    Thanks, it seems there's a bug on our video uploading script. Shall try to get it resolved as soon as possible.

    This problem seems to occur only on certain browsers, but I think I've located the reason. There are a few users who submitted profile pictures before we implemented a size limit, and for example, his images were 12mb big. So I've deleted the files from the server, I'm hoping this resolves the problem. Let me know if you come across it again.

    Thanks for the heads up, whoever submitted that listing forgot the negative in front of the longitude value ;) Should be fixed now.

    More than likely a typo by the author, I will correct the article so that the phrasing correctly relates to the point being made.

    This is a problem that is caused by special characters being used in the title, since our CMS uses the ? character in its URL strings at times, having it in the URL where it shouldn't be causes it to break. I've removed it from the title and while in the process, deleted the duplicate image.

    Thanks, we've added these to the database.

    That is very true to a degree and I don't deny it. And one certainly has to live with the choices one makes. But some things that become a factor in the work place, in many cases shouldn't. I can understand if you're representing a brand that for example is supposed to represent a certain type of person. But outside of where the look conflicts with the business image, and where it is just down to closed minded owners - is where it bothers me.

    The pop ups should have been removed, just give us a shout if you come across any more. Thanks

    I'm thankful I work behind a computer and in an industry that is more liberal on things, as people are still quite backwards about the whole tattoo issue. Personally I think it's annoying that one has to worry about job opportunities when he or she wants to look a certain way. I understand the reasons behind why a company may do it, but in many cases they do it solely because of how they feel about the issue, which is bs in my mind. I can't think of anything worse than down the line having to say to myself "I couldn't get tattoos on my own body, despite how I wanted them... Because I had to worry about getting a job". Would definitely not feel like I lived my own life then, and rather was just living something that everyone was forcing me to. It is becoming easier to get work these days with tattoos though, and most can be covered up with clothing - unless you're the type to get knuckles and neck. Personally, I keep them all above the wrist and below the neck.

    My knowledge of HTTPS isn't the best, but as I understand it. HTTPS is basically a secure communication framework that ensures that packets are sent between the two individuals. It's possible to do "Man in the Middle" attacks where you can intercept a communication between two parties, receiving the packets of data intended for party A sent by party B, while making party A believe it was actually sent direction from party B. Certificates are applied for, and who provides them will also provide how secure they are. Verisign for example is a well established issuer of certificates and if you are verified with Verisign a user will see a trustworthy and recognized name has confirmed you are who you say you are. With that said, I don't think one has to worry too much about getting lured into man in the middle attacks and stuff by these scammers. Primary your main concern will be making sure "paypal's" URLs provided by the scammer, should that happen - are actually paypal.com

    Clicking links can be very dangerous, there's a number of ways that users can gather all your details through links. It would be fairly easy for them to clone a site like Paypal, and instead of where you enter your details into logging you in - it would then use PHP to write what you entered into a separate file. So you'd essentially be giving them your login details. That's just one of the ways in which they are able to use links to steal. PS: Always be sure to check https and security certificates on sites where you're dealing with money. If the site isn't secure with a valid certificate, don't risk it.

    It will be 90 degree rotation apparently, and the assumption is that it will be an off/on option.

    Gross, even worse than normal. We did follow up with them but it seems they haven't resolved it, will forward it along again.

    A comb or hair brush. Long hair or short, it's just always seemed like a weird thing to use.

    Thanks for the heads up guys, Will forward this along so it's taken up with the ad hosts. Screenshots will help in effectively removing them easier.

    I cannot hold a single interest for more than a few months. I obsess about something until I become moderately good at it, and then move on to something new. Wish I could stop, hah. That I am a sucker for collectable/rare things.

    Pretty much the same, minus the striked-through ones. I love watching cricket with some marmite on toast.
