Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Non-registered users and viewing images...
Hi,
I've noticed that non-registered/not-logged-in users cannot view attached images. I understand that doing this is a way to save bandwidth, but also a way to drive potential buyers away. I know a few people (myself included) who just want to see what is in the ad, but registering and logging in is just too much hassle. Just something that you might want to keep in mind...
Best regards,

Well, since guests who are not registered cannot utilize the contact features of this site anyway, what would be the point of allowing them to view the images anyway? Just to look at the pretty pictures? I did this a while back to save on bandwidth when I was having server loading problems. That may be licked now with the new server, so if I think of it, I will probably re-enable it. But it would not be because of the reason you are stating.
Quite frankly, if someone is too lazy to register and login here, then likely they are going to be too lazy to follow up on a purchase as well. I mean, why should I cater to people like that? My perception of such an attitude is that they have no intention of participating in this site, just taking instead of giving a little back, so why should I really care what they think or do?

I posted this thread keeping in mind the "older" people who are in the hobby. I know quite a few people who are very computer illiterate and would like things to be a little friendlier. I also try to list my full contact information to make it easier on potential buyers.

If that's the way you look at it, cool, I guess...
