PrusaPrinters.org file upload glitch
I don't know if this is quite the right forum to report glitches on prusaprinters.org but I guess I'm going to find out shortly! 😉
@ondrej-stritesky I've successfully uploaded a hundred or so models using the main "drag/browse" button however over the last week or so it no longer accepts (my) STL files, throwing up the following error message (truncated by the forum software):
It seems that the STL files are being interpreted as gcode. I can and do upload them without a problem using the separate "MODEL FILES" upload buttons lower on the page, but for now they don't like being attached in a batch.
Thanks!

Hi Peter. Unfortunately, Prusa is undergoing issues from their website to their model database to their printer quality at the moment. Seem to be going downhill fast.
It may be best to use the better websites like thingiverse, thangs etc (I know it is strange to refer to thingiverse as 'better' but in this case that is sadly true).
Most models on the Prusa site are just duplicated from the better, more reputable sites and posting to the Prusa database just limits the number of people who can benefit from your models (and you dont get any benefit from Prusa but *may* benefit from tips elsewhere). At this rate, Prusa wont be around much longer if they dont improve their business model and your models will then be "lost in the ether".

@dontbuyprusa: we generally say: "you did it in slices" when too much is too much.
DISCLAIMER:
I am not and will never be an employee of Prusa Research unless they offer me 100K € gross per year. I have friends who built the printer starting from a wooden frame ... that says a lot.
1+1=10 - take a look at my disgusting and useless models
