Ranking guides said that I should not create a red line if the BPM is not changing in the song,
But also it requested me to make the barlines on the downbeats.
What if I meet some bars with 4/4 and then a single bar in 3/4 or 2/4? I can't find anyway to change the number of beats in a bar in a green line configuration ;-;

Also, I can see background pictures on the left of each beatmap in my map list, but not my map.
And my map actually has a background picture added by Design -> Background Picture / Video.
Does it automatically add a picture after I upload the map or do I have to set something?

Thanks a lot for your help!

Changes of the time signature usually warrant the use of additional red lines.
Not sure about the picture, I think you have to upload it so that a thumbnail-pic is created.

You should make new red points if the timing signature changes (from 4/4 to 5/4, from 7/4 to 3/4, just every possible option) or when the downbeat resets at a later beat (some songs have a 1 beat gap after the downbeat the refrain ends on, and then a new downbeat starts)

As for the thumbnail, only submitted maps have thumbnails
