Post by: cwuwildcat on February 19, 2012, 07:46:10 PM: What are the symptoms? Error messages, hard stops, what are you clicking on, type of browser, OS, etc...

Please try to resubmit your message." This happens when replying to or starting a new topic. I am logged in to the server and running Microsoft Windows 7 with IE 9.

Or, try clearing your cache. If you don't know how to do that, just Google it. Try something like: clear cache windows 7

When you log in, theres a box to the right of your userid and password. It sets the amount of time you remain logged in. I'm guessing you had it set to one hour, and had been logged in more than 60 minutes before you submitted your post. Try logging out, log back in and change that to "forever".

Post by: TheKid#10 on February 19, 2012, 10:15:17 PM: Another strange thing is on the home login page when I try to login it says invalid password and gives me another login area to try again on that same page. Which I do with the same password and then it logs me in ?

Post by: TheKid#10 on February 20, 2012, 09:18:13 AM: No go. Must be a setting that was changed in my desktop. Some programs or add-ons do that crap to your machine without you knowing and it's hard to track down what got changed. I'll keep looking. Thanks.

Post by: bobcat on February 21, 2012, 07:50:34 PM: Looks like you've got the right steps listed there. The only thing you might want to do is make sure your photos have been sized down to a small enough size. I usually go 800x600.

I don't understand your first sentence.

You should be able to post from your phone, I post from my phone and know many others that do too.
