Eep, yeah, the profile's definitely a little messed up. I haven't updated it in quite a while and the site's made some changes again -__-.
I'm going to see if I can get it to go back to the way it was supposed to be.
It definitely still has all the information it's supposed to be, but it's not showing up right.

If the profile is broken then how the pet win? I have a nice one on Harry Dresden and he still hasn't won once *sigh*

I think tho some ppl put the scroll at hidden because they think it looks nicer not to have to scroll w/out realizing that everyone has different sized screens and resolutions and so locking it makes it difficult to see the profile on certain screens (I used to do it too until I realized that fact lol). But other things broke I think after the profile was in queue, just too bad that the owner, doesn't seem to be around atm to see and fix it. Life happens, just too bad all around that this sorta thing happens sometimes.

I was really excited about this pet (D&D! Forgotten Realms!) but what's up with the busted profile?

@odduckOasis ; I checked my profiles and they're fine. I think certain lines of this profile's code are outdated and broken. The background and content tags have overflow set to hidden, which is the reason why it won't scroll for anyone. The code must have broke after being put in the spotlight queue.

I had to zoom out to see a button for the story.. at which point the writing was so small i couldn't read. :/
I'm not impressed at all..

It looks like the source code is supposed to include a pet overlay image, there's a link in the code for a pic off of photobucket, but it's not showing on the profile. The owner info has a opacity and hover code, but it too isn't showing up either. I guess this profile was probably working when it got accepted into the queue, but since there was some edits to the site or something it's broken. =/ dunno why tho, the coding all seems ok, so that's odd... 8/
Like I said, it's just too bad and annoying that the edits to the site can adversely affect the profiles like that, esp if we don't check them regularly. 8/

@engrave @odduckOasis ; Can one of you do a View Source to see the code? If those sections aren't coded to be hidden then the problem isn't the profile but the changes being made behind the scenes on Subeta's end. I'm on my phone at work so I won't be able to check the code until about 4 hours from now.
I don't want to say the pet didn't deserve to win if what we're all seeing isn't meant to be the finalized profile.

It's really irritating when the coding being tweaked on teh site messes so much with the CSS code of pet profiles. Another friend of mine told me something went wonky with hers so I had to check mine to make sure they weren't also crazy again, there were some things awry I had to fix... so irritating when it's not something we're informed about on a regular basis so to keep on top of our pages. Sometimes things are affected, sometimes they're not and working on pet profiles isn't something I do every single day...
But ok, congrats to Shakespeare on this win, too bad that the profile got wonked up, but I did look at the others and they do look nice. Hopefully she'll see and fix it so we can see it properly for what it's supposed to be.

If you look at Shakespeares other Pet: https://subeta.net/petinfo.php?petid=815457 I could see for a split second the pet, name, owner etc. and suddenly the background blocked out everything. SO I guess this is the problem here as well?!

Congratulations on the win though I couldn't see much other than an image and the TC section. :/
This problem isn't new for me, my pets profiles don't show up properly either. I'm currently using Chrome as my primary browswer.

Something is definitely wonky. The owner is Shakespeare and she's won spotlight many times so she knows what she's doing. I visited her other pets and while they're all amazing I was stopped by Scritches....what a cutie! I am in love! I hope Scritches is her next win. Yes, I know this is awful: one pet won and I'm cooing over another.

zoom out and there's a poem. but no picture of the pet. I don't think this follows the rules

I'm fairly certain it's just an issue with CSS. There've been a lot of changes with the site lately (example: the font), and it sure keeps us coders on our toes. Why, just yesterday I was alerted to the fact that my pets' TCs were awry, even though just the day before that, they were the way I wanted them to be.

Wait... if the winner isn't the username that is the only linked one there, how do we know who the winner is? I'm confused.... lol.
I guess congrats to the true user winner?

lol! Great... account up for clearing, pet wins spotlight for user that doesn't even play.
Love the waste of the win for someone that won't even care.
I guess it was re-nominated after all were kicked from queue the last time they did that for the update or whatever? Which is funny, considering the user is MIA. Whatever. Congrats to non-existent user, sure.

Had to minimize the page to 67-75% to even see the text at the bottom to click on story...

Overlay credit goes to a person who apparently has been inactive for their account's entire existence.

This probably was an old submission that was in queue for awhile. Regardless, congrats on the win!

How did this profile win? It's just a background image and a treasure chest.
At least that's all i can see. I clicked all over and nothing is popping up.

Just checked the rules. They haven't changed from the last time I saw them.

@Poetry, you have to click on Story near the bottom of the image. Regardless, the profile doesn't seem to follow the rules and guidelines? I don't know who owns this pet or what the pet's gender is. I thought these things could not be hidden from the profile. Unless the rules changed?

I'm just gonna have faith that this was a good pet spotlight, because for some reason the coding isn't working right on my computer and I can't see anything but the TC and background. :/
Congratulations, regardless. C:
