Update pw-change.html, register.html, submit.html

Some images are no longer used but they still exist here for the time
being. Text is used instead though based on some discussion text might
have to change.

Adjusted alt text of some images a bit.

A more thorough look at the way these updates look must still be done.

<p>Here is what it looks like without any uploads and no slot selected:</p>

alt="submit server slots"

alt="submit server submission slots list to select from with no slot selected

<p>Select a slot and then select a file by clicking the button “Choose File”. After
doing this, it should look something like:</p>

alt="submit server slot and file selected"

it. If you wait a moment it’ll show the current filename.</p>
<p>Once you’re certain you have selected the correct file, click “Submit”, below
the file selection step.</p>
<p>When it’s uploaded it should look something like this:</p>
<p><img src="../png/submit.submission-uploaded.png"
alt="submit server submission uploaded"
width=717 height=525></p>
<p>Here you see the details, in particular:</p>
<p>When it’s uploaded it should say something like:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>• Uploaded file: submit.9971ada4-b6ae-427d-a7ec-e67a30362cdb-0.1740838915.txz</p>
</blockquote>
<p>And in the slot it will give you important details like:</p>
<ul>
<li>the status of the submission</li>
<li>the status of the submission (on upload it will say: <code>"uploaded file into slot"</code>).</li>
<li>the filename, which will be in the correct format, assuming you used
<code>mkiocccentry(1)</code> which is <strong>HIGHLY</strong> recommended so that you do not break <a href="rules.html#rule17">Rule
17</a>!</li>
<li>the file length, which <code>txzchk(1)</code> will also verify (the file itself and the
tarball listing)</li>
<li>the upload date</li>
<li>the SHA256 hash of the file</li>
tarball listing).</li>
<li>the upload date.</li>
<li>the SHA256 hash of the file.</li>
</ul>
<p>Now if you’re done, log out.</p>
<p>If, on the other hand,, you upload a file that is too big you will see something
like:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>The file size of N exceeds the maximum size of 3999971.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>And if you try uploading an empty file you’ll instead see:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>The must not be empty.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>And if you see something like:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Filename for slot: 0 must match this regular expression: <code>^submit.dd3d30c2-d8d0-4506-adcd-d4e029147f39-0\.[1-9][0-9] {9,}\.txz$</code></p>
</blockquote>
<p>where <code>0</code> is the slot and <code>dd3d30c2-d8d0-4506-adcd-d4e029147f39-01</code> is the UUID
then you <strong>MUST</strong> upload a properly named XZ compressed tarball, <strong>MAKING SURE</strong> you
package it with <code>mkiocccentry</code>!</p>
<p>If later on you log in and see something like:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Status: server slot error code: 1! Use mkiocccentry to rebuild and resubmit to
this slot.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>or:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Status: submit file failed the txzchk test! Use mkiocccentry to rebuild and resubmit to this slot.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>… or <strong>ANY</strong> other error then you <strong>MUST FIX</strong> your submission, repackage your
tarball with <code>mkiocccentry</code> and upload to the same slot again! If you do not fix
this your submission <strong>WILL</strong> be rejected for violating <a href="rules.html#rule17">Rule
17</a>!</p>
<p>After the submission deadline is reached, you can log in to check the status of
your submissions. Here is what it will look like when the judges have verified
your submissions. This is what it will say when the judges have verified
that your tarball / submission has been validated (NOT judged), by <code>txzchk(1)</code>
and <code>chkentry(1)</code>:</p>
<p><img src="../png/submit.status-updated.png"
alt="submit server status updated"
width=717 height=217></p>
<blockquote>
<p>Status: the format of this submission has been validated.</p>
</blockquote>
<p><strong>IMPORTANT</strong>: this does <strong>NOT</strong> mean that your submission does not violate the
rules or that everything is OK once the tarball is extracted; it simply means
the tests performed by the tools passed. If you find a flaw in the tool and
abuse it and the tests pass then you stand a significant chance of having your
submission rejected for violating <a href="rules.html#rule17">Rule 17</a>, even if the
tests passed.</p>
