That might be the issue. If the images aren't limited to 550 px. maximum on the longest side, then the site has to resize them. That might be where the process is hanging up. If you are able to upload images normally to your site, and other collectors are doing so (I see Kittyfire has more recently uploaded), then it's likely an issue with the images you're trying to upload. Are they all .jpg, for instance? RS supposedly takes .gif, but I think I recall people having trouble even with this.nowherekid85 wrote:Ithen I started working on the next person's entries, which were a much larger file size, and that's when it stopped working right
Is anyone else having issues with Rubberslug?

Re: Is anyone else having issues with Rubberslug?
It seems to be working now for the most part lol. I think I forgot to mention earlier that I was resizing their photos too. They were all .jpg as well. I was also having trouble uploading pictures that I had uploaded in the past to test them and they weren't working. But I think the issue was the files themselves.sensei wrote:That might be the issue. If the images aren't limited to 550 px. maximum on the longest side, then the site has to resize them.

Re: Is anyone else having issues with Rubberslug?
Jason has been notified via the RS/Beta Facebook group. I see that a similar periodic problem occurred a few weeks ago.
Re: Is anyone else having issues with Rubberslug?
It’s currently working again now without any issues so far.

Re: Is anyone else having issues with Rubberslug?
Went down again on Monday midday, rather suddenly as I was doing some routine maintenance (nothing more than browsing and copying info for my steadily growing complete inventory of my collection, now in the douga counting stage). Still down this morning. Jason has been notified.

Re: Is anyone else having issues with Rubberslug?
At noon on Tuesday, Feb. 18 Rubberslug was back working normally.
Edit: it was responding very slowly later that afternoon, but finally connected and afterwards behaved itself.

Re: Is anyone else having issues with Rubberslug?
I have not been uploading of late, but as of this morning Rubberslug and RS: My Account were both displaying normally. Is it an issue of the size of the image? RS does upload images wider than 550 px wide, but it then has to process them to display with the 550 px default. There have been times when I've accidentally tried to upload the original maximum size scan rather than the chibi version, and I've gotten an error message as a result.

Re: Is anyone else having issues with Rubberslug?
Update: people on the RS/AB Facebook page report a similar issue. I also tried to change the banner on my home page and got an error message. Jason has been notified. More as I know it.

Re: Is anyone else having issues with Rubberslug?
I can't login to my account on RS. I want to update my gallery.
Does anyone know how to contact RS? I keep trying to contact them but it won't go through my message.
I feel like at this point I will just have to make a new account

Re: Is anyone else having issues with Rubberslug?
I message him on Facebook, which he uses often. If you visit the FB group "RubberSlug & AnimeBeta" you will see his posts ("Jason Nolasco") and then you can click on his name and send a message. (Might have to friend him first; he doesn't bite or send spam.) Good luck!
