ISG Administrators,

Thank you for fixing the issue of picture thumbnails not being displayed in reports and the Photo Gallery. I noticed they began being displayed a day or two ago. Much appreciated!

So, why is the forum still blocking the codewords if our payment processor isn't accepting payments anymore?

I mean, I understood that the codewords were being blocked because that was a condition of the payment processor. But, now the payment processor isn't accepting any payments anymore, so is there still a reason to continue blocking all of the codewords?

If that is the case, then there are still holes that need to be plugged.

Yes, I know the glass is half empty. How we long for the good ole days!

I guess you are not aware of the purpose for the change.

Backpage got shut down and craigslist dropped all personal ads. USA is after these sites for sex trappic and other things. Many other boards have been shut down and owners brought up on charges over the past few years. I believe ISG relocated and hopefully is out of the reach of the authorities.

Be glad it functions. No need for them to broadcast their game plan.

Fair enough.

Seems to be a pointless change if it reduces effective functionality. A bit of communication with impacted paying forum members wouldn't go astray.

The fact they are up and running by making the change over is GREAT customer service. Kudos to ISG.

It's an ISG problem I'm afraid. I have sent a message to Admin's, but like you I don't expect a response. It would seem that our subscription fees are only for access, not customer service!

One work around I use is to use "Thread Tools"/ "Show Printable Version" and go to the last page. The pull down menu is 2 lines above the first post on a page.

Hi,

I wonder whether there is any option so that I can view the thread in ascending timeline, like, older posts appear first and newer posts appear last. The threads here appear to be arranged in just the opposite order. I hope I could explain myself. Thanks for this forum.

PNG format appears to generate thumbnail and picture. You can use an Internet site to trim and convert for free.

Based on the past history of this forum, I don't expect a response. But not ventured, nothing gained:

I've noticed that since ISG was moved to a new server, picture thumbnails aren't displaying in the Photo Gallery or in reports where mongers have included photos in their posts. Is this a problem with ISG or with the technology on my end?

Second test of png image format. It appears to generate a correct image in the thumbnail.

Png image format appears to generate a correct image in the thumbnail. A jpg image format leaves just a blank thumbnail.

I don't know what is going on but since I became a member of ISG my texts have been edited by someone who seemingly doesn't know proper English. After posting my texts they turn up in a mess, with bad spelling and unreadable phrases. One of my last posts the term C-cup (which is a bra size) turned into see-cup (whatever that is supposed to mean). Aldo 'I'd' (short for I would) oftentimes becomes 'I the. ' Another thing that happens is website addresses becoming unreadable, like 'omello. De' becomes 'omello. De'.

How is this possible? This has going on for quite some time, more than a year. I urge ISG to fix this problem. Don't change texts that are correct and make them look bad.

Dude,

That's the result of the auto spell checker, not a person editing your posts. Its always been that way.
