But, you were the first 2 to offer help on this in weeks

Po:.....you've either been hangin' out too much with the troll or overly partaking of that Genuine Southern Headbuster you folks have a fancy for. If you had posted your own thread on this weeks ago, you would have had it fixed weeks ago. It's really a rather simple concept..........

 

 

I'm bustin' your balls...  

ZA Privacy animation you figured out. The smilies are a ZA site setting (images.stardock.com) or you have a another security app blocking it. 

 

I keep writing about not being able to upload a frivolous avetar

Fairyy~....I have tried to upload my first avatar many dozens of times periodically over the last 4 weeks...with no success....I have followed your 'squeaks' and also Wreckless Eric's comments hoping for a solution but no luck until I just followed KiloKrash's link and signed in there (didn't know you could do that!)....uploaded avatar and voila....in a flash...success......thanks to you for persisting and big thanks to KiloKrash for the solution.......

I guess they don't want anyone to change their avatars...just when I was thinking of doing so. Bah! Had this great pirate ship and..... 

Fairyy~, I had the same problem. I finally managed to upload my icons when I uploaded from the Stardock site. Click the link, then sign in and try to upload your images that way. https://forums.stardock.com Link

Kilo- I cant believe how simple that was ..I didnt understand what you meant because I've never even been to Stardock site. Thankyou for a quick solution to an irritating problem.
Next time I will read more carefully. 

All the bugs are starting to get to me. For weeks, this is what I get when I go to the site...






I have to refresh the page about 3 or 4 times, sometimes more, to get a normal page. I can't sign on when it is doing this. Then, when I finally do sign on, I have to sign on to every page I go to in the site. Usually, the sign on will not work and I just give up and try a few hours later, when, for some unknown reason, everything seems fine again.




I am currently posting this through Stardock Central, because when this crap happens, it's the only way I can get on here. IE and FF will not work. This is the only site that does this. I have tried clearing my cache, setting ZA to accept all WC, Stardock sites, shutting ZA off, shutting NoScript off (which is set to allow all WC and Stradock sites to begin with) I have or am experiencing just about every bug I come across in the forums (Changing avatars, uploads, forum posts only half posting, etc)

These things seem to come and go, but lately, come and stay. When one thing gets fixed, something else goes out. Forum links won't post right, I fixed the problem with not seeing animations in the forums and the smilies go out again.


I did email support a week or so ago, but never heard back.


Imma stressin'. I know you all are busy, and I can't begin to imagine how much work all these changes and stuff take, but are we getting close to being free from all of these little irritants?

Po' i see you have the FF extension NoScript installed. you must make sure you allow Wincustomize.com and startdock.com to run scripts. this may help

To be safe, (haven't tested it yet) would be to try using your email address in the username form field instead of your nickname as perhaps the single quote is messing with the login somehow. Just a thought.

I've followed KiloKrash's advice regarding avatars. Let's hope
