Changes to Wetpixel Picture of the Week Contest

by Eric Cheng Sunday, August 13th, 2006

Article Summary:

I have made some changes to the Wetpixel Picture of the Week Contest:

Entries in open competitions are now ordered by date and time submitted. This means that if you submit an entry early, your photo is more likely to be shown at the top of the page during voting.
You may now hide individual entries during voting to reduce clutter on the screen. My recommendation for voting is to show all of the pages (click on "All" in the page selector) and then hide all of the entries you don't like. From your new short list, vote for your 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place entries.

Good luck! As a reminder, new contests spawn every Sunday night at midnight, and you can always see the next week's topic in each contest's description.

It works! good job Eric, opps I mean "Guter Job" (Bit of German):)
Posted by kriptap on 2006-08-14 16:11:35 Hey guys. I've updated the code to be compatible with IE. Apparently, IE doesn't like div ids that start with numbers.
Posted by Eric Cheng on 2006-08-14 15:07:05 I tried it in IE Tab (within firefox) and the IE engine cannot make it happen .. it probably works in the new IE beta thingy. It is a very cool feature .. i thought about asking for a 'show all hidden images' link but I guess it is pointless as you can just refresh the page. very cool, fast becoming a lot nicer to use than even dpchallenge.

Posted by Eric Cheng on 2006-08-14 02:07:29 Great idea, but I tried the hide this entry link and nothing happened? it still showed the image.
