Problems with Webshots?

“ok now I am peeved BIG TIME

anyone else having problems ????????”

“It worked fine for me yesterday when I uploaded some map info”

“no problems....”

“They recently changed their desktop program. I don't know if that would make a difference or not. I haven't uploaded anything for ages and I didn't update the desktop either I don't think.”

“Does anybody know to change which photo is used for your album thumbnail?

Thanks!”

“On your main page, in the upper right corner, there should be a link that says...change picture.

If not, go into edit for your profile...the link is there too.”

“they changed how to categorize your photo albums and i dont like it. i dont know how to properly cagegorize my albums anymore”

“Thanks mtnsteve. We're actually looking to change an album thumbnail, not our personal profile pic.”

“Duh on my part, LOL

OK thats even simpler, just change what ever picture you want for the album thumbnail to the first photo in the album.



I think.”

“That's what we thought we might need to do. Unforunately, that takes our pics out of order. Oh well...

Thanks for the help!”

“Make a duplicate picture just for the intro. You can can include a description of the rest of the album.

“Is it me or is Webshots down?

I'm betting it's down.

“looks down”

“The problem with Webshots is that it sucks. Flickr is what the pro's use.”

“Running very very slow for me.”

“OK, seems to be back up.”

“I was ordering photos, and while they loaded my Norton gave me a BIG warning that the site was a bad! What the heck? Anyone ever have problems ordering from webshots?

“bump”

“For us it's typically a problem with Norton, not the other website involved. Norton's going to the curb soon.”

“Received this email a little while ago (I've been uploading my JMT photos over the past few days):

Thank god Webshots is watching out for all of you. I know you all would have been horrified by the photo of Cameron's scraped knee. I fully expect the FBI guys from upstairs in my building to be paying me a visit any moment. I'm sorry! I'll never do that again! Please forgive me!!

“What was the picture?”

“A photo of BowlderSon's knee scrape he incurred on Day 4, just south of Muir Pass.”

“Well that would be a very violent image. Shame on you for trying to post that and corrupt the wholesomeness that is the internet.”

“wait, that is just stupid. i have some pretty gross pics of fellow backpackers blistrs (still my fav folder)”

“Ugh. That is soooo lame.”

“post it here and we will be the judges!”

“I hope they don't kick me off for this picture:

titled "Picking Rock Boogers"”

“Well, it looks like it is still there - maybe they realized it was silly to remove it:

”

“When did BowlderSon become a skin head?”

“If they deleted it, they must of assumed it was a breast? It looks more like the back of someone's shaved head than a knee, but you'd think the caption of "Scraped Knee" would clue them in.”

“Navi beat me to it by 21 seconds.”

“I have reported your picture here as well...

Expect a message from 'you know who' and immediate banishment if you continue...

'fool”

“Navi's faster than he looks!”

“You mean I might actually get banned after 6 years on this forum?!”

“umm we kinda all forgot to ask if he was ok...well is he?




carry on fools'”

“'wait, that is just stupid. i have some pretty gross pics of fellow backpackers blistrs (still my fav folder)”


you should have told me... I would have had some great shots for you after my SNP hike....

'fool”

“umm we kinda all forgot to ask if he was ok...well is he?

Here he is on 8/9, his 13th birthday, on top of Mt. Whitney. Looks OK to me....
