• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Do you need to be a paid member to post pictures on ads?

Only registered members can view attached images; so until you are logged in, you won't be able to view them.
 
I think that makes sense. So if someone else is logged in but I am not, they can still see the pictures? Because when I am logged in I don't see the pictures like other ads on the side in the classifieds list. So I was just wondering if I was doing something wrong.
 
I just looked at a couple of your ads...the preview images are of the first attached image in the ad. When you use IMG tags to post images from your gallery, there is nothing for the system to pick up - that is why those images aren't there...but a viewer that opens the ad will see them.
 
The advantage of posting images in your gallery, and using the IMG tags is that they will be viewable to visitors (without requiring them to be logged in). The disadvantage is that there is no preview image, so people might not even know there is a picture in the ad...and many people just skip ads without pictures.
