Updated skin not showing updated?

April 25, 2003 8:31 AM from

I may have done something wrong but, I updated my Entropy skin and it's back in my skins list, but the date doesn't show it's been updated nor does it show in the updated skins list. The skin and the image preview is right but the date is the same as when I uploaded it.
Any ideas?

I'm not sure but I think updates also have to go through the same process as original submissions. Next time a moderator checks out the stuff in the queue they'll put your update through too (I think).

Did you check the update box when you updated? If not it will not felfect the new date or list you in the updated skins section.

I think that's it WOM. I didn't check it. I thought it was only for when you made a major update like updating an old skin (WB3) to the newer format WB4. I guess I should have checked it. It looks like most everyone does. Oh well, no big deal. I can check it next time I have an update.

btw - thanks to you both

Actually, most people don't check it. You were right to assume that it's for major updates. If you've just tweaked a pixel or two, or updated your description, it's not fair to put it back at the top of the library and push new or significantly updated skins down the list.
