I guess it s easy if you know how to use it Mortiboy...Image shack usually only takes less that a minute to do the whole thing with a decent connection of course, some photos might take a little longer if they are very large though.

Could try the old Isara pix like before...

Or use " Upload attachment" just under the image shack section....

Image shack Example.....15 seconds to do...

Upload attachmant option Example same time...

I have adapted to the new board style with no worries. I just have 2 questions. I use Firefox with a Google page for all my internet stuff and since the new page style I have to log on every time. Even though I tick the box to log on automatically. Is this the same with every one else? I log on from Australia by the way.
It's not a problem, it's just that I miss having the ability to log on automatically. Oh and when I put the first letter in my user name slot I have my user name and password saved so it's easy, just could be easier.

The second question is, under the exchange rates on the front page, there is a google add for a Philipino dating site. This is the only part of this page that has nothing to do with Thailand. Not a criticism, just an observation. I would have thought that a Thailand dating site would be more at home on this page. :confused:

i'm having all sorts of probs at the moment. Having to sign in at least 3 or 4 times a session is only one of them.
I can have been using the net quite happily for 3 or 4 hours, with the system working quite quickly, then, as soon as I click on the Udon map link, I get a message like Illusion cannot link to site Udonmap etc;etc; and I get booted off the net. Then when I log on again, my computer runs at about 20% of the speed it ran before.
This has been going on for several months now, it's only the Udonmap site that gives me the problem.

No Gozzo, you're not alone. I'm having trouble understanding why there is a box to check if you 'want to be logged-in automatically'?? I check my email, notice there are a few emails from udonmap.com indicating that there has been an addition to a forum board that I've been monitoring, click on the URL link in the email, go to the next email and click on the URL link, etc. Then go to Firefox to 'view' the various links only to get the message that I need to log-in on each one of them. There should be an easier way. Also I cannot find a place to log-in on the home page any longer?? :-({|=

The auto log on box no work for me either.....But not concerned as as soon as i put a 'b' in the username box when on FF it predicts what i want and just click the predictive text and then password comes up auto...

And statto have you tried clearing out your cookies always works for me when i get same/similar trouble as your getting now and again(only on this site though.. :( ) .

Try deleting all board cookies and try again. There is a link at the bottom of the forum for deleting cookies. You may find it helps with your login problem.

Mmm! I'm not too sure about that one. I can't see anything on this site that would cause you to loose your connection and slow your computer down. I'll look into it for you but doubt it's anything to do with the server or site, unless of course all users are having the same problem.

So let me get this straight, you log on to udonmap and are signed out 3 or 4 times, then eventually you get booted off the internet and your computer speed is reduced by 80%. :confused:

Have you tried to access udonmap on any other computers, if so do you get the same problems?

Yes this is a problem which I'm currently looking into. Session information is being remember but for some reason the board is automatically logging users out when leaving the site. I agree it is annoying having to sign in each time, but hopefully I'll have this fix a.s.a.p.

This is a dynamic advert code with content provided by Google. Google adverts usually displays adverts relevant to page content, so if Google picks up a 'dating' keyword in a members post, then Google will display adverts related to dating, in this case Filipino dating. It's difficult to avoid unless you list all individual sites that you don't want Google to display via the admin panel, but this can be time consuming since the adverts change often.

Thanks for the help Lee. I'm not sure what cookies are (some type of american buscuit I thought ..... wrong again!)
I have done as you suggested and it took best part of 60 secs to delete them, so I don't know how many were there, but my guess was "Quite a few".

A couple of weeks ago, my "favorites" list that used to appear on the left hand side of the page suddenly vanished, leaving a white space, and me having to click on the favorites icon at the top of the screen to see them.
The first thing I noticed after deleting the "cookies" was the miraculous re-appearance of my favorites list.
2 birds with one stone as they say !! Thanks again for your help
