Yeah it's snail mail alright. Good I am glad I didn't accidentally sign up for anything. I never though I was that careless.

I got a Bill from Internet Listing Service Corporation for 35$. I have no idea where this came from or why. Does anyone know?

I was just wondering how to add new smileys to my forum. I downloaded a package of them from the phpbb website, and now I want to install them without ruining everything... Like last time...

I bet this probably happens all the time, but this is my first time. My site, forum, and even cpanel all give me the fail to load after 60 seconds message. Is there anything I can do? When will it be better? I am sure you guys are working on it, but, is there some kind of thing I should do?

Is there a way to adjust a forums font and size without changing the skin? I got a phpbb skin called Deafcon blue and I really like it, but the font is so small. I would like to make the standard font of all posts one size bigger. Is there a way?

Haha yeah sorry. www.virtualalex.com/forums Tell me what else you need.

I tried to activate BlueIce and there was some error, and now my forum is gone... I just loads to forum/index but it's blank, no source code. I panicked and deleted BlueIce and hoped it would defoult to subsilver but it didn't, and I don't know how to access my forum without actually accessing the forum.... Is there a way to go to my admin access without actually clicking on it? I guess it a rather long and complicated link?

Ah, thank you for that link, although I am going to hold off on changing that until I get my new skin... Should I PM Raul or something?

Ok I finally got the logo working, apparently I needed to name it phpBB with capital BB. Now the style is giving me trouble. The site you linked me too gave these directions: When installing a new template(e.g. one that you downloaded), be sure that your new template directory is nested correctly in the templates directory. It also must have the correct name (case sensitive). For instance, if you had a new template named subCheese, then in the templates directory you should have a folder called "subCheese" (not "subcheese"), and in that folder will be all of your template files (*.tpl files). BlueIce is the template i am trying to use and I checked and double checked for all of the above to be true. Yet when I go to Add Styles in the Admin Panel I have no options. It doesn't detect it or something. RAUL!!! Help! Oh yeah I almost forgot. Is there a way to make the new php_logo I made link back to my host site? Instead of linking to the same forum that it is on?

Wow talk about frustrating! I deleted all things named Logo_phpBB, I had 2 of them in my remote folder logo_phpbb and logo_phpBB I didn't know you could have file names that close together... I deleted both, and after about 20 min of reloading the image finally went away. I then put in my own file, and it will not accept it. I have been reloading for about ten minutes. Also I downloaded a new skin, how do I make use of it?

I did enter the exact name, and now if I go to my forum and say open image in new window it appears to be ing subsilver/images/logo_phpbb.gif but if I open the image on my remote, or local folder they both open in photoshop as the image I made. So I don't even know where the classed logo is! It isn't in my folders.

Hmm well I fallowed all the instructions and I made a .gif image thats the same dimensions of the phpbb logo, I put it into the subsilver/images folder but after uploading, the logo is still there. I went back into the folder and now there are 2 logos a phpbb and a phpBB logo, both open as the picture I made in photoshop... Whats the problem? Also I couldn't find any additional skins, or looks in either of the link provided. Did I just look wrong? All I found was "modifications" but that didn't seem to be what I am lokoing for.

I got my site and my forum up an running real smooth, but on my forum I have a large phpBB logo on the top left of the main page. Is there any way I can change that logo to my websites logo? If so, can I then make that website logo be a link to my sites main page? Also where do I get new skins? I am looking for a light blue/dark blue motif.

Ok everything is going smoothly but now I have a bunch of guests posting messages. I don't want guests, I want people to have to register to post. How do I do that?

Alright thanks alot, it seems that everythins is working fine. One last thing. In the forum configuration I set the clock to be GMT-5 but it wont work and it keeps showing the GMT time. No matter how I change it the time always remains the same. How do I get this fixed?

Nevermind I found it, but it told me setting premissions is only allowed in version 7.1 :'( does the site have a free update or something?

What context menu? Anyone know where it is?

I would really like to thank all of you guys for being so helpful and being so quick about it. I can always count on an answer to my latest questions within a few hours. Thanks alot. Dick- I downloaded the extension (I am using DW MX 2004 7.0) and I am not sure where to put it, or how to install it. Could you help me out with that? And then after it's installed how do I set premissions?

I have a mac, smart FTP is a PC program. I don't beleive dreamweaver doesn't have premissions. I will go ask the dreamweaver forums.

I am using dreamweaver, I looked around a bit and I can't find premmissions anywhere

Unless we are talking about the remote section. In that case there is a forums folder and an avatar folder. How do I set the premission?

Ok I think I may have messed something up... There is no forums folder in my site folder. Althought there is a forum folder on my desktop... I downloaded phpbb of the website, but it seems that tch installed it by themselves so I took the forums folder out of my site folder an the forum still works fine. Botton line is, there is www.virtualalex.com/forums is where my forum is now, the folder on my desktop is and always has been titled "forum" not "forums" so I don't think it's being used. How is this possible?

"To upload avatars you need to set the avatar folders permissions to 777." Where do I do that? Also where is the overall_header template found?

OK it seems to be working. I have 2 questions though. Firstly, avatars don't seem to be working. I have the options set to 120x120 49kb avators. I have tried uploading one from my machine and it deasn't work, and I tried putting in a URL that also did not work. Secondly is there a way I can put a banner back to my main site on the forum index? I don't want people to be stranded once they click on the forum button.

Oh, looks like it is a link after all. Ok so now it wants me to give it the admin user and pass, I am pretty sure I have those. But when it askes install at this url there is a blank after www.virtualalex.com/ _____ what do I put there? Forums? phpBB 2.0.8a Setup phpBB is a web bulletin board system. New Installation Admin User: Admin Pass: Install at this url: http://virtualalex.com/ (You must install in a top level directory. Example: 'http://virtualalex.com/phpBB' is a valid place to install, but 'http://virtualalex.com/user/andy/phpBB' is not.
