This image is proving troublesome. I tried uploading a new, clearer version, but it seems to always shrink oddly. Any ideas why? – Yaten talk 10:50, 1 August 2005 (PDT)

Ah, it's not just my browser, then. I think there's a bug with overwriting images ATM. I had one that kept reverting to a previous state earlier today, as well. ([[Image:ChartingLHH.png]]) --AtteSmythe 10:54, 1 August 2005 (PDT)
Edit: I already send an email off to Calrissian about it.
Odd. I was able to "fix" it, but not on the first try, and I'm not sure it will "stay" fixed. Initial attempt appeared to work, then reloading the backsword page showed the "used backsword" -- reloading the image page showed the same. I uploaded again, and it seems to be working now, even after multiple reloads. Multi-server session issue may be at work here given the symptoms. — Callistan (talk/contrib) 11:32, 1 August 2005 (PDT)
Edit: Good grief, the used backsword is back, moments later. — Callistan (talk/contrib) 11:34, 1 August 2005 (PDT)
Calrissian has updated known bugs to include this problem. Without having seen the code, of course, my guess is that the section that tells the propogation script to copy the new file to the web servers accidentally sends te old file instead of the new one. So you update, refresh, and everything seems fine. Then the propogation code copies the wrong file around, and it 'undoes' your edit, reverting to the previous/original file. --AtteSmythe 11:36, 1 August 2005 (PDT)

I tried uploading the backsword file again.

I hope I didn't break a copyright. If so, let me know, and I'll avoid trying something like that again. --Piplicus 06:19 am, 19th August 2005 (PDT)

Heheh no, you're fine. I have no idea what the real one is supposed to look like. If it's reverted, we might try to get Yaten to do it as he's had success with deleting and reuploading unlike some of us. --Guppymomma 07:35, 19 August 2005 (PDT)
