Long time no see

Good morning.  I'm glad to see you're up and running again.

I'd love to have a forum here if that's possible again.  The Crazed Onion Cafe.

If possible I'd like it public but can make hidden folders.  I find that easier than messing with a total private forum.

Thanks.:)

Welcome back. :)

Your forum is up and running.

If you have any questions, I'll be adding more information to the Information Center board. However, if you need help and the answer isn't on the board, don't hesitate to ask.

Many thanks Deanna.  Hopefully I'll remember how to do things...mostly.  :)

Well if you need help, just ask. I do have some information up on the board, but I haven't gotten to the forum owners section yet.

I'm in here a lot Monday to Friday. Weekends are generally family or wow time, but I do check in to see if anyone needs help.

Do you want your 5mb of member space set up? It's only FTP access, but you can build a member page or store images there for your use.

Your address would be http://www.beehiveforum.us/members/just1ally or http://www.members.beehiveforum.us/just1alley.

I'll check it out, but I don't think I'd use it...I use Photobucket. 

Thanks though..

You're welcome.

I used them too, until they lost a bunch of my images and I got an email about how sorry they were, but they couldn't be recovered. I'm not a paying customer there anymore. Luckily, most of them I have copies on a flash drive I use for image storage.

Now I store what I need on site for this site, including background images for the forum styles right in the forum styles' folders themselves. This way I know I'm not coming into the places and finding a bunch of that silly cat all over the place again.

I store my personal images and others on MyImgBox.com. It's one of ours too.  Makes things so much easier for me, and I know where they are and that they're safe. I do backups of the server twice a day. :)

I was expecting a big hit on the bandwidth with the addition of the images, but it all barely made a tick. Despite all the hits the various sites on the server take each day. It was a pleasant surprise. If I had known it would have such a small impact, I would have just put the stuff on the server from the start and saved myself a bunch of headaches.

Oh well. Live and learn. lol

In the meantime, PB is down for me, so maybe it wouldn't be such a bad idea to put a few on there.  When you get time to set it up..no hurry..

Not long ago I found a decent site only to find out you don't hotlink from the site.  You can only store the images.  And they want $9.99 per month...good luck to them on that.  It's called Jump Share..
