Ever since we launched Dream.WinCustomize.com earlier this year, we've been working on improvements to our upload system to handle large file sizes. In the past, users would just have clicked the submit button, waited and hoped it all worked. There was no display of upload progress, and for users with exceptionally large files to upload, often the browser would timeout. Well, we've made some steps to alleviate those problems. Now, there is an upload script in testing that shows a progress bar indicating how much of the file has been uploaded, the current transfer speed, as well as a time-left and time-elapsed counter. Improved error messages have also been added to help troubleshoot upload issues.
Net Dev is really close to signing off on the new upload script as "done" and have it be the main method people use to upload content, but before that happens, we need a week or two of heavy testing/usage to make sure we catch and iron out all the kinks. That's where you come in.
