Can anyone please tell me if there is a place here to invite someone to join the Library.... i did a quick look about but didn't find anything like that.
Thanks!

I was wondering if anyone else has an issue with firefox crashing when browsing the library stories??? I think it might do it other times, but the overwhelming majority of the time is on the library, but not the forums. It does it OVER and OVER and OVER!

The firefox page mentions problematic plugins. Does the library use any plugins to run?

I know I can dl Opera or something, but i already know and like firefox, and would like to try to fix it before i give up.

Firefox works for some, but the site is designed for IE & runs best off of it. Again, Firefox users will say they run the site fine on Firefox, but we definitely recommend IE.

As for plug ins... I don't think the Library requires anything crazy-- ironically, chat requires the most (updated Java, cookies enabled & sufficient quantity)...

[SauvagePouline]

thanks for the information Delia. I have been using IE most of the night and it is working. What is strange, is that I've been using firefox for quite a while, and never had trouble with it until the last month ago.

oh the joys of computers.

Hello

I am having trouble with a couple areas of the site.

When I try Pics, no categories contain any images.

When I try Models, I get an error type page titled "Index of /models", a link to the parent directory, and some information about perl, Unix, and Apache, which I assume is hosting/design information that I should not really see and so I think it might be a bit pooched.

I am running Opera for a browser, so I do not know if it is a browser issue, or if I need to fiddle my settings.

Thanks in advance for your help.

I get the same thing for models and pics too (just checked) and I am on IE.

There is a members pictures section twords the bottom of the forums.

[MollysMaster]

How can I change how people can contact me? Would like to add Messenger to the list but can't figure out how to.

Thanks!

[Ozme52]

Look up... the forum menu... just left of center...

User CP is your control panel for changing all your preferences, signature, avatar, etc.

[MollysMaster]

Thanks!

Well i made the effort and read through some of the forums that caught my eye and in the end I see this is just not for me. I want to close down my account but I can not find any instructions anywhere. please advise.

Send a PM to an admin (Torq, Widget or myself).

I know people can use animated gifs for their avatars, but when I try to upload one it only shows the first frame. What am I doing wrong?

[denuseri]

I have the same problem before myself leo.

<<not a technical expert though so unless the system tells me why I have just rolled with the flow.

Actually happy you asked the question, mabey I can learn somthing here too.

I'd always used the same avatar with an resolution of 250 x 250. Today I changed it with a new, smaller one, just for testing its look. When I re-installed my old one, it was automatically down-sized to the new maximum resolution of 150 x 150.

My question is: is it possible to set my avator back to the larger size which it had for almost two years? It means much to me!

Thanks.

Why am I only given the option to "soft delete" visitor messages?
thanks

[thepast]

Absolutely only given the option to soft delete them. If you need a hard delete, please send a PM to Torq or I and we'll take a look at it. More times then not, soft deletes are messages that end up being needed to sort out conflicts, drama, and perception discrepancies. Hence, they are only soft deleted so that if needed, an admin can recover them as "evidence."

Regards,

delia

[craven]

sounds sensible to me

[caligirl{Rob}]

lol okay, no biggie just bugs me to have old messages, guess I'm anal that way

so don't take it personally anyone if it says message deleted was just trying to clean house LOL

[Trainstation]

Hi, new here, so please bear with me. On my computer at the office, no problem. However whenever I try to access this site at home, I get a warning from my virus protection software (Norton) that I am about to enter a dangerous site. It gives me the option of not entering which I take. Any suggestions.
Love the site BTW...

[thrall]

question...

Have the avatars been set to a standard size???...150x150??...

or is there a distortion thing going on......

thanks

[Ozme52]

Yep, I noticed mine was all stretched out and I hope we all don't have to resize and resubmit them... just to have them revert at some point.

[Ozme52]

I get nothing of the sort from McAfee, not even their site advisor which warns of spammy email, ad or spyware, even if there are links to such sites.

This is a green site.

Heh... green.


Does Norton give a site report?

[his_girl_l]

Mine too and i don't like it!

And resizing is probably beyond my tech skills.

If this is permenant, could someone please tell me how to resize and what to resize to?

Thankyou. xx

[girly]

i thought this was just my pc or something.... how annoying - please please someone fix it

[Tufty]

Thrall, honey...you look all squashed

[craven]

Igirl, your avi now looks like a wonderfully old work of art, i like it a lot

[Venom]

craven, you are right concerning Igirl's avatar, but I want mine back to its old 250x250 glory!

[Venom]

I'm have used Norton, too, before I went to my current anti-virus programm. Both had no problem with this site, and I never get a "cold" here...

By the way, Trainstation: you are looking at those nasty sites during work time?!
