For example, where is this “Memberslist”?
1. Go to Memberslist

[Royal]

MGLR, You have to login first.  Then “Memberlist” becomes an option at the top right of the page.  

[Paul Mossberg]

As far as photos in old posts, they do not appear beucase when the software was upgraded, the photo gallery had to move to a new address.

 

The pictures must still be in the gallery. But the links no longer work.

 

We should be able to get the gallery up and usable, but I don’t know how to fix the old picture links without editign each post.

That could be true but it also could be true that the photos were removed. I ran up against storage limits a few months back and culled out a bunch of photos to make room for new. 

[john barry]

well
I know this will go over like a lead  balloon   but we could have facebook page
with individual photo albums.

It could be up immediately.

Just  a suggestion only 

[Derek]

That could work but I don’t know how we could all add photos without everyone being an admin for that page? Other than that it would be easy to use though.

[Bill Gould]

Except that some of us tried Facebook, decided it was a huge waste of time, and deactivated our accounts years ago.

Has anybody tried Flickr?  

It’s just a photo sharing service so it doesn’t have the additional distractions of Facebook.  There’s enough space that we could use the free service (although the pro level is only $50 a year) and it could be set up with different albums for each member.  The only issue would be that we would all have to share access to the same account, the same as with Facebook.  The other option is that each member would get his own Flickr page and then we would create a Group to which we could post our albums.

Just an idea.

I’ve taken the liberty of creating a Flickr group for the Forum.  You can see it here: https://www.flickr.com/groups/2773625@N23/.  Please, let me know if this is the way the group wants to go.

Looks like it would work for me.. Any new idea will always take some effort to adjust to. Thank you for taking the initiative.

[Paul Mossberg]

Thanks for the flickr group!

But ultimately, I’d really like to see the gallery here fixed.

 

Problem began when FrankieD had to upgrade the forum software. It required a new URL, and we “lost” the connection to the gallery.

I dont’t have tthe skills to manage the html code here. Stephen Houser offered to work on the site. The challenge has been getting him access to the source code. Still workign on that.

 works for me    waiting on your approval   thxz Vicenç

[Vicenç Feliú]

Paul, Wish I could help you with the html but that is beyond my level of expertise.  

John, I approved your request for the Flickr group and promoted you to Admin.  Now you can approve and promote other members as well.

I agree with Paul that the most elegant solution would be to have a working gallery on the Forum platform but in the meantime we can use the Flickr group as a stop gap for those that want to do that.

Best,

V.

Hi Spike,

If you don’t already have a Flickr account, you will have to create one.  From your Flickr account, go to the group’s page and request to join.  Once you do that, either John or I can accept your request and you will be in.

Continuing to work on this. We have the gallery back!

Here is the address (and link) to view the photo gallery:

https://tdreplica.com/gallery/browse.asp

The folders are all numbers and not our usernames.

Here is how you find out a user’s number:

  1. Go to Members list

  2. Search the members username or narrow by the first letter

  3. Put you mouse pointer on the username (don’t click)

  4. Look at the bottom left corner of your browser, you will see a
full url link.
      At the end of the string you will see ?PF=  and a
number.
      The number after the = is the user’s number.

Once you find your number by following Paul’s instructions, put that number in your signature area so it comes up every time you post. That will help everyone find your photos.

Thanks Paul.

[Derek]

Awesome, thanks Paul!

So now when we post photos in a topic or reply do they automatically go to the gallery too?

[Paul Mossberg]

Derek….yes, they automatically go into your folder in the gallery.

And there you go!

Gallery is alive and well.

And screennames are shown.

The sort order is still by the member number. We are working on that.

But still, this is major progress!
