Any objections if I hang around a bit too? No plans on leaving just yet. I've never tried Marmite, so I don't know if I like it or not. Can I smear some on your breasticals, Dawn? That'd give it the best chance of a positive association for me icon_biggrin.gif

Something else i forgot about pictures

Watermarking, at the moment when you upload your pictures it puts the site name on it. We will improve the way it works based on the following.

1. The location of the watermark is on one edge, this means that you could have your pics cropped and used elsewhere without your consent.

We will use a clear but visable watermark that goes accross the middle to ensure ths can not happen, basically it will make your pics non useable if someone was to take them from the site.

Is not possible through techy wizardry to stop people taking the pics from this site ?



That was actually what I was trying to ask.

mr ben.............

it would be prudent to read the subsequent pages in full.....we have all voiced our concerns in some way or other...or our support.....

the fact is "yes...we have a new owner"......weve argued.....sulked....ranted...raved.......in some cases i have been involved in this...

but martin especially has answered what he can and like the rest of us we can only wait and see what will happen as he has asked......

martin himself has made mistakes....but he has apologised for how they came about....cut the guy some slack and wait with the rest of us......

TBH if id have out up with the flack he has i might have been so pissed off id of made comments such as he has....were like a group of legal eagles who pick out any mistakes hes made in posting.......

i wouldnt be surprised if...once all this has settled he might save some money on having us fight his legal battles for him icon_smile.gif icon_smile.gif



so im afraid its a case of put up or shut up m8.....the site is still free....


(telephone call between martin and others at the office)

martin.....ok you lot....whos gonna be posting on the forums tomorrow........

the rest......silence.....................

martin....oh come on.....they arent that bad are they.......

the rest.....(a few sobs can be heard)

martin....oh bugger!!!!!!!!!!!

Take what you need, but not enough to hang yourselves.

The idea of a locked thread that only Admin and Mods can post on seems a sound one to me. That could contain the questions and answers that have been given and would save a lot of unneccessary clutter here.

Quite right - there should be more Faqqing on SH! icon_wink.gif


Well I have put that idea forward twice on this thread now! icon_rolleyes.gif

Glad someone noticed! icon_biggrin.gif

Could I make a suggestion (i did it earlier but it may have been lost in the crowd)...

Perhaps a New Ownership FAQ thread.
Lock it immediately and only the Admins can post on it.

Have a single post with a summary of all the questions and your replies.
You can update it when a new question is raised.

That way people will not have to wade thru this entire thread to see if a Q has been asked (and answered) already.

Just a thought that may help a little!

Hugs,

I noticed it as well and think its a good idea.

Good afternoon everyone

I'm possibly not one of the more popular people with some of you right now - I'm afraid there are one or two things I do get passionate about, and be it good or bad - I chose to vent! I think my views of certain businesses are fairly well known by now - But thats already been said, and is now in the past - I don't think there is anything to be gained from bringing it up again

However I'm not an unreasonable man, and I certainly don't want to see this site Implode - I'll give just about anyone the benefit of the doubt. And so I'll be one of the suck it and see brigade. I do hope that the new owners visions and plans for the site, along with their promises to us, are fulfilled, and not hollow words as we have all seen elsewhere.

I'll give you six months - to see how it goes - But at the first sight of having to pay for anything, or insidious advertising, or bogus ads, and links to totally non related content - I ( and I fear a larger majority of the community) will be soooooooo out of here! We are not all idiots, or sheep, blindly accepting everything we are told.

Show me what you are going to do - Make me think " wow I'm glad these people came along"

Lets consider this me handing out the cyber olive branch for the time being

kbuk

Yes we would be very keen on that idea. I think there was some silly court juddgement that might make it harder to sell adult DVDs online, but other things could be traded. This could be open to scams though.

We are both soft swingers, so for us it would be great if the new version of SH could have an ads category for soft swingers.

OK

Here's a question to lighten the mood a little.......




When are "Da Management" going to get their avatars up?


How can I do a cheap impersonation in the "DaveJ Avatar Challenge" thread if they don't have avatars dunno.gif

giggle.gif just kidding guys.

Oh and well done for persivering and reading/answering all the questions. Most of us are far too lazy to read the whole thread

Right click and "save as" can be disabled but that doesn't stop someone doing a screen grab and picking the pic out of that with a graphics package.
