Frequently Asked Questions


What is a vexel??
Please check out the What is a Vexel? page.
Is this site free?
Yes, the site is free to use. You can choose to subscribe to get more features but it is not necessary to use the site.
Why can't I use the site themes?
You must be a subscribed user to use the site themes. You can subscribe for $3 through this page.
What is a WatchList?
By adding someone to your watchlist, you will be notified whenever they add a new vexel. It's a great way to make sure you don't miss your favourite vexellers' new additions!
Where's BBCode Guide?
You can access it directly by clicking here.
What is an MB post ??
A post on the Message Board.
do you have to pay to register to the site?
No, registering is completely free. You can choose to subscribe for additional features but you don't have to by any means.
so when you save a vexel, it can't be png?
PNGs aren't allowed on this site, no. Most people do not compress them properly and they end up having unnecessarily large file sizes. Please use JPG or GIF.
How do you remove a vexel from your favourtie list?
Go back to the vexel's page and the button that use to say "Add to favourites" will now say "Remove from favourites" - just click that.
Why am i not eligible to Vote, though i am a Member?
You must be an active member- by active, I mean you must have written at least 5 comments on the site. This is to stop people signing up under multiple names or getting their friends to sign up just to vote for them.
How do I contact admin?
Please leave a message on Linda's user page.
How do you know who has watchlisted you?
On your user page, beneath your favourites there will be a list titled "Watched by". These are all the people who have you on their watch list. This is a subscribers only feature.
how do i start to make a vexel?
Please check out the tutorials section.
Why dosent the password come?
Your email service may flag the email as spam, check your junk box and disable any filters and try again.
Do you recommend buying Adobe Photoshop 7.0 second hand or new from somewhere like ebay and amazon?
I would not recommend buying the program on Ebay - there are too many pirated copies being passed off as the real thing on there. If you're going to pay that much money for a program, I would go through the official site, Adobe.com. Amazon would probably be good too.
Can we use the vexels for layouts and graphics?
Absolutely not. You may contact the artist and ask them first, if they say yes, and only if they say yes, you can use their vexel in a layout.
where i can suggest for votw?
Generally the moderators pick them themselves but you can try your luck and send a message to any of them suggesting one :)
can i add a collaboration (and add it to my gallery) eventhough i'm not one of the vexeller but i'm the author of the collab? =D
Yes, you can.
Can I block someone from commenting?
Nope!
how do you report a photo/non vexel submission?
There are over 10 moderators that will do it for you.
How do you recover a lost password?
Here.
which script was used for this site?
It was entirely written by me using php and mysql.
how often do we have contest?
Usually entries are open for a month and then voting lasts about a week. Most of the time I will start a new one straight after that but this time I left it for a little while - so it's always different really.
can i add more than one entries in any of the competition?
Yes
Will my account automatically logout for me if/when i happened to forgot to logout?
Your login will last 30 days.
how do i know that someone is adding me to their watch list? do i receive any message etc.?
If you are a subscribed member, you will get a message.
my username doesn't exist and neither does my profile page. is this recoverable?
Possibly, please email me linda@fever-design.com with your old username and/or user id number.
How can i delete my account?
Contact me (Linda) and I may do it for you in extreme circumstances. Otherwise you simply have to leave the site and not come back, simple!
How do you recover your login name?
Use the forgotten password page here and it will send you your username and password.
what program is the most handy to use to make a vexel?
The most common would be Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator.
How can I be a moderator?
You can't sorry, I have 10 or so, so we have heaps already. If I ever need any more there will be a post on the message board :)
Can I use the vexels?
No, but try FreeVexels.com.
Who are the moderators?
Linda, Echoia (Echo), TooDarnCool (Taylor), Ilaria, Linds, Carina, Sarah, Retrowings (Rhi), Lisette and Andrea.
why is it that you ccharge $3 for a sub (perfectly understandable) but you dont say whether its AUD or USD etc, but assuming your from australia I went to pay but it comes up as USD on paypal, making it more expensive for me, even though I'm from Aus too?
The cost is $3USD
how do i delete my account
You can't unless there is an extreme circumstance.
Will you release the script this iste uses so that other people can use it too?
No. There is a lot (and I mean a lot) involved in releasing a script, especially one as big as this. You can go to HotScripts and find many Content Management and Image Gallery scripts available there.
why isn't gradient mesh allowed?
Because a vexel is defined by it's use of distinctive shapes. If your gradients can be seen as their own shapes then it is fine.
Is there anyway I can pull up a list of all the people I'm watching?
It is shown on your userpage, below your favorites section. This is a subscribers only feature.
Is it possible to change my username?
Yes, just send a message to Linda with what you want your new username to be. Please check the name isn't taken first though!
How can i remove an unwanted vexel from my gallery
Just go to Your Account > Manage Vexels and click "Delete Vexel" next to the one you want to delete.
how do i view my account?
Go to Your Account > Your User page or just click on your username on the left bar.
How do I upload a vexel?
Go to Your Account > Add a Vexel.
Why are such things like being able to see who is watching me and who I am watching for subscribers only? I feel it seems kind of lame that one would have subscribe just to see who is watching them. But that's my personal opinion.
Subscribers need *something* extra, that's the point of a subscription. Feel free to post your opinion on the message board though, as this is the FAQ.
