Ty for the welcome! It's def relieving to know that my old doodles not appearing is normal, I'd saved them all at the time so nothing is lost happily!
Oh and my bad, when I said upload I meant publishing it. It kinda was published in a mess bc I was trying to rename the file but I just clicked on the wrong button and published it instead haha, but yeah the message that popped up let me know it had been published and was awaiting a moderator to approve it. I've recently changed my username on here from xfumikux to Fumiku but I think that was before publishing it so I don't think that would be the problem. I can definitely describe it to you tho, its name should be Rouge or if the renaming did work a toyhou.se link ending with rouge and it looks exactly like
this.
I use oekaki with my computer mostly. I do see the profile option on the bar when I hover over it, but clicking it brings me to the options to edit my profile, not view it. I haven't found any link to my profile or option in preferences or otherwise that would make a change. Oh and clicking on my icon takes me to a page about logging out so I assume that's not it.
Thanks a lot for replying! It does help a lot. I'm thinking of uploading 2 more gifs done with animaki today since I need more doodle space & it's full and I'd need coins to buy more of that, though now I'm kinda worried as to if I should wait until more light is shed upon this before doing that. I think I'll still go ahead and publish
this one and see what happens. I wanna start another doodle now so we do what we must haha
update:: I've now also published
this one and I've noticed that I do get coins. I've also remarked that when publishing, my screen goes white with some writing on it, coding or otherwise, for a second before saying my doodle has been submitted to being reviewed by a mod etc, and that heppened every time. What I noticed this time is the word "illegal" repeating. I thought it might be coding but that word does make it p weird? How the page is organized it's like:
dghfb gdhd illegal gdhhcnnm ghdjndmn hdhd
dghfb gdhd illegal gdhhcnnm ghdjndmn hdhd
As in it kept repeating that and it still had space between the phrases. I didn't notice the other words, or even if the sentence was always the same but it did look like every sentence was the same except for a few at the top of the screen, I'm saying that bc of the general lenght of the words and sentences.
I guess now would be a good time to say that I mostly publish my doodles for coins so I can buy upgrades, so if my doodles got like, disintegrated or smth I won't be super sad. I could try submitting smth else and taking a screenshot of the error page hm.
update 2:: after seeing it another time it does seem to be coding, I saw raw and /text. Maybe it's because the issue seems to be solved but I didn't see the illegal word this time, so who knows maybe I'd imagined it and was wrong about that
