I know this thread might should have been posted under website, but who's gonna see it there? It is also pretty game-related though.
Anyway what is up with POTD? Today the picture is of three men crouching and looking up (and they're NC!), with the text "LIMBO!!!". How lame is that?
And we've seen all the pictures of vehicles inside buildings, not funny any more (if it ever was). Come on people, don't submit because you want to see your name on PSU, submit because you got a good picture.
One thing is people submitting pictures with as much value as a [insert boyband] cd, but why are these pictures not picked out and annihilated by Hamma or who ever checks the pictures (I assume that someone does this to filter out offensive pictures).
Please uppen the standards or maybe change it to POTW if there isn't enough pictures.

I think a 3 year old could do better, the POTD has been sucking pretty horribly the last few days
I was about to post saying the exact same thing, but there was already this topic up. Just ban Xmodum from posting POTD hamma, its pretty pathetic :(

That's kinda the point, let me make it clear so even you (and Vipergts1587) can understand it. Do not submit pictures just to post something, submit pictures that a worth the look!
So I'm not gonna try to get a better screenshot, but if I do see something I'll take the picure and submit it.
Anyway it's hardly whining. Have you seen the latest couple of POTD's? I would rather watch the Opera show than see any of those pictures again.

POTD are selected randomly noobs. Hamma has nothing to do with it. So he cant filiter out the lame ones. I found the NC Limbo one slightly entertaining just cause of how perfectly in sync they were.

What about the last one? The planet in the sky with flail shots around it. That, as well as the limbo one were really lame, woopty-fucking-do, "I took a picture of the sky."

Fact is people like to see their screenshots displayed on the front page of a website. There are always a ton of vehicle humping screens etc submitted. Most get denied unless I get a chuckle.
Dont like the quality of pics displayed? Submit better ones :) oh and read the caption at the bottom. 90% of the time its the package deal i accept, not just the image.

False they are all reviewed by me, because someone could submit porn.

Meh, you just have to think about it man. Then it makes sense. Granted, it's not the best PotD ever, but I like it.

when i try to submit a picture it says it will only accept it in JPEG format (jpg or jpeg)
I saved the BMP as a jpg file in photoshop using the save for web option. I also tried saving it in all capital letters and both file extentions (i.e. JPG, JPEG, jpg, jpeg)

Yes, Good Ol' Hamma never fixed that problem. ;)
That prob has been there, don't feel bad, it didn't work on my old comp either. No wonder most POTD's suck...the only people who can submit are the ones who submit crappy ones :brow:.

Hamma I would submit more but I'm still working on a Game Card.
I dunno about you guys, but I thought the Flail shot one was entertaining.
It made it look like the moon was falling, and the flail shots were motion lines [/comicswhore]

Look, I sent in the LIMBO!!!! one , but I sent that in last October, and when I did, I couldnt think of anything, dont whine, send in one better than ours to give us an example or something, or stfu. I know my potd was stupid , but whos cares? its called humor people. Also, dont spam the forums with pics, thats what the freaking PoTd is for in the first place.(Excuse me if this has been said before , I only read the first two posts.)

So because you sent it in October it's suposed to be fun? It still sucks. Because you couldn't think of anything... Then don't submit anything! You even admit that it's "stupid", then why send it? And do you mean the humor is that you send in a picture even though you knew it sucked? Or do you mean the picture is stupid but still entertaining?
And by the way, I love when people use phrases like STFU, makes them sound so intelligent... :rolleyes:

You should see the amount of POTD's I deny, much higher than acceptance :p

How about a Movie of the Day now that so many people can generate them?
edit: too bandwidth intensive?

Yes, too big and too bw intensive

You seem to care about a post about POTD. Besides what a lame remark, why not complain about to remind people to take better screenshots? Wouldn't it smarter to make POTD worth the look instead of just not ignoring it?
