Hi Messmer. I was unable to identify any issues with the numbering in our casting sets. Could you please tell me exactly where you saw this problem so I can fix it?

Hi Sarah, thanks for taking an interest in our comments and concerns. I can't really tell you which zip file I found the mixed up pictures in because I deleted all of them, all I remember is that this particular zip file might have been the one that was over 3 Gigs big. You would show a number of pictures of one model, then all of a sudden an unconnected picture of another model would pop up, then back to the original one and this kept repeating itself. There were also pictures of a model getting dressed after the audition of what appeared to be a startlingly short set, a new model would come on for a few pictures and then there would once again be a return to the previous model who had just got finished dressing, but this time she was still in the middle of her audition.
I didn't check the whole set because I got annoyed, so you should find the culprits fairly early in the set(s). I watched the sets with the viewer that's built into my zip utility rather than unzipping them, maybe that could be the problem but it would be the first time this sort of thing has happened to me.
Love your site.

Thanks Messmer!
We fixed the problem. I believe you ran into issues because of the numbering of our pics in the latest casting. When downloaded all together in the zip pack, certain pictures may have appeared out of order. Thanks for pointing this out and we'll make sure this doesn't happen again.

Messmer, I couldn't remember from when I was a member but do they allow member voting for these mass auditions, or is it just BTS long after the audition?
It'd be pretty cool if they allowed a democratic audition selection but I bet the webmasters would have some serious disagreements. Hell, they've been selecting ALS-approved models for well over a decade I'm sure they have a more finely tuned wow-factor meter. ; - )

Turboshaft, my sincerest apologies. I never realized that I had failed to respond to your question. I just came across it today as I looked in on the site because of a new review. And four months later: The BTS selection process was published after the fact so I don't think there was any voting! :-)

REPLY TO #6 - messmer :
No worries, I didn't even realize I had asked a question! :-)
I sort of knew the answer anyway as I think Alex had mentioned on ALS' blog that they wouldn't allow members to actually choose the models. I think we've also discussed it here in the reviews or in the forum somewhere that ALS doesn't do this, and basically no site lets its members make hiring decisions.
The only "voting" that goes on is in e-mail correspondence, and possibly sites like this as well, where a model is popular enough to come back for a second shoot. Of course, in ALS' case they can all come back!
