when clicking on lastpage for a thread, I am getting a 404 error code. It doesn´t do this when accessing the thread and then going to last page. Thought somebody would want to know. After the 404...

fyi, I was getting some strange messages about daniweb not being able to open a forum (it was a techtalk forum and random forum number) for about three days. It came up periodically but has not for...

You have to have posted 10 times to get the sig...

I have to admit that I haven´t gone over all the threads, as dlh so concientously did. However, the point of my post is that I got a lot out of reading the pinned threads when I joined and it helped...

Well, I don´t have a web page, so I thought I would throw in something to think about. But when i change them, the older ones go away. Pity...

I´ve noticed that when you change your sig that all the posts that you have posted change to the new signature. It would be nice if that didn´t happen, for a little variety in the posts.

I´ve...

And you will find this to be one of the best places to learn that I have ever seen. The people you will meet here are great! and eager to share their formidable knowledge.

The problem is that in real life (as opposed to school) mistakes can cost you much more than bad grades. Realizing that we have to learn from mistakes, a teacher should point out that it is better...

Thanks for the new font - much better...

OK, catweazle, I´ll go along with that...I still think that ad should cost them a lot more than the others. Exposure=$

One suggestion. On posts by those folks without a sig, there should be...

Opinion: Compulsory payment not advisable. Ad-free would be a good incentive. $5 per month is reasonable. Credit card would help get subscriptions.

Very good job! I´ll have to agree with scribbler that the add just above the quick reply is a nuisance. Reason being that you can´t see the previous post when writing the reply, so if you need to...

Hi Dani, yes, I´ve seen that but I´m not referring to internet marketing specifically or non-IT marketing.

I´m just interested in a subforum for IT-sales-related job offerings. We have...

It would be nice if there was a subforum for marketing types under water cooler. There are a lot of sales engineers that would be drawn here for that, and most of them are techies that changed to...

Many new members don't look at the dates on the threads. I've seen some threads revived that are years old. However, depending on the subject matter, it can lead to some interesting points.

I...

I think everything looks great! The one little thing I´ve been thinking about is the ¨other browser¨ content in the IE subforum. I´m not really sure how you would solve that but just food for...

I believe that the reason the eye is drawn to the post over the header and the sig is because the user info is the same as the post. I naturally look at the user name and avatar and the eye follows...

And I can´t disagree with that viewpoint! Having been born in the deep south, I saw it up close. Thank goodness it didn´t affect the way I feel about people - I turned out colorblind.

But it´s a...

I don´t see why anyone would feel as if they have to lie about their location. And why would someone from Iraq get less rep than anybody else?

What are you driving at, Acidburn?

Hi Scribbller, I didn't have a problem with the deletion, just wondered what happened. Thanks for the pointers. I will pass that on to the poster. I'm not connected and only saw his posts, so at...

So, is there an acceptable way to promote a new site? I guess what I'm asking is, how would you do it and how would you make it by the rules and not obnoxious?

That explains it, Dani. Thanks for the explanation. I did not notice the number of posts he had made since I don't normally pay attention to that.

Then the wording "no affiliate links are permitted anywhere throughout the site" are confusing...

Anyway, I guess I'm wrong about the post being deleted. But I swear I wasn't dreaming. I...

I don't like to be the one to bring this up but consider the following:


Note that no affiliate links are permitted anywhere throughout the site. In addition, most Internet Marketing forums...

I have to say no, the location could cause some bias. Dani is right that rep, title and all the rest already cause some tension in some posters. Having location an option is the best idea.

OK, we'll give that a try - looks like Dani has been tweaking, the menu disappeared - I think it's behind the ad?

The .bmp is attached, I think - there's nothing to tell me that I attached it...

I'm looking now at the site from my desktop and notebook, at the same page. The only difference in the two computers is that the notebook is running Firefox and the desktop IE, which I'm guessing...

Yep, that's what is happening and that's all right. Both nav and ad show fully on my desktop and the notebook shows all of the nav and chops off the right side of the ad. But you can still see 90%...

I'm replying from my notebook and it appears to work perfectly. Thanks, Dani.

This is only a big deal if you use a notebook with a restricted screen size to access the forums. But in that case, the advertisements are in the way. With a small screen the ad overlays the forum...
