Hello everybody :)

I'm Nono, 17 years old, worms fan since I have played at worms2.

Few months ago, when I saw all these awesome drawings, I had an idea, make a website dedicated to the worms-artists where they can upload and comment their fanarts in a big gallery. The site have to be very simple to allow everybody to send their pictures.

The goal of the site is to regroup the great work of the worms community artists.
Last day, I had time to make it, and I finished it yesterday.
Now I present you ..:: Art-Worms ::.. (http://artworms.free.fr) and I hope you will like it.
There isn't yet any fan-art (but there are officials T17 wallpapers), but I hope you will quickly send yours :D

You have to be registered on the site to send your pictures, and there is an activation from e-mail to fight against spam.
Once you are logged-in, you can send pictures as far as you want, you can rate and comment other pics.
When you upload a picture, you can note a picture name, a short description and your author name.

I recall everybody can send their artworks, all drawings have their charms, this site is your site :cool:

If you have any problem or want to suggest anything, please contact me ;)
..:: Art-Worms ::.. (http://artworms.free.fr)

Have fun :D
Sorry for my bad english.

I'm really looking forward to the art! Post it soon!

Nono
16 Jul 2007, 17:04
No, the Wallpapers already on the site are Officials Team17 Wallpapers ^^

:D

McMaster
16 Jul 2007, 17:05
OK, I quickly became a member. Can I upload my comics?

Nono
16 Jul 2007, 17:07
Of course, you can upload what you want ;)

Plasma
16 Jul 2007, 18:04
Btw, you are giving each person individual galleries, right?

Anyway, I give you permission to upload any worms art that I make here on that site! However... I rarely make worms art...

Nono

Not exactly individual galleries, but thematics galleries....... Comics, black & white drawings, boxarts...etc.

McMaster

Oh, I can't upload any art, because when I try to upload comics, the browser says that it can't view the page I requested! Please help! I can't upload any art!

Nono

Thanks for trying upload picture :)

Arf arf, I think it's because the size of your picture is too big :s
Because I have this problem when the files I want upload are over 1Mo.
Over 900ko ~1Mo, It's hard to succes an upload in "Free" hosting service :confused:

I should you to save your comic in "jpg" and reduce a little the quality.
The file musn't have special caracters or space (tolerated : "A-Z" "a-z" "0-9")

Sorry.

Edit: What is you internet flow? adsl ?

McMaster
17 Jul 2007, 13:21
Oh, yes, that's the problem. My comics are 1,37MB, but they are PNG. How can I turn them to JPG?

Progress

Edit : OK, I resized them from 800x600 to 640x480. Now they are 900KB. I'll try now.
Edit 2 : It doesn't work. Still this problem.
Edit 3 : I also fixed and some more mistakes but it still not working. This site is a joke.
Edit 4 : Succeded to upload JPEG image, problem is PNG. I'll try now with JPEG.
Edit 5 : Downloaded PhotoFiltre, made my comics JPEG.
Edit 6 : Failed, it says "No special characters are allowed in a filename!\n Must have a-z, A-Z, 0-9 ." and I don't even add them!
Edit 7 : Problem resolved by removing the spaces!

easy. just copy the pic to powerpoint or paint (copying the pic to MS paint will make the pic size smaller but will make it pixelated) and then:

MS PowerPoint:

On a Windows, right-click the pic and select "Save Picture As..." or something like that. Then, from the window that pops-up, click on the dropdown menu and find for JPEG.

MS Paint:

On a Windows, just go to File > Save As... > Select JPEG from the dropdown menu > Save

Me I use PhotoFiltre (http://photofiltre.free.fr/frames_en.htm), a free soft, when you save a jpg file, you can easily downgrad the size.

http://nono.tm.free.fr/bricabrac/jpgDowngrad.jpg

Try to a smaller size McMaster and tell me if it's work, Tanks a lot :)


For Explain "Free" is a french free hosting service who give 1Go. But when you upload by "http", you have a time limit to upload a file (15 or 30 sec I think), so if you haven't a good internet flow, after the time limit, if the file isn't uploaded, it's dead.

You use Vista? which version?

Well, I resized it more, but there isn't any way to upload it. This website is a joke. And the file is working perfectly on me! It isn't dead!

A few seconds later.

It just says that it can't view the page which syas that I uploaded my comic!

Is there a problem with your server? Check it.

yauhui
17 Jul 2007, 14:12

OK..

Well, you SHOULD change back to XP Pro and just get the vista imitating software that makes your XP look like vista. google it. :p

Arf very strange :S
A last test, Can you download IT (http://nono.tm.free.fr/bricabrac/test.jpg) and try to upload.

And can you say me if you have dsl ?

Cisken1
17 Jul 2007, 16:53
OK..

Well, you SHOULD change back to XP Pro and just get the vista imitating software that makes your XP look like vista. google it. :p

And WHY should I waste precious memory and CPU-juice on spiffy effects when XP works (probably better) without them?

Right...

McMaster
17 Jul 2007, 17:17
Oh, yes, I can upload it!

