Umm WHAT?! What's wrong with this.....

The contest judge has not accepted your entry to the Beauty Contest.
Either there was a problem with the image being viewed or you did not make any changes.
Please review the help page and try again.

WHAT?! I worked for two days on the picture I entered, there is nothing wrong with it.....

----LINK DELETED BECAUSE PEOPLE THINK I'M A HACKER-----

What's wrong with that entry? The text under my entry was something like: This is Sunny's first time in the beauty contest, please vote for her! She was modeled after my real bird named Sunny!

I honestly can't see a reason why it was rejected =( I'm really sad.....

I suggest that someone block that link.... it's a .txt file, not a pic... and we all know IE is rather exploitable...

And if it is valid, the rules have a size limit i believe...

Hope you didn't pay too much for that URL.
Actually, we couldn't find the page you requested. Please check the URL.

http://www.angelfire.com/my/katchi/pteri5.txt

Is it supposed to be a .jpg or .gif ??

=( I'm not trying to hack ANYONE. Angelfire won't allow direct linking to pictures, so if one changes the extension from .jpg to .txt, you can link to it. I can upload it to another server, actually, I guess I will if people don't have enough faith in me to not hack them >=( And it was a .jpg, and within the size limits. It was accepted into the competition yesterday, but today I got that message.

I will be switching the image servers momentarily to a friend's.

Stop complaining, in order for it to be in the contest it must be a certain file type. TXT files are not one of them. :/

No kidding, I uploaded it to their server as a .jpg. As I also did with Angelfire, but with Angelfire, I renamed it to .txt.

I'm just angry because as some of you know I was in a car crash (I'm not asking for pity with that), and I was trying to cheer myself up with my art, and it was rejected, and now people think I'm trying to hack them, and that I'm too stupid not to know to upload it to Neopets as a .jpg =\

EDIT: And if people don't believe it, go to the art forums of this site, which is where I generally post here. People THERE didn't get hacked. The post at the top if it is mine, and people saw the art which i'm talking about (that version doesn't have a background though.....) Also, I've been a member of this site for around 1.5 years, just because I don't post a lot doesn't mean I'm not here a lot =\ My post count went down since the server switch, obviously.

It's not that people think you're trying to hack them, it's just that TNT won't allow anything other than proper picture formats in the contests. I'd suggest another host - photobucket perhaps? It's free and easy to use and does allow direct linking.

Neopets allows you to upload directly from your computer, you don't have to have a website to do it, therefore it was uploaded in the proper .jpg format to Neopets.

Look, stop trying to look for pity....I mean for gods sakes that's what you just did. Complaining isn't going to change Neopet's proper rules. :/ They don't allow txt files, all you have to do is upload it somewhere else my god...the world isn't going to expload because your art didn't get submitted is it. >_<
