Test the (hopefully) new website!

I'm not sure Adi but maybe your username is too short? Perhaps Souza can help you.

I thought the same but then I saw that bec has signed up and Jos and I think so did RK ....so I should be able to use Adi.

Oh right, duh. Not sure why it's not working for you then since you said you just typed in Adi.

Yeh - me either.  I will leave it for a few hours and try again later  'cause at the moment all I am doing is swearing at my computer now  :LolLolLolLol:

[Adi]

Ok......think I got it sorted...had to put a different name in that box and then I enter Adi as the username when i set up the profile...just awaiting my confirmation email.   :icon_e_biggrin:

[suspicious mind]

ok i am having the profile address problem too. :icon_e_confused: i even tried just adding 2 at the end ( figured it wouldn't matter) but it still didn't work. adi what do you mean you put another name in there?

It wasn't accepting Adi as it was too short and when I tried ~Adi~ or any other combination it said I needed to use alphanumeric so. So I put AllyB in the box and it accepted it - then it goes through to another page to set up your profile where you can enter a Username so I put Adi there.

I hope I am making sense? lol

keep trying.....it took me a while to figure it out.

Same for me Adi.....I used a few more letters and then could nominate my username that I have had here for 3 years.

Also....anyone.....got any advice on how I go about uploading a cover image....step by step.....for the technically challenged?

[MJonmind]

Souza, can you tell us exactly when the cut-off for this forum is happening? Like tomorrow, next week? Thanks!

Hi all, well I'm in, and will need to get used to it once it is up and running. One comment is that in my email, I am told to click on the weblink, but weblink doesn't go through with point and click, need to copy and paste in a new tab--minor inconveniences...

Go to your profile. You will see a blank box where your cover image should be. In the upper right corner of that box you see a button "change cover image". Click on that and a window will open where you can select a pic from your pc/laptop. Choose the pic you´d like to upload and then safe. However you need to make sure that the image has the right size. The system will tell you if it hasn´t got the right size and what the right size is. You might have to resize it then.

I've just sent you a message via the Contact Us button on the new website.  Please disregard because I have finally managed to re-register.   It's been a long day, it's bl**dy hot and I think my brain was slightly frazzled (and I've only just found this thread after wondering where the website had vanished to).  Has the yardarm passed whatever it has to yet - me thinks a glass of cold white wine is needed

Goodbye old forum...

Hello people of the future who will look on it when it's all said and done and beyond.
