Brent,

At this time I am not getting any e-mail notifications and I just went and looked to see if I got any from this thread and two that have been posted to in the Loune. Then I tried sending myself a PM which normally sends a notification to me and I have gotten nothing yet. I believe that Perry also said he wasn't getting them. I have checked all 0f my filters and blocks. Mine quit late yesterday evening.

Brent,

I am still not getting any e-mail notifications at all. I get the PMs ok but no notification of them either.

Thanks,

Ron

I, on the other hand, still get all the e-mail notifications.

Must be all the electrons ganging up against Ron. Or Bill Gates hates Ron?

Ron61 · #6 (**permalink**) 03-20-2008, 07:21 AM

I must be the only one not getting the notifications as no one else has said anything about not getting them. Strange how mine just stopped suddenly. Guess the computer God's don't like me.

Brent,

I have tried uploading new pics for the GT, the process goes through as normal but, the pics do not upload.......may be I am using too large of a format, the one picture I have here at the office is 5M+.

Probably operator error.....let me know.

errr... w-a-y too big. 80k to 100k is more than adequate for web use...800x600 or 1024x768.

Upwards to 200k will work...you must be trying to upload a raw hi-res image right out of the camera, at 5000k! Totally unneccesary to have the image that big.

Can you adjust? ..or just use the Photo Resizing tool.

Thanks Ron,

I assumed that the issue was me....I am going to take a whole series of pictures of the new car, garage etc. in low res format and get them on the site. you are right the pic I have here was directly out of my wifes camera.

The GT is a lot of fun and I want to share........

Ok, I received 1 (one), e-mail notification from here that someone had posted in a thread I am in yesterday but not another since and none for the week or so prior to that. But the fact that one got through would seem to rule out my ISP having blocked them. Also none for the threads that I am in that have been posted to today or for the PM that I had.

Ron...do you want to try an experiment?

Pick up another e-mail account off of one of the freebies. (hotmail or gmail)

Put that in your profile for a week and see if it makes a difference

Ron61 · #12 (**permalink**) 03-26-2008, 01:33 PM

Ron,

I had been wondering about that but if I do that will it interfere with my regular e-mail? What I mean is can I have two separate e-mail programs working at the same time. I can make sub-accounts and assign throw away names to them that end with @Yahoo.com instead of the @sbcglobal.net and I have used them in the past to end messages to people that I don't want to keep hearing from. Once our business is over I just delete those addresses and suspend the sub-account until I need it again. Yahoo is in the middle of upgrading the e-mail program which means it won't work right for a few months once they turn the new improved version up.
I am more than willing to try this if I can do it correctly and it won't interfere with my regular e-mail program. Please let me know if I can do this and not have to delete my regular e-mail program as I have that address all over the darn country.

Ron

Bill Gates must hate you. You using Win XP Pro?

Why not try my old Win95 machine and a dial up modem.

I'll send you a few jokes via e-mail in a couple of minutes ... let me know if you get them.

Don't overthink this..it is a very simple experiment.

Just sign up for a web-based Non-yahoo email, like Hotmail or Gmail.
Nothing is done to your computer...you check this email on the corresponding website... you do not have to configure an e-mail client.

All you have to do is change the e-mail address in YOUR profile on CC and see if you start getting notifications from CC to the new address.

I'd still like to have the drop down tool bar on every page back so I can go directly to another forum without backing back to home page each time.

A single click on it will bring you to the list of Forums, just like the ol' drop-down.

I can't figure out how to get rid of this message under the latest poll button:
The block type Latest Poll doesn't seem to exist. Please check your includes/blocks/poll script.

Not your problem... it is a glitch in the Home Portal page...it is not linking to the poll module.

It is on the "fix-it" list, but not high up on the list.
