I don't know, Jeff, but I'll axe.

Is there a way to unsubscribe from threads?

Hi-
I sent a PM and I responded to a different PM but they don't show up in my sent files.
How do I know if they were sent?
Thanks,
Eric

I'm not sure why those PM's wouldn't be showing up in your "sent" folder. They should be. Hmmmm.

Unless you unchecked the box that says "Save a copy in my outbox".

Does anyone know why my Avatar didn't show up? I put in the URL from flickr but I only got a pic box with nothing in it (so I switched it back). The pic was 216 x 216 pixels at 72dpi so I think it should have worked.  Does it take a while for the Avatar to show up?

I've seen your avatar earlier today and just now .. Is this what you want it to be?



That is what is showing up.

flickr  has some crazy URLs that don't always work. Show me the URL of your pic.

You could also try Photobucket, or ImageShack.

That's an UMA avatar.

No, I switched it back to this one from this site's choices because the pic I wanted from my Flickr page wasn't showing up.

My Flickr URL for the pic is: http://www.flickr.com/photos/parlorofhorror/8723143747/#in/photostream

[Mike Scott]

Here's your problem. You need a URL that ends in .jpg (or .gif).  You had the URL of a page, rather than a file.

Here's the URL you need:

To post using Flickr (I do) you select Share and copy/paste the BBCode it works great, see?

For some reason I can no longer post pictures. When I go to preview or post all I get is a box with an "X" in it. Can you tell me what I am doing wrong? I use photobucket and have tried several postings also tried imageshack and got the same result. Thank you for your time.
