well damn, i guess the cat's out of the bag. i was hoping to get the theme and the modules installed before i told u guys - but it seems when i was integrating users the system sent ppl with email addys that were real automated emails.

it is really from mpg, it is not a harvesting scheme and no securities were breached

obviously, the salon is a new joomla installation for some added features that are being integrated for my amusement, and hopefully other people's as well..

Uploading pics is different, amusing not so much

Pro: It worked. Interface not cluttered. Album select before uploading. Runs slicker.

Con: only minor headscratching. Best to wait to take a hit once things get a rolling.
With “multiple files” graphical formatting looks off . I can barely read the white text on a light green background.

as if everyone knows what salon and joomla mean... it's still just techno-babble to me.
care to offer any layman terms so we can have a clue what it's about?

the only 4 ads i've seen are merely links to our own MPG activist forum,
which i don't see the problem with. are there some other ads i don't see,
since i'm using AdBlockPlus & NoScript, or what's the issue?

It is not the content, it just once ya seen it gets old. First time – cool, now just annoying, flashing for attention like .. well like ~G.
New user would still see it, but if ya been here a while it would be nice to turn it off.

There is one labeled Advertisement. “Stop the lies …get involved” but they all are adz.

Interesting to know an ad blocker would not cut ‘em all out.
Good thing topa is cool and does a great job taking care of us. she'll fix it, :mrgreen:

i could make ABP block them if i wanted to, but they aren't bothering me.
i also don't see anything really flashing,
just the one with the scale and the one at the bottom
are going through about 5 screens on a fairly leisurely 2-3 second delay.
but i only notice them in passing,
since i don't usually stop at the top or bottom of the pages for very long.
so i guess one good way to stop the ads from bugging you,
would be to scroll on down a notch to where the posts and other good stuff are at. :smoke:

hmmm

i am sorry that you weren't amused, we will have to see what we can do about that. do we need to change the how to instruction for newbs? and multiple files graphical formatting on what pages? the gallery or the forums? are you talking about the gallery interface or when you are attaching while posting? i am seeing a dark green on light green here when attaching. and i am ashamed to say that i have never even posted one directly from (or is it in) the gallery and i haven't done much browsing there either... and now i am reminded that i will probably need to think about linking the joomla to it as well.

ain't no rest for the wicked...

it says ad, but its really just um information. and sometime soon i will be replacing the place holding one's that are old info with new stuff and banners, it will be information that is going to be different... and lead to different parts of the site - and sometimes it might lead to other sites that is related to activism, pot or action alerts.

and ja... they are begging for attention. yelling shouting jumping up and down. but unlike batshit, its stuff and information and places that will better us all to be aware of and help educate newbs as well.
