. . . for some reason, those cover scans for the annuals are NOT showing in CPG 2.0, but they ARE in the database. They do show in the CPG 1.0 interface.

Not sure why....

One of the great mysteries of life, no doubt.

So then, at this point you cannot upload cover pics using CPG 2.0. I noticed whenever I follow the instructions there is no "upload cover" to click on.  As mentioned earlier in the thread it doesn't do any good to upload in the old 1.0 since it doesn't show up in the 2.0 interface. Anybody have any idea when the interface will be integrated to allow this?

If a scan is approved it does show up in 1.0 and 2.0.

There are times when scans are not approved due to them not meeting the guidelines at the beginning of this thread.  While sometimes the user is contacted if a scan is declined, this is not always the case due to the large number of scans we have to approve.

If you have any specific ones you have submitted that are not showing, you can PM it to me and I'll let you know why it may have been rejected.

Thanks!

Argus, thanks for your quick post. However, I still have a problem that I mentioned early in the post. "I noticed whenever I follow the instructions there is no "upload cover" to click on" I have followed the instructions on how to get an upload started, but when I go to the area directed, there is no "upload Scan" link showing. I've tried it several times to no avail. Sorry for the hassle, any ideas?  Thanks, Jeff.

Are you using the 'upload a scan' link in the CPG 1.0 interface?

I have been uploading some myself, and have not noticed a problem.

I know Bryan has been doing some work on the 2.0 upload feature, but I have not had any interim problems uploading my scans.

If you are clicking on the 'upload' link in 1.0 and it is still not bringing up the upload window, you may see if you are getting a pop-up block message.

You can even try to hold down the <ctrl> key while clicking on the upload link.  If the box comes up when you press the <ctrl> key, but not otherwise, you are blocking CPG pop-ups.

If the upload box is coming up, but the image itself is not uploading, double check the format (it says it accepts other formats, but I always send .jpg's). 

I am not sure what other suggestions to give at this point.  If the above doesn't address the issue, feel free to PM me.  I may not understand what problem you are actually having.

Thanks!

I've not figured out how to upload scans in 2.0, if it is even possible yet. But the 1.0 version is definitely working.

You cna upload in CPG 2.0 through the view gallery option under each title.  There isn't yet an option on the individual issue page like there is in 1.0.

How do you get to the "View Gallery" option under each title?  Thanks!

When you enter the main title page for a particular series there should be four rectangular lite blue boxes at the top of the page.  The third box is the view gallery link.
