Missing sizes

I'm not sure if this is intended as a feature, but several sizes of desktop are no longer available. In particular, 1024x768 has disappeared. Am I missing something or have these really been removed? Since this is my size, I obviously hope not as I don't wish to find an alternative source of wallpaper!

1024x768 is probably the most popular downloaded size, also it would be nice to have the arrows back and a link directly to the artist's gallery. I am sure caedes is still working on this new layout and we will soon see the return of the above mentioned things.

'buy a new funky hd monitor' would be the answer that springs to mind but i may be shot down in flames on that one :-)

I haven´t 1024x768 yet. But my arrows is back :))) I have 1024x786 on my screen but I can download a picture in 1200x900 and put the settings on *fit to screen* then the pictures is perfect to my screen. No lost information at all.

I'm not actually sure that the sizes are any different to what they used to be? I think the descriptions are just wrong. I have a widescreen and none of my resolutions conform to those descriptions, I also tried uploading a widescreen image and it said it was the wrong size.

I'm still not getting regular sizes. I'm using Firefox and I did clear the cache - both through the Advanced Settings tab of Preferences and under Private Data. Is there something else I'm forgetting?

Suggestions about new monitors are not considered serious attempts to solve this problem. Especially on a laptop.

I still get the problem if I fire up a different browser (Camino) which is presumably not subject to the cache problem as I have not used it for ages.

1024x768 seems to have appeared for me too, now, even though I didn't change anything in my settings but had, in fact, given up temporarily. However this happened, thanks!

Incidentally, I'm still not seeing 800x600. Although I don't use this size, it seems reasonably standard so I'm surprised it is missing.

I was just looking through some pictures and it looked like i was getting different sizes for each picture. Strange stuff. I like the new look however.

When I first empty my cache I forgott to close one window in safari so even though I restart Safari the problem was still there. But the second time I did it I close every window and clean history, empty my cookies and caches and restart Safari and now it works fine :) Now I have this :
View: 675x506 1024x768 1200x900 1600x1200
on all pictures I look at.
The 675x506 is a odd size but I think that they how use 800x600 (like I on my ibook) could download 1024x768 and "fit to screen" and it will be okey.

Don't know what to suggest. It didn't seem to be clearing the cache that helped in my case, anyhow. The immediate effect was zilch. Just some time later, for no apparent reason, 1024x768 just suddenly reappeared.

Now I'm just getting a longer process to view the images in full size - choose the appropriate size, wait for an image saying "Loading" to appear, right click and choose "View image here" and wait again while the actual image loads.

Shrugs. At least I can now get my size somehow. Maybe somebody else can suggest something for you? What browser are you using? Have you tried an alternative?

I think, maybe, our physics major forgot to convert to pixels from his furlongs per fortnight calculations for the next satellite launch ... and the website is hurling through space waiting for a left turn it doesn't have the fuel to make

or something ...


I'd be willing to bet real money that .. due to the fact *geri deleted the previous 640x480 size as being a frivolous waste of time .. he has NOT re-embraced the lilliputian electronics firm "Puny-'Puters-R-Us" .. (even though their stock is a steal at its current price) .... and ... things will work themselves out

you DO realize that today is the day he cruises the Mediterranean on his yacht and receives cucumber foot massages .... so he's not even working on it now

chill !

Weird, though, isn't it? Both the sizes and the apparently individually tailored effect...

Hopefully the cucumbers will soon be transferred to the Caedes Super-Secret Sizer and it will calm down and relax a bit...

Not sure which bit of a Super-Secret Sizer you put the cucumbers on for best effect, though.

Is anyone seeing the sizes change from image to image? For example, I'll see 1631x1200 on one image and 1600x1284 (or was it 1234?) on the next... Both had 1024x768, but I fear this cannot long last...

My screen resolution is set at 1280 x 1024 ... as long as 1600 x 1200 is available I am consistantly getting 1280 x 1024 also. Sometimes, but not all the time, if the 1600 x 1200 is off I may get a 1280 x 1058 for instance. So far I haven't found too many issues yet with the larger sizes except for the smaller ones, which I rarely use to view an image unless I am in a hurry. I am sure this matter is being worked on, but will probably take some time to reformat the sizes again. What do I know & LOL ... Randy you are too much. Now you got me squinting trying to read this thread.

maybe .. it's like one of those Mood Rings that were popular back in the 70's ... the viewer's mood is factored in to the calculations

or ...

the site now employs Ouija board technology and the viewer's sub-conscience desires are now encased in parenthesis preceded by an X and followed by a divide by zero and a few IF \ THEN statements .. and a GOTO

I think this is called a "work in progress". Rome (nor this site) was built in a day! We can and will exist without the "normal" sizes as the site morphs into something even more beauitful.

Just to say that I've got weird sizes on everything again. In particular (so far as I'm concerned), everything is missing 1024x768 except images uploaded only at that size. Anyone have any thoughts?

yes, lots of them .. some of them include

1) .. the site code is in a state of transition ..

2) .. our resident code-monkey is also a resident student, employee, human-being, consumer, sleeper, purchaser of crude oil byproducts ... etc

3) .. our founding father, while telling us he's a Physics Student, is actually a Psych Student ... and this has all been a test ... a test which you are failing

4) .. there is no 4

Could be a test to see if anyone is paying enough attention to notice.

Anyway:
re. 1) ... site code has transitioned to a more acceptable state, at least temporarily including 1024x768 ...
re. 2) ... resident code monkey has gone off to buy a jar of Vaseline and some herbal tea and the combined effects have rendered him or her unconscious on the steps of Asda, so the site has temporarily been left to its own devices and 1024x768 is back ...
re. 3) ... the local committee for overseeing research on human subjects has finally intervened and the founding father is now under supervision for his own protection, the experiment has ended ...
re. 4) ... there is now [see above] ...

what about the 622x1200 sizes, and other such. did I miss something? what computer screen can you use that would use this as a background. I'm not complaining I have some shots that I would like to share that I hav'nt before.

I hold it true that thoughts are things; They're endowed with bodies, breath and wings: And that we send them forth to fill the world with good results, or ill. That which we call our secret thought speeds forth to earth's remotest spot, leaving it's blessings or it's woes like tracks behind it as it goes. We build our future, thought by thought for good or for ill, yet know it not. Yet so the universe was wrought . Thought is another name for fate. Choose then thy destiny and wait, for Love brings Love and Hate brings Hate. - Henry Van Dyke.
