As it is a game in which you attempt to do something in the shortest time possible, low scores should be on top.

Thanks for letting me know. If there are others, either mention it here or ping me.

Some of you may have noticed some weird activity today on the site. My apologies. That was me trying to tweak a link to galleries so y'all can

It wasn't working and after a bit of tweaking and such, I went with a simplier solution so there should now be a link in each user's post "bits" (the info on the left) just after the post count info. I'll see about adding it elsewhere into the profile for those times when not looking at posts and you're looking at someone specific.

Thank you for this Linus! I was just going to ask IF this was there somewhere, somehow to see photo's off of folk's profile - and how to work it? (I thought I was missing something right in front of me!)

And here, I didn't want to look "dumb" asking...



*P.S. GREAT job with all of the smiles/emoticons!!!!

(Oh, already asked and answered here somewhere question, but can you explain in a very simple way how to upload a photo for me? I tried like I did at my last site, but it said TOO LARGE! I don't know how to make it smaller to the specifications requested here. I don't even understand what it means! Appreciate it.)


Sincerely,
WILDCAT

It either means the size (in KB) is too big or that the dimensions ( aaa by bbb) is too big. For general members this size limitation is 64KB or 100x100 pixels, whichever is larger.

You can start by going here to resize your picture down to a smaller size: http://www.shrinkpictures.com/

Once it's at that size, then go to the gallery and select Upload photos on the to right-hand side.

Browse for the photo.

Select it and press Okay

Then give the picture a title and select Upload/Submit.

I'd love it if the thread ratings were not anonymous.
I get that it is a privilege members have paid for, but in the interest of transparency I would prefer that the anonymity of raters was removed.
In general, anonymity (in my view) does not encourage accountability or community-mindedness.

Actually, that's not part of the Membership but a default of the forum. I've been trying to find a mod for this since even Admins, AFAIK, don't even know who voted.

Actually we CAN see who voted but not in an easy way. It takes a database query (which I have used once before to see who kept rating a bunch of threads a "1").

From what I have read on the software forums, the bug with voting is also that once someone votes on a thread, other people dont have the chance to vote. - which sucks if someone rates the thread a "1" because then, its there forever

Once we upgrade to the new version of our software, a lot of these issues should be fixed.

Cyclopea, I agree with you. I think that more problems come out of anonymous behavior than its worth sometimes. The accountability factor and all.

thank you for bringing up anonymity Cyclopea. i'd like to add that i sincerely appreciate the AdminOwner(s) for choosing to have Mods patrol the hallways using their own names. it's a pleasant vote of confidence in those chosen to moderate the forums as well as another lovely bit of transparency. gives me a warm fuzzy feeling...faith in my community and all that other important stuff.

i'd like to add my thanx for the wealth of smilies. they're a lot of silly fun and i'll stand in line for a dose of that any day.

p.s. i think Diva should have her own smiley.

This site is all the social networking I do, so I don't know exactly what you mean, but isn't the reps and user notes thing close to what you are referring to?
