this is a great looking piece of work.

[quote who="Stramp" reply="145" id="2604058"]I just uploaded a Logon XP logon and at first the preview was there , then it diaappeared. Also the file size for the original preview was 803KB 1440x900 and won't let me select the entire pic, so I changed it to a 1280x960 and it took. Why- these are way under 2MB??? Same prob as redneckeddude. [/quote] think it has to do with the handprint (thunbnail) sizing. when clicked upon to expand, the whole preview is shown. something el
I tried to upload on FF and it seemed to work. the place holder had the preview and the comments, so I assume that it did. having some issues with ie8?
[quote who="Snowman" reply="1" id="2603533"]It did make it through intact.... Gonna have to ask you to try again. Sorry. [/quote] not a problem, but how will I know that it has been successful?
how do I know if my submission has been uploaded properly. what I saw was a template of the page where it would be looked at. it did not show the preview or wba link.
hope you're doing well Ed
[quote]Why would anyone have to purposely set up special tabbed browsing in order to navigate a website?[/quote] I look at WC and WC forums as separate websites and open each in their separate tabs, just seems to make it a little easier.
all links are active and working for me using IE8 and "yep", tabbed browsing seems the best way to go. although it doesn't remember my settings across the platforms. AND, I think someone owes me an apology for the "no, we don't use flash for those items".
I enabled this feature and didn't see any difference and while I'm still not sure I understand, it seems like it could be a good thing. I'll play with it some more. new things to learn.
what is the status of accessing our "my settings" page???
[quote]gmc2: To your issue of things not showing up in IE8, there is no flash or third party cookies.[/quote] You have no idea what I have went through to correct this problem, but to give you a hint, it did involve two system restores. AND FINALLY; flash disabled = problem, flash enabled = NO problem
[quote]gmc2: To your issue of things not showing up in IE8, there is no flash or third party cookies. It could still be something in your settings (particularly if you are blocking some javascript), I'm guessing there is something in your IE, either a setting or an add-on that is interfering with your view. Especially since it is working for you in other browsers. [/quote] I'm bummed, I have no idea. not blocking Java and the only suspect add-on would be IE7 Pro, disabling that has no
[quote]Quoting gmc2, reply 10is there an explanation of why one would use the flatten catagories option, I'm not understanding the what or why. Click here for more information on the Flatten Forum Categories option.[/quote] gosh, feeling dense, still don't get it. I saw what it did but...
[quote]I could be looking to get flamed here but I think the move was made way before the site was ready.[/quote] I don't think people will flame you for stating the obvious, it's kind of a Yo-da statement. I signed up to be a subscriber and user not a beta tester. While I don't mind helping out occasionally switching to the new site in it's present condition has created, for me at least, a frustrating experience. Those things that I am accustomed to see/do here are not presen
just a suggestion: take it back to a good restore point before the drivers were updated and see what's what. I have a geforce gtx285, the cureent driver rev. is 8.17.11.9621. there was a later one but it was pulled for some reason.
is there an explanation of why one would use the flatten catagories option, I'm not understanding the what or why.
[quote]Also, the missing text that gmc2 is reporting is on XP with IE8. It works fine in Vista and 7.[/quote] nope, win7, 64-bit
from another thread, I'm using IE8 and I am unable to rate skins as the star rating thingee is missing as well as the author's comments. Checked with FF and they are there and working with that browser. Is "flash" or "third party cookies" involved with either of these two items?
[quote]Comments and ratings are working in IE8 for me.[/quote] not here. I did check with FF and it is working okay and I'm seeing the comments with that browser. NOW, that I know which stars to hover over I can see that the star rating on the blind's page is missing. is "flash" or "third party cookies" involved with either of these two items? EDIT: MOVED TO THE BUG THREAD
[quote who="Snowman" reply="5" id="2599322"] Quoting gmc2, reply 3 not only that but how do we rate skins with the new. also it seems that the author's comments are missing?. To rate, just hover your cursor over the amount of stars you want to give the item, and click. Missing author comments? Not in my browser. [/quote] Sorry, not working with my IE8. no mouseover response from the stars and no author's comments. is Imagesh
[quote]my point is... I think there is a balance here. It may be weighted one way or the other from time to time but in the long run there is equal exposure for everyone.[/quote] I can agree with you for the old site however my initial impression of the new site is different but only time will tell. [quote]Showcasing those who have been here the longest,worked the hardest,helped the community the most and produced the finest work isn't necessarily a bad thing.[/quote
not only that but how do we rate skins with the new. also it seems that the author's comments are missing? maybe I'll just come back next week and check the status of these things.
I can wait and would rather do it myself, thanks for the offer.
Kestral, I'll bet that these things you mentioned have been discussed within the forum and I just plain missed them, glad to hear about them. I did attempt to access my settings and had a page fail but that is understandable with the change over. I'll look again later. Also sounds as though there is something in the works along the lines of "my skins", very glad to hear that. It's not that I dislike a lot of things, it is just that there were some dissapointments. By your feedbac
I'm wanting to delete some of my old blinds off of the site, how do I do that?
