Title: Announce Your Arrival
Post by: Raydan on July 05, 2013, 04:12:32 pm
Hi Guys and Welcome to the brand spanking new CSC. Many thanks to Spanner for getting this site up so quickly, we as always are very grateful for all your work.

Post here to say you're here and if you've changed your user name if you wish.

Enjoy guys, this is different to our last site so the scroller is being fixed but we have a static scroller on the right hand side for now.

lodsie's here (with an abbreviated name to save bandwidth) ;D

Might be time for a change of avatar too!!!

Thanks very much (as always) to Spanner who gives so much of his valuable time.
He should know it's appreciated by the folk who have been around CSC a while, and should be acknowledged by all. It is sometimes a time consuming and thankless task.

Hopefully our outages are now a thing of the past.

Hi all, I'm here and haven't abbreviated anything ;)

Thanks for getting this up and running so quickly, I'd still suggest keeping it to just us until we're 100% sure everything is working the way we want it to be working.

Thanks Raydan.

I thought i was due for a change...but wanted to keep it somewhat on the same track. Look no further than Dave 'The shiny demon' Grohl. I had a few different ones of him that didn't show up as well. I think that one 'pops' a bit better.

Here were the other options....

Thanks Spanner - appreciate all your efforts on the old and new site.

Just curious, how can I get my avatar to show up bigger in the forums ? I tried unloading then reloading it, but it still seems to be the same size. According to my image viewer program (Preview on a Mac) the actual image I'm using is 310x232 pixels.

Try uploading it again. If you look at the properties of the current one in you profile it is 65x38 which makes sense because previously the limit was 65x65 and it would have been resized to keep the proportion right.

Spanner,

thanks for your help. I still can't get it to appear bigger. I have tried creating a copy of this image at 100 pixel width, I have tried converting the original 310x232 png to a jpg, but it still looks small. It's probably me, but I can't seem to get this right.

Sorry about the schoolboy humour of my new username (Benny Hill reference. Gold!). You may remember me from previous posts on the old site as "Dommo25" with the Vinnie Catoggio avatar.
There's another 'Dom'(inator) who pre-dates my joining, so time for a change.  Now, where were we? Oh yeah, those Essendon lying, cheating sons of b*tches  ...

By the way, many thanks to Spanner for his remarkable job at getting things up and going.

I didn't get my email so I asked for a re-send but it didn't turn up so I tried logging in anyway and it worked  :)  Hopefully that doesn't mean I'll be de-activated.....could be painful  :o

Thanks to all involved in getting the new site up and running - it looks great!

A quick bit of housekeeping.....
Some activation e-mails were finding their way to the spam/junk e-mail sections.
If you know of anyone who is having difficulty registering get them to check there.
If it's another problem let one of the mods know

I tried logging in and it said the username didn't exist, so I clicked on activation email which it said had been sent but nothing arrived, checked the junk/spam files as well, so I tried to register again and that seemed to go OK but again I didn't receive an email.
Eventually I tried logging in again using my old username and password and it worked, why it didn't the first time is a mystery.
The problem some people might have is that they can't login or register and can't post their problems either, they'll be stuck in limbo, maybe the admins need to provide a contact email for a week or two.
Glad to be here anyway, it's a nice site.

That was an issue with the Gmail account I set up for registration purposes. Google or Gmail admin decided the account was sending out too many emails and marked it as a spam account therefore blocking all outgoing emails, hence why some of you never received it.

I have since set up an alternative email server to get around the problem.

For those of you who haven't received a registration email, I have manually authorised your account so you should now be able to log on using your nominated Username and Password.

Sorry for the confusion, but Google are a pack of Nazis!