Well, the problem is PNG! Because this is JPEG!

OK, I'll try to upload my comics with JPEG this time.

Oh, I have ADSL 1MBPS.

And PhotoFiltre is limited! How can I upload my comics after 30 days?

And I don't want to pay anything!

Nono

Huhu I'm happy that's work :D

The problem is not really jpeg but always the size and your internet Flow:)
I have just make a test and I can upload a 500ko PNJ file. It's just picture in png have a better quality than jpeg, so size of jpeg is smaller.

For PhotoFiltre, I think you have downloaded the SHAREware version PhotoFilre-Studio.... So download normal version which is a FREEware :)

Thanks for testing :) have Fun.

McMaster
17 Jul 2007, 18:05
Well, I use Free Download Manager for downloads, and said that 2 of 38 users say that it is malicious!

Problems, problems and problems. I'll never upload my comics here.

Nono
17 Jul 2007, 18:15
I dont understand what you want to say.

McMaster
17 Jul 2007, 18:16
Well, how can I explain malicious?

Use a translator. Oh, it means this download may blow up your machine! (lol)

Nono
17 Jul 2007, 19:00
Hmm which Download ?
What is the rapport with Free dowlnoad manager ?

McMaster
17 Jul 2007, 19:15
Rapport? What is this?

Nono
17 Jul 2007, 19:23
Hmm "report" ? What is the report ? ^^

McMaster
17 Jul 2007, 19:25
Well, the report rates it at 5/5 and it just says it is malicious.

The other one just reported without comment.

Did this have any problem in your computer?

Oh, and congratulations, in 2 days the thread became "hot"!

Nono
17 Jul 2007, 19:58
Oh you say the program "photofiltre" is "malicious"? ^^

I use it 1 year ago and no problem :)

McMaster
17 Jul 2007, 20:07
No, I didn't said that this program is malicious, other users marked it as malicious.

I'll try it. And I see from your screenshot that it is difficult. I'll try it, and I'll notify you.

Edit : Installed it without problem, but I don't know how to use it. And a lot of options are disabled!

What should I do?

Nono
17 Jul 2007, 21:51
Just open your picture with PhotoFiltre.
File>Save as
write a name
Select: jpeg
And after select the quality you want, then click on Ok.


I think no options are disabled :)
For example you can't use the option "picture>>Resize" when you haven't select anything ^^

GAHAHAHAHAHA :'D

seriously

you just made my day :D

Edit : Installed it without problem, but I don't know how to use it. And a lot of options are disabled!

What should I do?

Well.. You could try to read the manual. or just take a look at the tip of the day (I'm pretty sure there's one).
or maybe you could even try to do things yourself? :eek: i mean, It can't be that hard to read buttons and think "Hmm, I wonder which one i'll need for saving images to jpeg...". PLEASE? JUST FOR ONCE?

heres a little guide: if a step fails, repeat it 10 times and then move on to the next step
1. try to solve it yourself :eek:
2. repeat step 1
3. read the help file :eek:
5. read the tip of the day things
6. go google it up :eek: (MULTIPLE TIMES, using different words, and search through the pages google gives you, dont stop at the first one, look through all of them)
7. try to solve it yourself again
8. get a brain and repeat steps 1-7
9. ask someone on msn
10. pray for a sign
11. contact the developer and wait for his awnser. if he doesnt awnser after a week, keep sending him emails and call him (there ought to be a contact phone number) until he does gives you the awnser
12. feel sorry about yourself for being a sad misserable noob
13. ask someone on the forum. (just once, no reply means no one cares about you)

Garuanateed succes!

McMaster
18 Jul 2007, 08:59
OK, thanks Nono, I made JPEG of all my comics, now I'll try to upload them on your website.

McMaster
18 Jul 2007, 09:08
Double Post Merge, because of that! When I upload a comic it says "No special characters are allowed in a filename!\n Must have a-z, A-Z, 0-9 ." and I don't even add special characters!

Nono
18 Jul 2007, 10:39
NO escape, no special caracters... just "a-Z" "0-9" ...not complicated? :P

MtlAngelus
18 Jul 2007, 10:52
Try using a very simple, fool-proof filename. Like, "draw.jpeg"

McMaster
19 Jul 2007, 12:50
Now what should I do?

I said that I don't even add special characters!!!

This site has a bug, Nono please fix it.

_Kilburn
19 Jul 2007, 16:36
I hate don't like DeviantArt.

It downloads and uploads pictures too slowly. (sometimes, it doesn't even downloads/uploads them)
I'll probably do my own art webpage.

Oh, btw, don't write "arts", always "art".



(OMFG I DO ARTS !)

McMaster
19 Jul 2007, 20:22
Problem resolved by removing the spaces!

Sorry, I didn't thought that spaces are included in special characters. But now problem resolved!

Thanks Nono!

Wouldn't it be easier to have your picture-upload-script-thing automatically filter out any spaces/special characters from the uploaded filenames?

But what is the problem? Oh yes it's very hard to erase space and special car. in filename :roll:
