Heads Up!
« on: May 11, 2009, 12:42:46 PM »
Based on my investigations into the virus thingy (to give it its technical name)...

I've decided to ban the uploading of avatars to our server...

From tomorrow, your avatart will have to be hosted elsewhere...

I've just changed mine and it is now on Photobucket but any of the free sites will do...

You can change the settings in your profile... anybody feel incapable unable to do so, let me know and I'll upload your avatart to my own photobucket account tomorrer like...

Might be an opportunity for a fresh look...  happy088

Oh, and as part of the upgrade process I've removed some of the site 'mods' including the advert hosting and some others wot I have forgotten about like...  redface:

Are the ones already there safe or am I about to go all 'red cross'?

Mine is uploaded from my desktop ~ what do we do about that?













Is this tinkering the problem do you think?

You have to copy it to imageshack or photobucket and link it from there - I can do it for you if you like...

The reason for this is a potential 'hack' that has been identified... It may be wot is causing our problems like... this will prevent it...
