Just like the old days Chels...
I uploaded an image to test and when I was filling in the ISO field, I used the number pad. When I hit "0" for 100 ISO, I got a message to use numbers only. Minor issue.

I've seen a lot of usefilm.com mentions throughout the site. May be do a search and replace?

Steve, am slowly working on it. Seems like they like to hide then pop up when you least expect it. Hopefully this site will be around for a long time, so plenty of time to fix things.

Steve, thanks. Don't know how I missed that one. Fixed it but it takes too long to run the query, took almost 25 seconds. I will have to do some re-indexing to speed things up a bit.

Please be patient if you see a missing image now and then. Had one of the image disk drives crash, it is checking now. Will probably have to purchase a replacement. All images are back online so you probably will not see a problem. Also some of the more intense image queries may be a bit slow. We need one more drive for the database array as it is operating in degraded mode so it may be a bit slow or timeout now and then.
Love keeping the server going with duct tape and bailing wire!  Any donations are gladly accepted!

1) image pages like http://www.imageopolis.com/Pictures.asp show wrong tiling. The tiles are sized differently because of different size (and missing) profile pictures, causing different rows to have various numbers of tiles in them.
Best remove those profile pictures, they add nothing and both make the page look fugly and increase load times and network load (and thus bandwidth consumption both for the server and visitors).
2) "disable banner ads" has no effect. I get several ads per page, almost all of them utterly unrelated to the site topic and anyway useless to be because of geographic targeting.

Hi Jeroen, Welcome back, been a long time! Should be all fixed now as far as the tiling. For most people it should have looked ok, but you have the extra admin buttons along the bottom of each thumb that take up any variable slack space. I will talk to the others here about the profile pics on the thumbnails. They are a bit much. Adding them to the comments and photograph technical block should be adequate.
For the moment ads are being displayed as there are very few donors even though old ones from years back have not been removed. Trying to get the revenue stream back up so this place can at least pay for itself. Once we get things back in the black we will start removing them for the donors as before. So please spread the word we are back and help us by visiting our sponsors.

hey Phil :)
No problem with ads per se, but being bombarded like today with ads for the communist party (not joking)?

Communist party! Ha that is a good one. Click on it a few times and cost them some money! What kind of sites have you been visiting anyway? You know Google looks where you have been and then feeds ads you might like. Everyone gets different ads served to them.

Was bombarded by sites for local political parties for days by Google, on any computer.
They're getting way too smart for themselves, knowing it is election season here.
Now that the elections are over, all the political ads mysteriously disappeared.

Funny how that works Jeroen, you should see it here during election season, it is amazing how much they must spend with Google.

Hi, I was just looking at EC awards - and noticed, it's increased to 540+ award images, from 80-100 I guess. Looks normal until page 10+, the images duplicate,maybe it's just my browser etc, or it's still early in the morning

Thanks Nigel, that is what happens when you try to write SQL code at 3AM. Will look into it today and see what is going on.

Hi,
I have noticed a change, great. Just seen something similar also
>> Featured Photos
Past Photographs of the Day: Newest First
There are 1340 recent images in 45 Pages
Maybe it's my browser again - page 40+ some images are displayed 4-5 times.. I guess you have seen also.
I just thought I'd point this one out etc

Working on that Nigel. It is actually because of the way they were entered, they are actually duplicated so have a little database cleanup to do.

Some links under the "Image Options" left hand menu may be very slow to respond. Apparently this is due to the way the new database server handles the queries vs. the old database server. I am working on getting things back up to speed. If the request doesn't time out, it will eventually come back to you so please be patent, you only have to click once.
Sorry for the problems and ask for your patience.

Hi,
The new Imageopolis Fine Arts Photo Gallery Store - Fine Artist looks amazing.
I'm not sure if you call it a bug. Currency, on the preview. Image Link ---> after Dominant Colors:
I guess it's not a bug(it's a preview view in '$')? I guess you have seen this already.
The web pages look great, thanks for adding my photographs.

The 'My Favorites' feature isn't working (for me). Images I favorite (my name shows up in drop down list, link changes to 'unfavorite' etc) don't appear if I call up the 'My Favorites' page. Instead I get a page with the error messages:
Sorry, there are only 0 total pages in your selection!
Please enter a page between 1 and 0 and try again.
Sorry, nothing found matching your criteria.
Please search again with different search parameters.
I'll try to post an image, but adding an attachment in this forum doesn't seem to work for me either! Here goes:
