I'm not so sure it is working correctly yet. I kept requesting around 8600 seconds of work and got nothing for hours.

That's unrelated to the new website though. There is currently no work available in the project. I'm not sure if anyone announced there would be any work soon...

I maybe made a mistake here - I could delete the old profile-picture - but after addinmg a new one, I only get a white page and I´d like to know what to do now

Try again. Apparently the problem with avatars and profiles was fixed .

If you accidently created a new user account then you will have to contact the management team to see if they can resolve the situation.

He is part the management team...

I'd appreciate being notified when work is released. Even if the notification involves a horn while I'm sleeping; I won't mind.

I forgot something. In the folder I sent to Karina there's a file called "dah_stat_icon.png". This one must be send by the D@H server to the attached clients.
It will appear in the projects' box ("My Projects") in the simple gui. If there's none on the server the default BOINC icon will appear instead as you can see in the screenshot.
Maybe the file has to be renamed to "stat_icon.png" and it looks like this:

This will also work for other skins. But it will make D@H look different and you can easily find it between all those default icons as not every project has a special "stat_icon" yet. ;-)

Andre / Karina / whoever_is_in_charge_of_it: Here is how to set the server to send the stat_icon. I'm not currently attached to the project, so maybe you already did it and I didn't notice :)

Message boards : Number crunching : zero credits for valid result??

This seems to be a strange quirk in the boinc validator code. The number of target results gets bumped up if the number of success results is larger than the number of target results:

[snip]

At some point this will go past the max. number of successful results and all results get invalidated (see code above). I will try to find out more about this, because it doesn't make complete sense to me.

By the way, this only happened in 37 cases in the database, so not too much. But still want to find out why the validator does this.
