Cannot upload

Hi, I am trying to upload a project to share.  I have doen this 3 times now from within Scratch (1.3)  The program reports that it has been uploaded but I cannot find it on the scratch website.  Is there a time lag?
Thanks

Re: Cannot upload

The page refreshes every minute. If you don't see it on the front page, try looking at the My Stuff page or click on the projects at the top and check the newest ones.

Re: Cannot upload

Thanks Zelda, I've been doing that.  It does not appear on My Stuff.  I have logged in and out several times, refreshed, closed the browser, reopened it, tried different browsers, pulled my hair out etc etc .... :-) nothing appears ....

Re: Cannot upload

Scratch says that the project is now online, but no matter what, you cannot see it? This is strange, maybe a problem with the server or something...

Re: Cannot upload

Yeah, it appears that for most people, projects are not uploading...

Re: Cannot upload

I had this problem as well but I managed to fix it by opening Scratch, importing my original project and then saving and uploading it under a different name which I then changed online. As it seemed to be the project name that Scratch objected to, my theory is that it has to an original name so try a search to see whether there are any projects with the same name.

Re: Cannot upload

I had this same problem with my most recent project.  I uploaded it, then deleted it because something wasn't working right.  After that, I tried uploading it again.  Scratch reported that it was up but I could not find it anywhere, even after shutting down and restarting the browser.  Finally, I renamed the project during the Share operation and it showed up.  So I renamed it back to the original name online. 

My theory is that I messed something up by deleting the project, then trying to load it up again.  Did you do something similar with yours?

Re: Cannot upload

That's exactly what I did, I think the only way to fix is right now is to upload under a different name and then change it back once it's online.
