hey jb,

-Didn't notice the "skin-contest" posting 'til after posting the raptor-skin today...skin submitted puplicly, yesterday. The wiki states "submit privately" and "release during the previous 3 mos", which was niether! Is it eligible or not, and if not, might I re-submit privately, a modded version???

" One person can submit a skin that was posted on videolan website in the last 3 month "

means you can, if you follow the specifications (I haven't checked)

4 days left need to put my skinning jackets on!

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

There will be extension... A long one...

[martin.deimos]

so is more time needed for 1.0, or had there been just a few skins submitted till now?

I know that setting limits for competitions are always hard. We at Skin Consortium had already hosted 6 comps, and decided for each on a new duration (now we seem to be stuck w/ 4-5 week competitions)

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

Both

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

Extension done.

[martin.deimos]

[plezops]

Well dang! I just found out about the contest! Starting my 48-hour skin attempt now!

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

Hey, you know, the deadline will be extended, as VLC 1.0.0 is delayed.

[plezops]

PHEW! Thats good to know! Any word on when the new deadline is?

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

Not yet. Maybe an extra 4/5 days.

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

Until next wednesday.

Sooo,
what happened to the skin contest? No extension, no word on the voting,
and even worse, no confirmation if the submitted skins were received
successfully, what happened?!
I am a bit worried if my submisson worked (orangeade skin)!?

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

I was a bit too busy with the release.
Voting will take place soon.
And yes, I have got your skin, I think.

But, I haven't received a lot of those, which worries me.

[larzan]

Well, as the voting hasent started yet, just make another extension,
of one or two days, i thought about handing in another skin, maybe
somebody else did too...
