Suggestions for Team-BHP from Team-BHPians

Rtech · 18th August 2007, 10:50

As mentioned earlier, the forum will be going through a dramatic change soon and an entirely new look will be launched on our anniversary in Feb 2008. So it doesn't make sense to develop a new skin for a few months.

Rtech:No probs.... i have kept my fingers cross untill Feb 2008

What? We got to wait that long?

I was made to believe it was just around the corner.

Actually Rtech,

Sohail is just asking for an implementation of another skin, which GTO said he had someone working on a few pages back.

Lets see what GTO says the progress is.

While composing longer threads, it would be helpful if we have the "save as draft" option

Yup I too felt it is needed.

Navigating through categorized sub-sections is way easier than navigating through pages and pages of threads!
We have only expanded to sub-sections where we felt they were absolutely neccessary and encouraged the growth of information for all.

It has been mentioned before a few pages back.

See GTO's reply in post number 627, a few posts after Manaa's initial request.

Why do I keep getting subscribed to many of the threads I reply to and then they keep appearing in my Hotmail every time. How do I get rid of that?

benbsb29 · 20th August 2007, 13:22

Sujay, a fix to that has been mentioned in the Shifting Gears section.
Go to Control panel, and unsubscribe, and dont forget to click the Save button at the bottom.

GTO quite a few of us face problems with imageshack while uploading pics.

Imageshack comes up with porn ad's while uploading pic's and actually hinders uploading pics from office.

Was googling and found this site( www.allyoucanupload.webshots.com ) to be real fast and very user friendly.
No hassles of pop-up ad's and works like charm.

Why not add up this to "How to upload pictures on t-bhp " under the Announcements section ? Just my suggestion.

Sam Kapasi · 20th August 2007, 17:15

Imageshack has porn ads????? And I don't know!! lol

No seriously rjstyles, Imageshack is 100% porn-free. Not only is it porn free, Imageshack does not permit the upload of any nude pictures etc.

There are quite a few image hosting sites. I'm sure the one you've listed is good too.

No porn ads. but most office firewalls block imageshack saying adult/mature content or pornography.

Most of the pics I cant see from office as they are blocked.

rjstyles69 · 20th August 2007, 19:05

People I wish I could put up a screen shot here. Yes Sam it does have pop-up ad's occasionally with porn.

I was trying to upload pics today and heck it just popped up. I sure will take a screenshot the next time I find it and send it to you Sam.

edit : Also the website I listed allows a user to upload 10 pics in a single shot.

I can assure you this has nothing to do with imageshack!
I would scan my computer for adware if i was you.

Also, the link you provided doesnt seem to work ?!?
