A Few Random Collecting and Net54 Tips

[Jobu]

Thanks for adding on Jeff and Doug. Anyone else?

I would like to add image upload failed and editing the title of a post following recent conversations with a few members.

Images:

This usually means that the file size of the image you tried to upload is too large. Many images are 2-3 MB and Net54 acts like it will upload these but the does not do it. (To see how large your image is, either right click on the icon and click "properties" to see the size or left click on it when it is in a folder and look at the bottom left of the folder, it will tell you the size.)

To make your image smaller you need to compress it, something that is done differently in every photo program. If you have a program you like, Google compress image and the name of the program and you will almost certainly find a step-by-step guide on how to accomplish this easy task.

Editing the title of a post:

This is useful in the BST so that you can mark an item as sold in the title to keep people from clicking on an item that is no longer available (and remember, there is no need to reply to a post to say that it is sold as that just bumps your now closed thread to the top above other active sale threads - if you edit the original post and title it doesn't get bumped to the top).

On the bottom right of your original post is a button that says "edit". If you click this you are able to edit the body of your post but not the title. To do that you need to then click "go advanced" and you are then able to edit away.

Is there a net54 setting that lets you go right to the thread # you last read? I know some forums have this built in.

In the list of threads, click on the little down arrow just to the left of the thread title, and that will open the thread at the post you last read.

Nice Mark, I didn't know that but I can say that this tip would have made my life a lot easier during the Mastro shill list thread!
