If you are new to the world of file sharing please do not be shy! Everyone was ‘new’ when they first started.

When posting, please include details for:
Your Operating System ....... Your version of your Gnutella Client ....... Your Internet connection (56K, Cable, DSL) ....... The exact error message, if one pops up
Any other relevant information that you think may help ....... Try to make your post descriptive, specific, and clear so members can quickly and efficiently help you
LimeWire and FrostWire users need to supply these details >>> System details - help us to help you (click on blue link)

Moderators

There are senior members on the forums who serve as Moderators. These volunteers keep the board organized and moving.
Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity)
Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum.
Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules.
Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted.
Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender.
Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration.


The Rules

1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences.

2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated.

3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum.

4. There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks.

5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive.

6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator.

7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required.

8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning.

9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning.

10. Posts should have descriptive subjects. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents.

11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick.

12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit.

13. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues.

Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis.


Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community.

Avatars are easy to insert in LimeWire. Just look at mine!

Just over a week ago Avatar size allowance was increased to please the members. So instead of 50 pixel max it can now be 80, & instead of 20 KB can now be 40 KB. You can thank et voilà for making the recommendation & me for changing it.

But as a sacrifice, [IMG] tags in signatures might be banned in the near future to stop trolling of the forums.

What are [img] tags? What do they do?
And thanks to you and et voila for making changes on the avatars!

IMG tags in signatures are like this one lol

ie: [url=http://...[IMG]http://img...] within member signatures. This might sound severe but it's been abused by a recent Troll. That proved the point that img tags are potentially dangerous to the forum & can be misused & abused. Instead other sig pics could be used.

(BTW CyberStalker if need be i can edit yours for you. So then you can load it up as a giF.)

What info do you need, LOTR? I don't want to lose my signature picture. How will I be able to put a picture in my signature if there's no IMG codes? As you can see, I'm not familiar with this kind of stuff.

Well, let's see what the new updated version of vBulletin offers us. I already have a copy of your avatar. It's actually only very small in size so I won't need to edit it anyway. So, at this point I'm not sure whether you'd be able to load it as part of your sig or as an avatar or as an attachment. We'll need to wait & see what options there are. I can post the gif to you.

Which image do you have a copy of. The flytrap that's under my name or the animated one in my signature? If you are referring to the animated one will it still stay as an animated pic after the changes vBulletin has made if it's kept in my signature? And how will we be able to insert pictures in our signatures if we cannot use IMG codes? Will it be changed so that there will be two options for inserting them like the way vBulletin has set up the avatars? When placing an avatar under your name it gives you two options: 1. typing in the website that the picture is found in or 2. by browsing your own Pictures files and inserting it that way.

Could you ask the moderators to change the signatures so that pictures can be put in the same way as the avatars? They'll listen to you before they would me.


If possible, could you post the .gif to me via private message? I'd prefer to get it that way.

As I said, we'll need to see what options the new version has & whether images can be uploaded from your computer as sigs. As far as your sig at the moment goes, yes I have an animated gIF version of it & it's only 12 KB in size so I could email it to you. (Can't send attachments via pm.) No need to panic at this stage. We'll see what the new version has to offer. Sample below of what I have:
Attached Images
File Type: gif cartoonflytrap4zy.gif (9.5 KB, 11 views)

i block most people's [img] tags on their signatures if they use free services like photobucket or imageshack.. sometimes those sites are slow so it lags the thread being loaded. if you have firefox, right click on an image and choose ignore image.

some people might think the site is running slow

You can upload a picture from your computer or you can upload a picture into Photobucket then use the URL link. And please don't type in all capitals.
