Yes thank you...BUT the PM's just stack on top of each other...there is no type of "inbox or sent" just all mixed up.
Will be a bear to keep track of when selling/buying in yardsale.
Unless I'm missing something here. ??????? Angie

I have your message, and as soon as something stops running, I'll be able to check your cwbullet account.

Please post a the address to that thread here. The developer is off now, but will be back tomorrow to help for those things. Unless I can figure it out for you tonight.

Also. Go to a rocket photo you like - here or elsewhere. Now right click copy and come back here and in your post, paste it.

Angie,
Here is the one post with the most pictures. I don't see any pics, just links...
OK, I'll try posting a pic...

 

[jd2cylman]

Weird. I can view my own picture...

Thanks for that link, that is exactly what I need to make sure the developer sees. I will probably be tomorrow evening before he gets to it. And I'll check it out more tomorrow and some tonight, too.

MASSIVE waste of screen space with the Facebook-ish scrunching of the actual messages to about 3/5 the page width, the remaining 2/5 on the right for a short list of new posts with nothing but wasted white space below that short list. This really screws with the usefulness of the forum for build threads and other visual presentations by reducing the width for photos. And causing extremely longer scrolling for all message threads.

I notice old threads with Youtube previews..... no longer preview. Just boring text links.

Also, where the ______ is my Lunar Module quadcopter thread? That better not be gone. Really. Here's the link, but it just loads the TRF home page.

bring back edit ...tried to add some things..Also the attachments are now very tiny or when clicked on huge. I was thinking of edit worked they might be resized?

Same thing with my old threads gone "with the wind" lol

Can I add more than one link? Tried to show link to one of my missing threads, but only room for one. I used to be able to just paste links [slide from desktop to post] no longer allows must use" link"
but if I add another the first one disappears.

@georgegassaway Please relax. The change may have been for about an hour or so. If you will take time to look through this thread, you will see I've already addressed how to get rid of the "waste of space".
And rather than just making a blanket statement about you tube previews, do you have a thread address where you are seeing that, so I can see what can be done?

As to your thread. I'll see what's up.

The Youtube videos...

[ksaves2]

on my computer screen one third of my page has ads too.

Funky wunky,
Since I paid, the right 1/3rd has a new posts listing and when I scroll down, it's bare space. I'd rather have the full screen back and larger type so I can see the posts better. This is not good. I want the right side of my posting space back please. I and others paid so we should be allowed to have all the space and not just some of it.

My umbrella is cut off. Never mind about jimzcatz. He's just belly aching cause most of us don't like change. BUT!!!! Is that a "LIKE" button I see?

And Krusty just liked my post. Apparently the "LIKE" button works too. BTW Krusty, I like your 'like'.

Kurt you and George need to look through this thread from the beginning. The 2nd post, I explained how to remove the new posts stuff on the right.

Looking thru my SpaceX Historic Landing thread, most recent page, none of the youtube previews are there as previews, just link HTML (which are non-clickable). This specific post there also has some broken images that used to be fine before. https://www.rocketryforum.com/threa...-recent-missions.120975/page-149#post-1787267

Also, the "First Man" (Neil Armstrong) trailer: https://www.rocketryforum.com/threads/first-man-movie-trailer-released-neil-armstrong.146364/

How old and where were the "missing threads"

Check the links allowed now. Check edit, I lengthened the time.

Just checked edit on that linked thread...not there.

Here is one of my missing threads https://www.rocketryforum.com/showt...2-stage-sounding-rocket&p=1592729#post1592729

It only allows me to add 1 link. I have several pages that I can't find of build threads.

Angie,
On my OpenRocket files thread, I'm currently unable to edit the posts (which were all done prior to the change). Any idea if that will be fixed?

https://www.rocketryforum.com/threads/kteshs-openrocket-files.123564/

Also, all of the flickr images seem to be working. I dunno about the images that were posted as attachments.

[EDIT]
I'm seeing some attached images, but they're HUGE... The .ork files themselves appear to be intact.

 

[blackjack2564]

Try going to High Power and under "sticky" at top. click on my "How to build a DarkStar " it's "Gone with the Wind"

Way to mark posts in a thread as read, like before under tools

 

[cerving]

LOTS more ads... hate it. It's especially unnerving because I pay them every month...

Please check out post 18 and 49 - they will help you get rid of that.

As to the avatars... I think they changed the resolution. Mine looks all fuzzy, and when I went to the spot to change it, it states that your pic MUST have a resolution of at LEAST 200X200 pixels. IIRC, you were only allowed so many KB's or something like it ish before...

Please try to edit now. And take a look at the size of full images now.

Images are up to 5mg now. So better resolution on images.

Yes, it goes to what you show, BUT click on any number/subheading...the content is missing. NOTHING THERE.

BUT my old threads are now showing..thankie!

@blackjack2564 The numbered items were hyper links? Right? Did they go off site or to a thread here? And if a thread on site, what forum was it in?
