Is there a way to ignore an entire thread? I use the "View Unread Posts" option when I'm on here but there's a few threads I have no desire to be a part of but unless I clear all topics, those ones I try to ignore remain at the top.

Just wondering if there's a way to go into a thread and mark it so that I don't ever see it in the forum topics.

Is there an easy way to add pictures like on Facebook. Where you can take a pic with your phone and add it to the thread?
Instead of having to go through photo bucket?
That would be awesome!

Whenever I try to add a picture with tapatalk it says " it was not possible to determine the dementions of the image". Gave up on the app because of this a while ago.

It tells you that when there are none that you have seen. So if you open your inbox and have 10 unread messages it notes that you have seen them but decided not to open them. So they're still unread but they're not 'new'.

I prefer it like this as I have about 120 unread messages clogging up my inbox but 0 'new messages' because I've seen them there.

Thanks for fixing the PMs so the whole PM message shows up in emails.

Well, no wonder you've got a problem if you're trying to post demented images.




Sorry, I can't help with that issue. I just wanted to say that.

:lol: oops. Haha you got me there. I meant dimensions. BTW I was reading a book about animals to my daughter and the two baby tigers in the book are named Kali and Durga. Coincidence or is that where your screen name came from?

well it tells me 0 even before I have seen them, maybe it's the Tapatalk plugin for chrome that is "seeing" them... will disable it and see...
thanks

Kali and Durga are two female manifestations of the Hindu god, Shiva. Parts of each of their mythologies are meaningful to me, so I use their names as a reminder of what they represent. What was the book you were reading?

The picture resizer doesn't seem to work. Added an external linked pic to my FS thread and it is getting cut off instead of resized with the little green box to pop it out and make it bigger. That's right, I want it to pop out and get bigger.....

This is all just a ploy for people to realize all the changes I've made to the site :)
