I don't know if it's a bug or not, but on the beta version of the site, the images for the map spotlights were set to load randomly from their assortment. Now they load the same images every time. I liked that feature, can you bring it back?
Implemented.

Fixed a problem with the 'users online' system that was causing incorrect user ids to come up on the online users list.

OPERA Version 9.64
Here are the errors I see.. the page is all white with a text, and like the graphic of the cat servers and snark.
Warning: include(styles/sp_black/config.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/snark3/public_html/index.php on line 585
Warning: include() [function.include]: Failed opening 'styles/sp_black/config.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/local/php5/lib/php') in /home/snark3/public_html/index.php on line 585
Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/snark3/public_html/modules/latest_maps_fp.php on line 23
I'll try to work up a screenshot for you.

Ok, so internet explorer 8 is really NOT working well with the snarkpit, so i just downloaded firefox and it seems fine now.
anyways, i found this very weird bug about the snarkmarks. I made a map, and Riven rated it 3 stars. Then i had 70 snarkmarks. Then i went to the forums a bit and suddenly i had 41 snarkmarks. Right now, when 2 more people rated my map, i have something like 19.

I know whats happening now, its deducting your snarkmarks because your getting "low" map scores.
Two things about that larchy:
1) I don't think snark marks should be deducted for having a "low rating", perhaps we could give them like 20 or something for submitting a map, then additional marks depending on what their map gets, and it should be based off the average maps rating not quantity of ratings, if a map has a score of 3/5 and another person rates it 3/5, the marks should then not change. 2) 3/5 is very much so a positive score, so marks shouldn't be taken away.

This is not actually the case. Snarkmarks are never deducted - this was discussed during the beta and it was decided the possibility of people having negative snarkmarks was a bit silly
I had made a mistake that meant a certain value was not updating correctly when something was rated, and this value affected the multiplier when your snarkmarks were being calculated.
Niborius - the issue is now fixed, but your snarkmarks will still show 19 until you visit control panel > snarkmarks, as visiting this page recalculates your profile's snarkmark total.
I've also found the issue with the 'validation failed' error when you upload a map using IE8 - I'll work on getting it fixed this afternoon... it's a problem with the new upload progress scripts not running properly on IE (IE7 doesn't work at all)... probably a DOM issue somewhere.

I've restored the original non-ajax map upload form for the time being, since the new version doesn't seem to be working in anything other than firefox.

Thank you for fixing it, but even when i go to the control panel and click "snarkmarks", i still have only 19. And that's a shame because i had way more than that

Yeah... we chopped and changed the ratings system a few times, and looks like there are still some gremlins. Have made some more fixes! Hopefully, fingers crossed, everything is ok now and you should have 51 snarkmarks which is what your profile is showing as I post.

I think "Aaron Da Killers timezone" should be renamed to "Australian Eastern Standard time"
Also, some things about submitting articles.
1- There should be a preview article button. 2- If you enter a example file or thumbnail, you can't get rid of it, you can only change it. I accidentally put the thumbnail in the example box field and can't get rid of it.

Na, I had a similar issue when I first loaded the new site in Firefox. It took me 3 tries over the course of 5 minutes, but finally it loaded fine. -And I haven't had the problem since.

Hitting the 'theme' button fixed it yesterday, but it came back today. The theme button fixed it again. I'm guessing that maybe there's no default theme set, as part of the warning message is something about a config.php file not existing.
