"uploaded album content" error

nightmapzz  •  5 days ago

Hi guys, I've been trying to upload this one album for a couple weeks now, but most of the photos i try uploading just show up as "uploaded album content", and when i try to publish it, the image names some up rather than the actual images themselves. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Is it an error on the websites end or mine? Thanks

Question about non-typical photos of Level 1's

ArcAngel  •  4 weeks ago

I was wondering how one should handle posting photos of things tagged as level 1's if you have photos that would potentially no longer meet that criteria (e.g. photos from inside a publically accessible thing that you are not *generally* permitted into)?

New user with tier 4 location

KeyHb  •  1 month ago

Hey, I have a tier 4 location that I went to a bunch of times. I'm afraid that posting it as a level 1 account will compromise the space. What should I do? PSA: the location is an abandoned office with a chemistry lab, incredibly intact, chemical equipment is still there.

Question on getting caught

romxn  •  2 months ago

Hi everyone, I almost have enough confidence to finally urban explore after watching it on youtube for 2 years, but I have one question about if I get caught. Assuming I am caught by police and not a property owner, does the consequence I face fully depend on the officer? I know i can mitigate the potential consequences by not carrying anything that would suggest me doing worse activities like weapons etc. Is it just a gamble essentially if I get a warning or a charge? On a side note, i was thinking to explore the Anaconda Brass in etobicoke, would this be an okay beginner spot?

Hello OAP, my name is Mikah and I am applying for level 2 status. I've been on here for a couple years (which was about when I started exploring) but have mostly just been lurking until recently. "Living in trailers but life is a movie" in Oakville was my first explore and I've been to 50-55ish places since, From Hamilton to Oshawa, and north to Simcoe County.

Hey OAP Community, I’m writing to respectfully request a promotion to Level 2. I believe I’ve met the current requirements, with over three months of active participation, four documented locations, and 15 albums uploaded featuring a variety of sites and content levels. I also have many more albums in the pipeline, ready to be shared with the community. I first got into urbex back in October. At the time, I struggled to find quality locations, but being part of this community has helped me grow significantly in both knowledge and experience. I’ve worked hard to contribute meaningful content, and I’m excited to keep exploring and sharing more. Thank you for considering my request, and I appreciate everything this community has done to support my urbex journey. Best regards, JMacUrbex

I usually get my locations through word of mouth and g earth scouting, but now that I moved all of that got harder. Been doing this for 5 years but I guess why not give back to a community :) (plus I've been gatekeeping all my pics for way too long) I put some nice albums up that I hope you appreciate, can't wait to meet and maybe even explore with some of you all.

Re-applying for level 3, I understand I have not met the requirements last time but I think I do now, ill give a quick break down of my contributions: 70 interior locations 4 exterior locations 200 interior albums 4 exterior albums (you can see the levels of my locs on the side panel) I also got a proper camera with which I am still learning new things about how to use it, but overall my photos are a lot better now and over half of my albums are with that camera so no more blurry grainy shots. but yep thats pretty much it, not much else to say, i hope you consider my re-application, and btw if you want to read more about how I explore and how I started, then you can look at my denied application, I wrote a bunch of stuff there.

Being apart of the OAP community for the last 9 months has definitely been.. interesting to say the least xD I am a bit sad that most (basically all) of you live across the country so I haven't been able to meet up with anyone *yet*, but I have made some friendships over discord which is great! I've been exploring for as long as I can remember (really got more into it around 7 years ago), but was never really interested in the photography aspect of the hobby until joining the site and looking through old albums. I also lived my life with only thoughts and wonder of what a location could've been rather than spending hours trying to dig up history behind it. I reside 4hrs away from the closest major city, which is why most of my finds are old farm properties. I do have a long(ish) list of locations ranging from BC, AB & SK I am beyond excited to make trips for though:D Anyways, I look forward to the feedback and thanks for reading a sliver of my backstory & nightshift rambling lol.
