Try again tomorrow. There is a two-week probation period for new guests. You should have access to those features tomorrow. Or you can purchase a membership; there is no probation period for paid members.

Good evening. When i add pictures via attachments they only show up and thumbnails. Is there a way to resize pictures via code or is this a function of paid memberships? I don't think I have seen anyone post thumbnails but myself and I haven't been able to figure out how to resolve.

Thanks,
Will S.

When you add as an attachment they default to a thumbnail, when you click on them they should show full size.

Members do get access to their own photo gallery that stores images on the site.

never figured out how to do this if it is possible, but once I post something on a thread.. it shows up any new post going forward. how can I remove myself from that thread?

That would be under the 'settings' tab under your profile. Click the arrow next to your username at the top right of the screen and click 'my settings'. You can change what you need from there.

The blue box with a checkmark icon means you've Subscribed to the thread:
The blue tag icon means the thread has some (automated) "keyword tags" associated:
The paper clip icon means the thread contains (legacy) attachments:
The pin icon means the thread is a sticky so that it stays at the top of each page:

Then there's the status icons. There's a legend (definition) displayed below the index page. In Summary:

You've posted to the thread and there is no new content in the thread:
You've posted to the thread and there is new content in the thread:
You've posted to the "hot" thread (thread that receives X amount of activity) and there is new content in the thread:
You've not posted to the "hot" thread (thread that receives X amount of activity) and there is no new content in the thread:

So the arrow within the envelope means you've replied to the thread. The color indicates if the thread is considered "hot" or not based on activity within the thread. The envelope being open or closed indicates if there's new content or not.

New content or no new content is determined based on what threads you've opened and your last visit time. It's temporarily recorded in the database so that you can keep track while browsing via different devices (phone, laptop, desktop, etc.). After X amount of days, those threads are assumed to have been "read", even if they haven't been, and thus marked as such.
