While checking out various threads I have noticed several more places where there are supposed to be links to pics or photos that are embedded in the post, and they are missing replaced by the little red x's. Will they come back?
The 20 seconds part wasn't the problem...it was the "Please try again in 93 seconds" part!
I also got one that said "Please try again in 120 seconds"...
If appears to be fixed now ~ THX!!!

I to have noticed some changes, most of which have been questioned. But rather than all of us asking questions about things we don't immediately understand could a thread be posted giving a brief description of the changes and what they are supposed to accomplish?
What are the little green dot under my signature. One day there was a line of them and the next day just one. Other than a simple acknowledgment what is the Friends feature.

But maybe I can help. The little green dots are part of the karma system. We have always had a karma system - but it looks different now. You can also see these in your profile. We are still tweaking the setting on the karma system so visually, it may change. Basically it's a way for folks to show you that they like a post or your opinion on something.
The friends feature is one of the new networking features. You can exchange messages in your profile with your network of friends, see when they are online and several other options. You can always take a look at the forum FAQ's (link at top) for more info about how the new stuff works - or post your questions and we'll do our best to answer. We are all still learning.

Please tell me about these "friendship requests". What do they mean and what do I do with them?
What is the difference between a friend and a contact?
A friendship is a mutual, two-way relationship between two users. It is initiated by one user and accepted by the other.
A contact is a one-way friendship. This could be where the other person does not accept the friendship, a friendship request is pending, or you do not wish to be friends at this time but want to show them as a contact only.
Where is list of friends and contacts displayed?
Your friends and contacts are displayed on the 'Contacts and Friends' page in your User CP. Your friends are also displayed in your profile page.
How can I request a friend, accept a friend or break a friendship?
There are two ways to request a friendship with someone.
The easiest way is to view the profile page of the person you want to become friends with and click the 'Befriend' link.
The other way is to add the person to your contacts first. Then from your 'Contacts and Friends' page ask to be their friend by checking the box next to their name labeled 'Friend'. Next, save the page.
If you know the username of the person you want to be friends with you can send a friend request using the box provided and clicking 'Add Friend'.
To accept a friend, go to your 'Contacts and Friends' page. At the bottom of the page you will see a list of pending requests. Check the box for the requests you wish to accept then check the 'Accept' button and save the changes. If you do not wish to be friends then select 'Reject' instead.
Breaking a friendship can be done in three ways.
From your 'Contacts and Friends' page, uncheck the box for friend for the particular person and save the changes. If you no longer wish them to be a contact either, uncheck both boxes for that person.
In your 'Profile Page', click 'Friends' and then click 'Break Friendship' next to the user's name.
In the other person's profile, click 'Friends' then find your username and click 'Break Friendship'.

I don’t rember seeing this reported anywhere yet. When I look at a member’s profile when you Choose Show All Friends, the first 15 are shown with page links below to see the next 15, etc… When you click on any of the other page links, you are taken to the forums.
Love the new additions.Great to see some of the bugs being worked out.Hard to believe this forum could be improved.Keep up the great work.Thanks to Andy and all the Mod's.
Thanks for voicing your concerns. I'll make a list of To-Do items from the feedback on this thread and get to work later this weekend. Here is a short list that I will add to:
- Remove search restriction (one search per amount of time) for all members.
- Change flashy animation of AIR Classifieds tab so it does not Flash
- Add option for Premium Members to remove the AIR Classifieds tab in the corner
- Fix the chat room
- Remove the Karma Chicklets from under the profile.
- Add photos to the home page (instead of random, have recently uploaded to encourage members to view the new photos)
- Fix Member's Google Map
In reading the Questions and Bugs I am finding all kinds of features I had not known about. Most once advised of there existence I have been able to figure out but the Members Google Maps eludes me.
