High!
Meanwhile I managed to get into the submitting dialog - but the server
won't accept any ZIP files! What should I do?
See you in Khyberspace!

That's odd!
Once you're logged in it should change the menu along the top, so you get a
'Contribute' and a 'Members' option. It should also take you straight into
the Members Page (although it says 'Contributors Page' in the title at the
moment). This lists 4 options ('Submit a contribution','Update your
profile','Log Off','Unregister').
The login process uses Cookies, so it won't work if you have Cookies
disabled. The Contribution screen also uses JavaScript, so that won't work
if you have JavaScript disabled in your browser. The other thing I noticed
one time was that my first login attempt didn't seem to 'take', but I
repeated the same login and it worked the second time.
I've just checked the site in both Firefox 3.0.7 and IE 7.0 on Windows Vista
and they both seems to be working ok. What are you using?
Regards
Chris B.

True. You'll need to upload the individual files. On the contributions
screen you hit the browse button under the files tab on the left and select
a file, repeating that for each file (I guess there'll be about 10 files).
You should see the list of files you've added build up on the screen.

post ??

Yes, (n/t) means "no text" - the headline was meant to say it all!
As I'm an absolute newbie to the Object Collection, I probably uploaded
the version under a wrong name, so that you can't find it - I simply
entered "Flags" in the "Name" line, if that may help you...
See you in Khyberspace!

The name "Flags" should be right and it should have asked for a new version
number.
However, I don't see it under that or any other name. The last submission I
see was a new one from a couple of days ago.
Did you get something like the screen shot attached, confirming that the
upload had worked?

I tried it once more, and now I got the confirming screen!

High!
But now another problem occurs: as I tried to compose the texture of the
Afghan flag as a layered texture consisting of a simple three-column
pattern (lower layer) and an object pattern generated from a vectorized
bitmap made with Inkscape, I got the message:
Illegal texture or patch in clip, bound or object pattern.
Here is the definition of the "AfghanFlag" macro:
#macro Flags_AfghanFlag()
Flags_ThreeColumnFlag(0, <191, 0, 0>/255, <0, 0.6, 0>)
// Layered texture, coat of arms object-patterned texture yet to be
// added!
texture
{
pigment
{
object
{
object { Afghanistan_Coat_of_Arms }
scale 0.01
color rgbft 1
color rgbft <1, 1, 1, 0, 0>
}
}
}
#end
What went wrong? I also submitted the file Afghanistan_Coat_of_Arms.inc
containing the definition of Afghanistan_Coat_of_Arms to the Object
Collection, so you can look it up...
See you in Khyberspace!

POV-Ray does not allow for a textured object to be used itself in an
object-pattern. It must be "naked", so to speak.
I guess this is intended to avoid people having wrong expectations about what
the object pattern does.
BTW, instead of
> object
> {
> object { Afghanistan_Coat_of_Arms }
> scale 0.01
> color rgbft 1
> color rgbft <1, 1, 1, 0, 0>
> }
you can just as well write
object { Afghanistan_Coat_of_Arms
scale 0.01
color rgbft 1
color rgbft <1, 1, 1, 0, 0>
}
