Electric Guitars

... on this version of the forum. Before, I had to post to Facebook and copy the image address or ftp to my website and then post the image link. This is much cleaner and will save all of us a bit of time. Also, the forum seems to be running at an acceptible speed. Good work mods.

iPad support is the only downside that I'm finding so far, but hopefully, someone will put together an app that allows us to post media rather than just text.

For those jumping ship, what a bunch of **bleep**. Just like last time. The whiners have ulterior motives (e.g., Mark Wein) to make money by luring and exploiting HC members. But, hey, it's almost a free country still and if that's how you do business, best wishes. Just remember, karma can be a real **bleep**.

Bleeping? Honestly, a well placed **bleep** can do wonders from time to time, but I'll survive.

Oh, almost forgot. For those of you who have lost track of or closed the email account that you used when you originally signed up for HC--and now cannot reset your password--whose fault is that? You sound like my undergraduate students who have millions of excuses about why they didn't get an important assignment or announcement about a class that they are taking.

Part of living in the information age is managing your online life. You can't just sign up for something and then forget about the email account and password that you used for the internet service. You have to keep track of that stuff or face the consequences. And in this instance, the consequences are that you have to sign up again and become a noob all over again. BFD. Get over it.

nothing you wrote does away with the fact the this site SUCKS now in terms of layout and funtionality.

I too like being able to post photos directly... it's way faster, and much more convenient.  Speaking of which :

I agree with most of being said here.  Hopefully the community will be happy with what comes out of the switchover.  I am coping with the beta version as best as I can.  Surely they can make it look better.  It does work better, and posting pics off my local drive is a pretty cool feature.

Lookee at this Tru Oil goodness... mMMmmmm

[steve_man]

pretty cool...will have to try it. I agree, the ship-jumpers either need to go...or start posting about guitars. Time for the mods to bring out the Banhammer....

incorrect

they'll fix it for you if you contact them

happened to me... i simply no longer have access to the email address i signed up with... it's been 7 years, i've moved multiple times etc... i actually did sort it with them before but for some reason it didn't recognise the new adress this time around

regardless, it can be sorted

looks great

[Steadfastly]

Wow, it really works. But actually the last forum could do it too. It just wasn't set up properly. GuitarsCanada.com had the same softward and instant upload (copy/paste) is done there all the time.

I'm not jumping ship - but am considerably less than pleased with the layout of the new forum.

for the record... i agree with this completely... i have no idea why Mark Wein has been constantly allowed to spam his forum at harmony central... to me, he's acted like a vulture... every time something goes wrong he's in there pushing his own forum... all done in a light hearted way, but his intentions have been clear from the start

and then he wanted money to fund the promotion of his album.... you've gotta be kidding me

the guy has shown absolutely no class imo

I agree totally.  That was spoken just like Steve Buscemi.  BTW when are you bringing him back as your avatar?  I used to crack up every time I saw it years ago.

[Patuney]

Ill try it now, although, if anyone can mess this new-fangled forum, I can.(reverse Midas touch)

How do you post any pics from any site or your computer? I don't see any image posting options at all. ???

There's a good explanation in another thread: HERE

[Elias Graves]

Thanks, but I'm not getting the text editor box anywhere. No icons for quoting or inserting images.

:mad:

[axegrinder]

That's weird.  Do you have the three tabs: Rich Text, HTML, and Preview?  I can't imagine why yours would look different unless you're on the mobile site.  There's a lot of tech saavy people about who could probably help.  I am NOT one of those people. :lol:

[Elias Graves]

I'm using an iPhone right now but I turned off the mobile version. I'm looking at the full site.

I can't post it, but here's a link to what I get with the reply button.
