Forum & Gallery Guidelines - Please Read

I have uploaded my first photo to the gallery and realised I had resized it too small. I would like to delete it and upload it again so it appears bigger when viewed on the gallery. I am unsure how this can be done and would appreciate your help. TIA

Hi there!

It's because we have some spam-filters in place until you have 10 posts. I've changed your forum permissions, so you should have a little more freedom now. Still, it won't all be lifted until you have 10 posts. You can bump that number up quickly by leaving some love in the gallery!

Welcome to Sweet Shoppe!
 
I'm also new in posting pages. Is there a size limitation on the page size when posting to the gallery and in challenges?
 
Hi there! Yes, layouts need to be 700x700 pixels and below 250kb in size. I'd probably go no more than 245 or so just to be on the safe side.
 
I'm currently unable to leave some love in the gallery...I understand from previous posts on this thread that some kind of adjustment may need to be made on the back end? I'm hoping that by posting here, it might be fixed when someone has a moment. Thank you!! Can't wait to comment in the gallery...so much beautiful stuff there!

Hi Jenn! I've let the admins know! Hopefully they'll be along soon to help out! :)
 
Gotcha fixed, Jenn! If you notice any other weird stuff, it should all go away on its own when you have 10 posts. You should be able to leave love in the gallery now though, and that will bump your post count up quickly!
 
Question about gallery

I just posted my first layout in the gallery, and wanted to leave a little love on some pages. Is there something I'm doing wrong? I am signed in but when I click on a page, there is no where to leave a comment. Thanks for your help!
 
I've been having a problem placing credit on my layout when I upload in the gallery. No I don't put special characters like @ on my credit. Even when I try to edit the layout to put the credit, it won't stick...
 
Does it do that whether or not you are trying to upload just one layout at a time or multiple layouts at a time?
 
Hey Cherry, I just edited one of your layouts with brief credits and had no problem doing so. I also noticed that your latest page did have credits. I'm not at all sure what to advise since I cant duplicate the issue. Are you still having the issue? Let me know!

I saw the LO you edited, thank you. I'll go ahead and upload again, I'll try two to upload. I'll let you know if I will have any issues. Thanks Robin.
 
Robin, I tried to edit the layout you edited, I just added below it the link but when I click "submit changes" the credit was all gone. A while ago I edited one layout and put the credit, it did stay. But this one, I'm not sure what's happening...
 
When posting in the gallery, are you allowed to add credit with a picture of the kit (a small one) that links to the gallery? or do you prefer text?
 
Our gallery is pretty finicky with descriptions as is, so I don't think I'd try linking with pictures of the kits. A text link will be just fine. :)
 
Is this still the rule?

Hi! If you made your layouts for one of our challenges it is OK to upload if it does not contain any ssd products (be sure to upload to the correct gallery though! :) ) Otherwise, all other layouts must contain SSD products :) Thanks for asking!

I'm looking for a new place to play, especially with art journaling and collage. Sweet Shoppe has a few of my favorite designers, so you are on the list. I want to be sure I understand the rules, though, and this one is a surprise.

So is this still the case?

No, that's actually an old rule. Currently, our rules for our Bingo challenges state:

You must use Sweet Shoppe products for the bulk of your page. Outside templates, minor accents, etc. are perfectly ok as long as at a glance the page is obviously created with products from our shoppe and designers!

If you want to learn more about our monthly Bingo challenge, you can check out the forum here where we have a new card posted each month!
 
I'm uploading layouts to the gallery, and some of my layouts show the description and some do not. I have the format pretty consistent with the kit, designer and link to the SSD store. Even if I try to edit, and re-paste the description it still doesn't show up. Any thoughts as to why?

Although I have stalked the gallery for a while, I am finally going to jump in and try to participate a little more :)

Sometimes it has to do with using certain symbols in your description. I believe if you use a ' (an apostrophe) that throws it off for some reason. Try removing that, and it should work.
 
For some reason it didn't give me the option to add credits. Even when going back and trying to edit , there is no option. Its weird because I've uploaded several lo, no issue. Its a long list so I figured I would have issues but it didn't give me the chance lol
 
I am not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I am going crazy! My avatar shows as changed when I am in my profile, but in each thread, on any browser I am in, my old avatar show up. My new one should be a dinner plate of yummy food. Can anybody see that in my avatar? Is it a cache issue or something? I'm so confused!!! hahahaha

I'm looking at it from the admin side, and from what I can see, the food picture is set as your profile pic while the picture of you is set as your avatar. (Crazy that they are 2 different things, right?)

If you can't get it changed, feel free to PM me with a link to the one you'd like to have set as your avatar, and I can change it for you on the back end.
