You can enter all templates created by you and posted elsewhere as long as you are the rightful owner of the template. So bring them on!

My stuff starts to look fuzzy because Auctiva converts them to a jpeg instead of leaving it a gif and I also loose the transparancy too.

I guess to do some of these templates the right way I'm going to need to host the graphics elsewhere.

Or after you aquire them to use as part of your service I can give you the gif to use. I did notice the ones you have are made with gif's.

Either way, just know anything posted here that shows a jpeg I also have a copy in gif format as well

Interesting.
Did you upload those images today? If so, would you mind telling me which way you loaded them (HTML, Java, Drag & Drop)?

You could try uploading them again. The image loaders are set up to keep your gifs, well...gifs.

If reloading the images doesn't fix it, then hosting the images elsewhere for the competition would be a good work around.

You can host the images anywhere for your contest entries. It is not required that you host them on Auctiva.

It exciting to see all of the entries!

You are all so creative and template saavy! I can't wait to see all of the new entries on Monday.

Oh wow, that must be new!

When did the gif ability become available. I knew it was in the works but hadn't heard anything. I just uploaded some gifs and yup they are still gifs.

Thank you once again!

No best for last here, they are just coming out wiht no real plan really.

I wish I had the ability to make my own artwork but I'm lucky I have gotten this far since I just started using PhotoShop less then a month ago.

I'm having alot of fun doing this and learning as I go!

Thanks again to everyone who submitted templates to the template competition. The winners are posted on the main template competition thread.

We have now added the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place templates to the Auctiva Templates.

They are called:

Watermelon Picnic

Happy New Years!
