Hmm... I just realized that the song title is far too long to fit on the entry form. What should I do about that?

Send me a PM with the full title, and just abbreviate it on the form. I'll change it later. The database has a max of 255 characters, but I think I set the limit to 80 or something on the form.

Hey, Vic.

I just uploaded my Otakon entry earlier today. While it was in the process of uploading, my FileZilla client disconnected from the server twice. I was close enough to my computer that each time it disconnected, I was able to reconnect it quickly (within 30 seconds of seeing the DC error). Will that affect my upload to you guys?

I got the video. It's scaled improperly, but don't worry, I'll fix it

Did I scale it backwards? 'Cause I remember doing 720 x 480, but knowing my track record with technology, it could have reversed that to spite me.

You just have some bizarre black cropping on the left and right sides, but they'll mostly get cut off in the projector's safe area anyways.

Huh, must have been the way my program saved it.

Thanks for the info, Vic.

Looks like it'll be down to the wire again for me this year.
