. Quote
G-spotter Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 In the spirit of full openness, I would like to disclose that all my shots were taken in my living room and backyard and then photoshopped to add mountain-like features. I just stole mine off the web and photoshopped out the watermarks. Quote
Alpinfox Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 That pic of Rolf bouldering in snowshoes would have won the bouldering category. Quote
