Two Queries I Need Help With Please

Hi all

Query 1. On My Page (profile) what is the "Squirrel's Voice" section for as all mine seems to do is post something on the lines of "I haven't updated yet" in the talk bubble?

Query 2. I have my own domain name and so can post photos directly from there to forums. With this forum, do I need to resize the photos first (and if so, to what size) or does the site automatically resize them down to fit the forum page?

Thanks, Squirrel

The necessity of bird-watching is a really good reason for avoiding all forms of housework.

The dust will still be there tomorrow - the birds may not be!

  • Hi Squirrel, I shall be pleased to see the replies you receive to your first question as I have been wondering about that too. I seem to have managed to upload some photos but still have a few questions about the various galleries. One other thing "the friends list" does one just add a persons name or do you have to have permission from the person you would like to add?

    Hope to hear from you soon, Sacha.

    Bye for now

  • That's a good point - I meant to ask about the Friends List myself. Hopefully some kind soul will tell us when they read your reply.

  • Hi Squirrel,

    Have managed to up load some photos. I do hope that they won't bore people.

    What excellent photos - can't see those boring people at all.

    Hi Squirrel (nice photo, by the way)

    1. You can change 'your voice' by clicking on the 'Update' link on the right-hand side. Then you can change the default text.

    2. No, you don't need to resize your pics. The forum will make them fit the space. But if you're uploading them from your computer, it might be a good idea to reduce the filesize so that you don't have to wait so long.

    Of course, if you're linking to them, that won't be a problem.

    Hope that helps!

  • Hi Katie

    Thanks for all that info - I have saved this to my rapidly burgeoning Favourites file so I can refer to it as I try an upload.
