Rare Values

[scottish]

is it just me or are even more off the rare values sprites disappeared?

[Plank]

I noticed this the other day, about 40% of them are missing. In IE, a red X appears and you can still hover over it to find out what it is, but in Firefox there is just nothing.

I have a feeling it could be due to this?

[-:Undertaker:-]

We have collected over 100 images (all normal and super) sprites, the new ones, over the past two days, we're just sorting it out with management that the sprites are alright to replace the current ones. We have no choice anyway as Habbo has changed them, so we will have to change ours at some point or another. :)

Once they are all sorted this broken image problem which has plagued Habbox for the past two or so years should be finally fixed.

It's uploadpicz playing up. It's funny an ex-manager was permed for apparently deleting his images which was a cover-up :rolleyes: If management uploaded them quickly managers wouldn't have to use uploadpicz. However, that hasn't happened for the years I have worked in rare values - fact.

That will be changing. Jin is working on it atm.

I was told a new panel will be up in a month, many months ago. Is it being used yet?! That was supposedly going to have an integrated uploader on but you get used to false promises after a while.

Jake you forget you haven't been a manager in a while. RV Managers have been granted FTP access a while ago so that they wouldn't have to wait for management.

The old RVPanel neared completion a few months ago as a Forum User was working on it, then the forum user had to reformat his computer due to issues and lost the panel in the process and didn't want to start all over. Now we have a different, equally talented user working on a new one and I think Jin is helping.

Which I sent to my RVM who is now working on it. I believe there is a slight delay as Habbo has altered the sprite size so we are going to be completely revamping the sizes of the sprites on the page (although I still need to get more information on that).

Wasn't I in March/April?! Only like 3 or so months since I was manager and I know for some of that time Ryan was waiting for images to be uploaded so it can hardly have been a while. Glad to hear it's been changed anyway. Few years too late but better late than never, huh

Three months seems to be a long time, because all that has happened :P My point is that things have changed so its better to find out if there have been changes before criticizing things based on the way they were.

But yes, better late than never :D

Adding on to what Jake said..

This problem of images seems to have been going on for pretty much the whole year.

Wouldn't it have been a better idea to offer people a months donator for every *x* amount of images they collected and sent to you? Would ahve made the job 2 billion times quicker, especially if you did it so there was a thread which had all the rares that needed to be collected, and people could say that they will do *Rare Type Name EG. Neon*, then when a Super MOD or higher comes on they would put a *- And Username* next to that set of furni? Would save managers time and be less stressful?

[Immenseman]

or just get the images from habborator. you can download them in packs.

I was not aware of this!

Surely if it has been that easy, why the hell hadn't that been done 6 months ago?!

[Immenseman]

well firstly danubes images went missing and i re-collected all super and normal images within 2 weeks or so. then loads of images went missing, i couldn't be bothered to collect all seasonal images. i had loads and loads of images uploaded on uploadpicz but from what i gather they've gone too. it's a shame but i'm sure it's being worked on, it could have been avoided but it wasn't. no point looking back and blaming individuals, they've just got to do the donkey work and everything will be fine once again. feel sorry for ryan though, it's hardly fun, ha.

I'm not blaming individuals :)

But if what you say is true, couldn't and altenative be thought up? Something except UploadPicz . . .

Yeah, I didn't mean you blaming individuals, just in general.

Nvrspk4 has said that managers now have FTP access so they can upload the pictures onto the server which eradicates the issue of waiting ages for management to upload onto server for you which made managers use upload sites in the first place. So once it's back up to scratch it should never happen again :)

Yep. Basically I think all the images should be moved from UploadPicz as it is annoying having everyother rare with a X

:D

[Immenseman]

Yeah, that's what is happening at the moment. It'll be a gradual process.

Unfortunately my given time estimation is based upon whoever is working on the panels given estimation plus 10%.

So far 3 different programmers have attempted this and have failed miserably. Fingers crossed on Mentor getting this one right I actually don't know what I would do to reward him if he pulled it out the bag.

If you're still going to add all the things you were thinking of last time then it'll be much better for everyone. The manager, the department and the users using the values.

[Jin]

That is the plan, I mean it has been so long overdue I would say we are on version 1.1 of that panel. The new one we may as well call version 3.0 as it will have so much more that it has essentially skipped a version.

The idea behind it is to make it cleaner and easier to use as well as allowing effective delivery of the values and reducing workload for the RV staff as their job does seem tedious at times especially with new category releases of furniture.
