Have questions about this year's MOC event? Post them here!


How do I find my MOC Layouts thread after everyone has created theirs?
You have a couple of different options - you can bookmark it and add the bookmark to your browser's tool bar. You can capture the link to your thread (right click the title of your thread, then choose "copy link location" from the drop down, and then add the link your TLP signature. You can then get to your thread by clicking your siggie!

Do I have to scrap 12x12 pages for MOC?
No, you can scrap in whatever size you normally scrap, as long as your pages fully comply with the rules of each challenge. The only exception is we do not allow ATC (Artist Trading Cards) during MOC.
 
Hi there- I tried to click on the MOC layouts link in the guidelines, and it says I don’t have access. Is it just closed until Jan 1, or do I need to do something else beyond registering? Thanks!

I am guessing those are not open yet and will be soon. With the time difference you might have to wait a little longer before all goes live. Thank you for your patience. Happy MOC 13!

Question: When posting to our primary MOC13 Layouts thread, we have to link the gallery page correct? Or is it OK to just use the BB Code? I notice when I use the BB-code it only opens up the image, but not the actual gallery link where my photo is? This has always confused me. Do we need to link the gallery page or just use the BB-code?
 
If you are using the bottom Gallery BB code, your photo should be clickable once you save the post; however, you must use the bottom BB code for this to happen. Hope that helps.

There are actually 3 BB codes. 1 indeed copies the layout to the thread without the link. The gallery BB one both copies the image AND the link to the gallery you've posted it in. You've probably copied the second one in this list? You'll need the last one to make it work (see image below)

Hope this helps!
 
The Copy Gallyery BB code on the bottom is the one to use. When you do that, we can click right into the gallery by clicking on the image.

This is the easiest way to do. There are other ways that just add steps.

Thank you! I wasn’t in a rush, but with new rules etc, I wanted to be sure I didn’t miss anything. I see it now!
 
I've created my layout and have added it to the thread for 1st January. I have gone to the my layouts thread but can't see how to post on here. There is a grey box at the bottom of the screen on the right which says "you have insufficient privileges to post threads here". Can you let me know what I need to do to fix this please. Thanks

Hi Tilly!! Welcome to The LilyPad. The privilege thing is part of the forum warm up and helps minimize spam. I did go head and clear you and moved you over to the safelist. so you should be good to post without needing approval and have enough privileges. Let us know if you need further assistance with sharing the layouts in the thread, etc.
