I can't believe the image queue has gotten down to less than 1000 images already. I swear it was over 20,000 two days ago.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but these are the same thing, are they not?

Also, I just figured I'd give my stance on this ahead of time in case any one decides to bring it up. I think it could be argued that sandbox should be combined with these two, but I'd have to disagree, which is why I haven't requested it be merged. I've always thought the term "open-world/free-roaming" constituted nonlinear level design, whereas "sandbox" meant nonlinear gameplay. While many open-world games are also sandbox games and vice versa, I think there are at least a few cases where a game falls into one category but not the other. Shadow of the Colossus is a good example. While the world is pretty open and nonlinear, the gameplay is anything but. You have to fight the sixteen colossi in order, and after defeating each colossus you're returned to a shrine, where you then set out for the next monster.

"Yesterday I upload around 50 images at the same time. However, only 30 of them were available to "organize" (captions, galleries, etc.). All 50 images were added to my personal gallery, however, the 20 images missing haven't been uploaded to the game page. Can somebody shed more light on this?

I think you could be right about this. I just uploaded 52 images and exactly 30 appeared on the organization page. It could just be a coincidence, but it's very likely that there is a cap on how many can be added to the gallery at the same time. It's a bit of a pain, since I have to wait until these 30 are approved before I can upload the rest, and sometimes it can take three or four days for my images to get approved.

I uploaded a few images and added them to a few galleries, and the site said that I had successfully submitted them, but they've yet to show up in my image queue.

Using Firefox 3.0.1.

#35. That probably won't last long though.
