Pending Game Thumbnails - Nintendo's chosen hero - 08-06-2017

So I was reading this thread about "Why is my sheet taking so long to get on the site?" and it was really helpful. I was able to fix what was wrong with some of my submissions. But I couldn't fix the most common problem that was holding my submissions back in approval limbo.
reason #3: The sheet is fine, but the section icon isn't.
This happens when ther is no thumbnail for a pending game, or the thumbnail just sucks. when a SHEET is missing a thumbnail, you can either wait for the staff to make one, or you can edit your submission, and add the thumbnail yourself.
Ther is no way to edit pending submissions of the game itself thow, so even if all of the sheets you have uploaded for a thumbnailless pending game are perfect and follow every rule, they will just be stuck in approval limbo (or approval Hell) I'm Evil! and there is nothing you can do about it.
so I sometimes cant get a good thumbnail because everything in all my screenshots is too big to fit, and I don't want to distort it by scaling it down, but that shouldn't be my ONE CHANCE to get the game approved! Angry
Ther are a couple of games that I have created thumbnails for since submission, but I wont be able to use them to get the game approved faster UNTIL THE GAME IS ALLREDDY APPROVED! Angery
Why isn't ther a button to edit pending games just as you would pending submissions? Sad VGResource staff, I beg of you, add such a button. Very Sad add it to the "your pending submissions" Page. Add it to the "Add a submission to a pending game" page. I don't care, just add it! Cry

This has been brought up before and there just isn't enough call for an edit pending game option for non-staff. If you'd like to supply a game icon (or a replacement) for one of your submissions though, please feel free to post it on the forum. The errors thread is commonly used but we can create a specific thread for that purpose as well.
