I change my avatar with a third party holder. We change the banners with a third party holder. It also takes weight off the database, by not storing them here.
But it's just an alternative.
That was why I was interested in storing images elsewhere. Even with my limited knowledge of using
these magical roadways of chatting, I knew the images I was posting contributed to a burden on the
database.
However, due to disciplines instilled long ago, I began to then fret on the 'weight' caused by my banners
on the hosting site!!
I am, apparently, a "Reputation Whore", as - when attempting to gain favor with other Members (BIAD, in this case), said attempt (to add a Positive value to his/his-her Reputation) was outright disallowed, with an Error message informing that my pursuits of favor had exceeded the bounds of decent conduct, and I would have to wait another day to resume said pursuits.
Maybe this is just a limitation for the Test Site, or a default in the 'BB' code...or, God knows what I'm up to and is quashing my inane lust for favor ( )... ... ...but, in any case, I wanted to let you know.
Snarl is having the same rating limit problem. I've looked into it but haven't found where it comes from. Yet. But I will...
It's in the to do list.
Sol.
Finally found it. There are no more rating limits and the rating is now unlimited.
Sol.
Talk about 'pronto'...!
Is there a bar and grill...and, if so, what about table or lap dances? (Actually, I'm cringing at some of those possibilities.)
Last drink I had was at the start of September...and, it was a concoction that advertised Mescal as the star.
I had tried Mescal only once, previously, while stationed in Idaho Falls (found it entirely disgusting, at the time)...when a roommate's birthday was celebrated with a bottle of the same...and, being the honoree, he swallowed the worm.........and immediately regurgitated the carcass. Nevertheless, I am actually in the mood for some spirits about now, after the stunningly efficient remedy that you (Sol) found, in addition to a certain giddiness in anticipation of tomorrow's Grand Opening.
Cheers to you all for the effort invested into this transition. :exclamation: :idea:
OH! One more thing. How do you/I insert your username/s when referring to...you? Doesn't seem to be automatic as on RN-3.
The trick is in what one emphasizes. We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves happy. The amount of work is the same.
