Problem seeing submitted challenge picture

This must not be my day. I have submitted a challenge entry and for some reason, it shows up very small in the previews pane. I have gone back and double checked the dimentions and for some reason, it still doesn't show up big enough. Any suggestions on what else I should check?

Which challenge, and what dimensions/file size?

Hello General,

Challenge: C2K
Dimensions: 1200 x 816
File Size: 473k

I was going by the new upgraded size limits posted. But for some reason it just shows up as a small thumbnail on my preview screen. All my other challenges didn't have this problem.

Shows up fine for me. As SC I have the ability to view your entry. It seems to me you may be forgetting to hit the "preview your entry" link, and are just seeing the thumbnail...

Adrian, it's far worse than you thought. I can't see it at all!

Could also be a freak caching issue. Try refreshing the page you're seeing the thumbnail where you'd expect to see a larger version.

:( I'm glad you can see it Bear. But for bohemka and aliqui, I'm sad you guys can't see it. I know I can't see it even after refreshing the page and hitting the "preview your entry" link. Looks like I may just have to drop out of the challenge come up with something else later on in another challenge. Thanks for the help everyone.

It looks fine to me too -- you should leave it in ...

There are some scattered display issues happening since the size change and with the new re-sizing algorithmm -- as long as the voters can see it correctly (as they should) it doesn't really matter whether your preview is working now or not ... anyway, you should report this issue in a ticket directly to Langdon, since he's the only one who can do anything about it. Use the Help > Contact Us > DPC Administrative Ticket link.

Affirmative! DEFINITELY leave it in. All is fine, we have confirmed that. Nice shot too :-) Pity I can't vote on it now...
