P’Clip, neither of those is really a link to the Gallery ~ you probably get the same error message as Aggie did previously right? Like this:

                          vBulletin Message                                                                                               [b]Paperclip, [/b]you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

[ol]
[li]Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else’s post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?[/li]> [li]If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.[/li]> [/ol]

Even if you uncheck the submit to CGTalk Gallery option, a thread is still created, but it is AUTOMATICALLY REJECTED, and those are the two threads you are seeing in your User CP. If you click on those, they go nowhere (they’re “rejected” threads), so don’t worry about it. :slight_smile:

kraal,

You’re welcome to keep those images in the CGTalk Gallery, or, if you prefer them to be deleted (say, if they are older examples of work) then that’s fine too, just let me know. :slight_smile:

Cheers,

~Rebecca

All those non cgsociety members will be wondering what the hell is going on with all these disappearing gallery images.

#56

Please refer to the Haiku. :smiley:

#57

#58

Not to mention all these people whose names are changing at random :slight_smile:

#59

[b]Problem Fixed…

[/b][color=White][size=2]Thanks to Anton, the option to submit your CGPortfolio image to the CGTalk Gallery is now [size=3][color=LemonChiffon]UNCHECKED by DEFAULT, meaning that you will not be submitting work to the CGTalk Gallery unless you want to. [/color][/size][/color][/size]

Yay, I will now be able to sleep at night! :smiley:

#63

I can stop Haiku’ing! :smiley:

#64

I just noticed another addition. What’s the ‘Add this image to the ‘Featured Artwork’ list’ option do? It’s under my images in the gallery.

#65

Thanks for changing the thread title Anton. :slight_smile:

#66

It’ll be gone soon :wink:

It’s a moderation feature - currently moderation involves me digging into the database and tapping in code :slight_smile:

#67

So for that short period of time I have the power to add images to the featured artwork list? Cool! :stuck_out_tongue:

#68

No, you merely have the ability to click madly on a button that does nothing :wink:

#69

Oh well… good enough for me. :wip:

#70

That must have been what happened (I’m talkign about the invalid link) and yes, it’s the same thing that happened to lemoggy.

Yay for premature cries for help!

FYI:

Artwork submitted to CGPortfolio is automatically added to the CGTalk gallery for validation, any art you have already submitted to CGTalk gallery will automatically be added to your CGPortfolio.

Its on the ‘Manage Portfolio’ page.
