A skydiver died under a two-canopy out malfunction in Spain. No further information is available at this time.

The only 2 folders that come standard is the "Inbox" and "Sent Items". The rest you can decide for and create yourself.. Safe swoops Sangiro

You can of course find almost anything on Google... doesn't mean the'll let your site participate in their business programs. They're funny that way. Safe swoops Sangiro

Heya all, Most of you have seen this post by now... Here's another sneak peek into and upcoming Premier Feature. Sorting PMs into folders including the ability to search PMs.

I've looked into that. Google actually turned Dropzone.com down because it had too much pornographic and offensive content. Some people still think there's no harm in being obscene in the forums... Thanks for the best wishes.

Thank you everyone for the well wishes!

Dude, Mike was here long before there was even registration required on the first set of forums. But I'm sure you can find something else that will be bigger than his.... Safe swoops Sangiro

Satire folks... Keep it light. Mike has been on Dropzone.com longer than Google. Safe swoops Sangiro

What do you hope Premiere Membership will include?

Our official position on that remains one of "plausible denial". Safe swoops Sangiro -

Rosa... remove the "&" from the file name.... probably best to just stick to letters and numbers. -
Why thank you Ron. Like I said... impossible! Safe swoops Sangiro
-
Like I said... about half a jump ticket per month. Not going to give specifics until the launch.
-
Sorry buddy, this is going to be cc only or the overhead of managing this manually will drag me down.
-
Aaah of course! I think it's going to be hard to convince anyone that that was pure coincidence... but it actually was! Calvin and Hobbes is just my all-time favorite comic. Safe swoops Sangiro

WorldPay... a proper CC processor. Safe swoops Sangiro

No it's not. He's not the only one out there with a political signature. I'm sure Ron will understand. Safe swoops Sangiro

Heya all, About 3 months ago I realized that the combination of Dropzone.com and my "real job" at Sapient has finally become a bit too much for me. As a Director at Sapient I work pretty full days and then sit down between 9:00 PM and 2:00 AM to clean out my Dropzone.com Inbox and try to write a few lines of code.... Dropzone.com has been piling up in my mind as well. I have a load of ideas that I'd like to implement with simply no time to do so. That frustrates me. I keep thinking of how and knowing that I can make this better... and I can't find the time to do it the way I want to. So it became time to choose. I submitted my resignation back then and today (September 15) was my last day at Sapient. Just thought I'd let you know that I'll be putting all my time and energy into the site in the near future.

Heya all, At the end of September Dropzone.com will launch a voluntary Premier Membership service. The decision to move forward with voluntary user supported subscription services was made for a few reasons: I want to keep Dropzone.com on the web and without this, I can not pay the bills. We want to keep advertising content low and we want to provide you with the best possible service and the coolest features we can! That's it. Dropzone.com is a very advertising-lite site. We don't bombard you with pop-up ads, or plaster the site like a Nascar car. Even though we serve millions of pages every month we choose not to join large advertising syndicates and expose you to streams of irrelevant non-skydiving promotions and ads. We want to keep it that way. We continue to appreciate the support we get from the skydiving industry in this. Rather than turning to large corporate sponsors from outside we'd prefer to come to you, the community, for support. People have shown over the years that they are willing to donate and get involved. I very deliberately made a decision that nothing that has been free up to now will become a paid service. You will be able to continue enjoying Dropzone.com exactly as you have without ever giving us a penny. That's the way I want it. We will create additional Premier services, and those users who find them valuable can subscribe on a voluntary basis. I think they're pretty neat! We understand that not everyone will support or agree with this decision and as I said, you're welcome to continue to use everything you always have on Dropzone.com for free. The Premier Features is of value to you or it's not. That value is worth a fee to you, or it's not. That's why it is a voluntary subscription. So what will be included in this Premier Membership you wonder? Well, we've started by putting together a nice packet of cool features. We'll continue to build this out and increase the value for our Premier Members. We'll also continue building some funky free services as always! Just a few of the Premier features included in the launch: [UL]Advanced Search of User Database POP Access the your Dropzone.com Mail (Check mail with Outlook etc) Mail disk space bumped up from 3 MB to 50 MB Organize Forum Private Messages into Folders Search Private Messages Access to Premier Support Forum Classified Ad Keyword Notifications Upload 4 additional photos with a Classified Add a clickable link to an external site on your Classified Display a "times viewed" counter on your Classified Ads Upload photos directly to Personal Gallery without Admin approval Flagged as a Premier Member on Dropzone.com Exclusive Gear give-aways, competitions and raffles More....[/UL] Talking about gear give-aways... Keep your eyes open for our launch special. We're going to give-away a complete system from Aerodyne! That's right, one Premier Member will walk away with a new Icon, a Smart reserve and his or her choice of a Pilot or Vision main! And how much will all of this cost me? Think in the range of half a jump ticket per month, or a MacDonalds happy meal and a beer! I think it's worth it. The coolest thing however is that you'll be supporting Dropzone.com and in doing so provide me with the opportunity to get out there build an even greater site for all of us to enjoy. See a list of Premier Features Take a Tour of some of the Premier FeaturesThank you again for your support!

Not from England! I met you at Eloy last year through the Pixie and that long-haired hippie who jumps without a rig. Safe swoops Sangiro

Heya all, I notice some people are using their signature lines to propagate their party-political views all over the forums. You're welcome to leave it there but then make sure you never post outside the Speaker's Corner. Otherwise, feel free to replace them with your favorite quote from Calvin and Hobbes. I can turn off the ability to have a signature by individual, so there's no point trying to muck around with this one... The great majority of us don't come here for political inspiration. There's a forum for it, but I personally would like to see as little of it as possible so keep it there please. Safe swoops Sangiro

I know you!

Congratulations Chuck! Safe swoops Sangiro
