• 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....

I've been having issues with accessing the classified control panel and attaching images. Out of the last 6-7 times I've tried to access the CCP, only a couple times would it access the CCP and normally it will just default to the fauna homepage instead. I have to enter a thread and then access the CCP. This is happening on both my Apple cell and windows laptop.

More concerning, for the last several months (maybe longer), my phone will only allow me to upload one image per thread. If I try uploading a second, it will replace the first image. I thought this was only on my cell and lived with it, but recently, I've started posting ads and need multiple images and I am experiencing the same problem on my laptop.

Any advice, solutions or similar problems?
 
Ok, may have jumped the gun. I believe my error was both files had to be present on the second device in order to add an additional photo. Once I saved the both photos to my laptop and uploaded at the same time, both were uploaded. When I try to add one, edit and then add another, it will just replace the first.

However, there is no solution for the iPhone. It one upload per post and that's it. Any additional upload will just replace the first every time.

Sorry, but I do not use handheld mobile devices to access the internet, and quite likely I never will. I've got enough problems with my aging vision without pushing myself rapidly towards complete blindness staring at a dinky screen all day long to do the stuff I need to do on these sites. Heck I have a 26 or 27 inch screen now and am thinking of looking around for a larger one. I hate to do anything on the net even with my smaller laptop screen.

So the point is, that if I can test new code put into this site to make it more compatible with handheld devices, then I'm not going to be using that code. I'm sure the newer versions of vBulletin are likely more compatible with handheld devices, but the word on the street is that after Internet Brands took over Jelsoft, the product went down the toilet. Having the original developers jump ship there certainly couldn't have helped. So a suitable migration path for this site is problematic.

Besides, I'm having enough problems keeping this site running without introducing even more variables to have to deal with.
