Gallery Glitches

It seems during some recent maintainance on the site as a whole, the Gallery reset a few options. For one, no one was able to comment or rate anything, and second, those who had permission to post their work suddenly lost the ability to do so. Rest assured we believe all options have been reset to their intended settings, however, if you do notice something in theGallery that normally would be there missing, please send me a PM.

Yahoo! Groups may place an Image Archive Here

It's something I feel enough people have asked for to warrant making it a possibility. ANY Yahoo! Group owner who wishes to post an image archive of their group is welcome to have theirs added!

The Yahoo! Groups archive will be displayed just like the Smartgroups archive, under a separate category, with a subcategory for each group. Like before, either permission from the group owner must be obtained, or proof of numerous attempts to contact the owner having been unanswered, at which time I would be willing to post them 'in good faith', meaning if later the owner appears and does not want it posted, it will be promptly removed from the Gallery.

This offer of an image archive extends to ANY community, not just Smartgroups or Yahoo! Groups. It is meant to act as an accessible image backup in case anything should happen to you group or community.

Activation Link Trouble

It has been brought to our attention that some of the links that you receive when attempting to register are directing you to error pages. On most of these occasions, even though you are getting an error, the activation is going through successfully.  Here is what you need to do to verify the activation has completed successfully:

1. After completing the registration, you will receive an email with a link. If you cannot click on the link, then you will need to copy and paste it manually into the address bar. It will look like
http://www.rachelshaven.com/index.php?
option=com_smf&Itemid=41&action=
activate;u=1111;code=activate

2. If you get an error message, try logging in to the site with the user name and password you set up originally.

3. If you still cannot log in, please send us a message.

We are working to repair this problem, and will update as soon as more information is available.

 

Welcome back Bimbo's Sanctuary!

After having had to deal with the work of a hacker taking the site down, the Bimbo's Sanctuary has returned to the web!

I would like to applaud the efforts of the Bimbo's Sanctuary staff in their efforts to bring the site back up so quickly! Hopefully, with what you find during the rebuilding process, we can all better protect our communities from people who choose to attack us!
