Haha, a chuckle at this message:
An Error Has Occurred You may only modify a member's karma once each hour. You will be able to exalt or smite again at (one hour later).

What's an invisible user, BM? There's one on-line right now, which greatly excites me.

It's a registered user who has chosen to remain invisible. I.e. his name won't appear on the list of on-line users.
Nothing very exciting, really.

Ooh - I think that might have been me. I am an invisible user. Nice to know someone finds me exciting.

It's all Greek to me.
Can someone tell me where or how to find those moving piccies that everyone's using for their avatars, please? Me want.
And how do you get karma? And what's this 'exalt / smite' thingy, and how does it work?

You have to find a site on the net where one is downloaded and copy-paste the address somewhere in your profile. People give you karma if you are nice? Exalt and smite thing you can give to other people, who are nice (like me) or nasty (like the others) ;D

Help, again. Found an avatar I like, but it's 9, 050 pixels, or similar, and I can't paste the address. Assume it fits in the 100 x 100 requirement, and assume I just paste the address in that box that says to?
We need more people on this b*o*a*r*d (as it's spelled on the angry board. Been edited over there - again. Wonder if I'll be blacklisted now). How much is a bus ad, BM? Er - a taxi ad? Um ... a one-off bus stop ad? A small square in the 'wanteds'?
sigh. So I'll look for you dressed as a billboard man on the corner of Orchard, then, shall I, BM?

Assume it fits in the 100 x 100 requirement, and assume I just paste the address in that box that says to? What? Someone some time ago posted a link (on this thread) of a site where you can upload images. My guess is that if the avatar is too large, you can download it, reduce in size on your computer, upload on that site (I might have added it on the first post of this thread) and paste the address as Madmax said. We need more people on this b*o*a*r*d (as it's spelled on the angry board. Been edited over there - again. Wonder if I'll be blacklisted now). How much is a bus ad, BM? Er - a taxi ad? Um ... a one-off bus stop ad? A small square in the 'wanteds'? Indeed we need more people. There was a discussion some time ago (when the board was launched) on how to advertise it, but then nobody did anything. As I made it clear when I opened the site, this site is for people to use. I don't make any money, or have any benefit, so I expect the users to participate in its success (advertising, adding useful links, writing a short essay about housing, maids, electronics, transport and whatever in Singapore, etc.). But nobody was very interested. (Everybody just wants to be fed, nobody wants to cook. ) sigh. So I'll look for you dressed as a billboard man on the corner of Orchard, then, shall I, BM? What

Well, I'm obviously not very tech-savy, especially not at this time of the night - will have another go at avatars sometime else...
Since there's no budget for advertising this board, you'll have to paint up a couple of boards to wear front and back, and stand on street corners advertising ;D or paint up a single sign and stick it on a pole, so passers by can read it.

Hi, I'll take it from the top. What happens is: I go in to modify my profile and add an avatar URL, when I click save/update the program returns to the top where an error message has appeared. It says: You can't use He in your display name. The strange thing is that I haven't done any change to my display name, it's exactly the same as always. What I want is to be able to modify my profile, and keep my display name... Cause as it is now, all changes in my profile are blocked by the error message. I hope you have some kind of solution, thanks in advance.

They tend to eat their own as the saying goes. If they don't get enough newbies to chew up and spit out they start chewing on their own until they leave. It's almost like the Angry Board except you have to register to get flamed.

Hi, BM - what's happened to the calendar? The last posting I see on my screen is September 2006; whereas the one before that is August 2007, then May 2006, and back to 2007 again. Or is it just me?

Euh? What happened? I don't know. But sure there are few posters left! What a shame. It started quite well, but I guess not well enough. Not enough posters to make any read debate going. Oh well, at least I tried...
