Post Processing Game

By the way, i use a cloud service, but that is almost all off the time privat

But here, this link will work for 4 days
http://shares.sportpla​atje.nl …ive.sportplaatj​e.nl/temp/

I also encountered weird things on the first hosting site. When I went to that site and began to type in the box for the captcha, a spam page opens and then as another starts to open, my anti-virus program blocks it with a warning about advising me not to open that page. At that point I closed everything using ctl+alt+del. I also didn't like the first site not allowing me to close it without a message popping up about "am I sure I want to leave this page?" Anyplace that forces me to click on something before I can proceed like that is a warning to stay away in my book.

I didn't encounter any issues with the second hosting site.

i have downloaded my own file 4 times now.
and not Ones i did get spam or anything else anoying.
Please dont klick blind and read what it says.
you proberly have the option to Download faster with 180upload download accelerator Clicked!!!
Just click that off

I'm pretty much just following the thread for the fun - but on the download topic:
You need to assume the average internet user has no clue what a link is and just clicks indiscriminately... - Yepp, on a browser with an Adblocker it is fine, for anybody who actually reads what the site says it is fine.

Unfortunately most people don't even bother to read... (download links, error messages, etc.)

Reading what part of the site lets me know how to aquire the image? Click the download button, the 'watch now' button, answer the captcha question, copy/paste the 'download code'? By the way, because others before me said to just answer the captcha question, that's what I attempted to do. When I clicked in the text box, that's when the spam pages began popping up.

weird i dont see that.

What i see is this,

I had no issues with the original site either.

First time I clicked the link there were no fields. Just a "continue" button.
Second time everything was all right and I could have downloaded the file.
I just tried again and this is what I am seeing now. No matter how often I try to reload the page or ask for a new captcha, field stays empty.

That site has definitely issues.

To be honest, you have a download and watch now button which makes no sense followed by a video which again can't be right.
Leaves only the captcha.

Though with an Adblocker there is no issue in the first place (the other screenshots).

And as I mentioned, as soon as I clicked in the text box to type an answer, even though the question made no sense either, that's when the spamming began. I find it annoying that anyone would assume that just because someone had issues with spam, it's because they don't know how to read. Please don't make judgments without knowing all the facts.

Besides, why utilize a site that doesn't make it straightforward on how to download a file? I don't use an ad blocker and normally don't go to sites where I would need one. I think Mozes made the right choice by deleting that site from his favorites and I presume next time, he'll use a site that's more user friendly.

You seem very positive in what's what! However, I've an Adblocker installed. Never saw ads. But the site didn't work 2 out of 3 visits all the same...

Same here, with a adblocker no problems ad all.
And when a ad is blocked, the adblocker tells me that, and i have the choice to do with it whatever i want on that moment.

By the way, i cant believe that someone can do without it.
i never now on beforehand if a site have ads, even when a site does not have them, a link on a that site can have them, (many sites have the ad "doubleclick") and that can give problems later.
No matter on witch site you later come, it gets in your cookie system, and people bring it to other sites.

Ontopic

Congrats BadAppleArts.
I like your edit the most.
Speciale the color in the background, it give some admosfeer to the image.
Nice Job.

I now that the image did have bad color and contrast.
Its the time of year and the time the shot was taken, something you can practicly not plan with sport.

i did a black and white of the shot myself.
