Make sure www. spark img.com where most of the forums images are hosted actually works. Might be me, but I can't even get the images to load in a seperate window. Makes the forum look deserted.

If the pic wasn't posted by one of us, its kinda tough to get it back up.

I have an image cave account and its been reliable for about 2 years now. My pics are still up on the DSMtalk archives.

If you can, post the links, and we will try to get the pics back up by using another host for the pics, if the sites own database of some sorts.

Thanks

I start typing and it changes font type on me and deletes all my text. I don't know why, then I type again and it stays.

Any images on http://www.sparkimg.com/ don't show up mo matter if I use IE/Firefox and copy/paste the url into the address bar. I think it is wierd to, I thought it wasn't just me, that is why I complained. If it works for everyone else I will keep quiet. I am guessing it is something on my end, that is kinda wierd.

Can't see new post/old post icons on the left, and can't see any of the emoticons.

I know what you mean about the stuff you just typed in disappearing. Happens to me all the time. I dunno why or how that stuff happens, but it does get annoying. I realy dont know how to prevent that unless we switch over to one of the more formal forum layout. But I think we have to pay a monthly or yearly due.

K.C. Any idea on how much one of those would run us? Im down to throw in some $

I don't know how the website it set-up. I know you have to have a special server to run php chat forums. Is this board capable of storing all the threads and such? They are easy to manage/cleaner looking/modifyable/free/free/and yeah.

I know I am good at complaining, but what is important is the ppl on here are awesome! That is why I keep coming back. Getting ppl to come to your board to chat all depends on the ppl already there.
