Yes, I see the pics in the gallery. When I click on the oval "Gallery" icon at the top, I go to a page and see 3 thumbnails for the 3 new images. Two are by you ("Sword of Fallen" and "Lightsabre Display") and the other is called "Out of Gas"

As for posting attachments, I don't know how to do that here, and if it involves linking to my own site, I can't do that here either without adjusting my htaccess file to give permission and I don't have time to do that just now as I have to shower and leave for the doctor.

There's a little box at the bottom of this (and any forum) page that says Posting rules. It should read something like this:

You may post new threads
you may post replies
You may post attachments
You may edit your posts

The line about attachments is the important one. Either it will say may or may not.

In the posting rules it says:

This is what I see when I click the oval download link at the top. I get sent to this page:

You should've posted that this morning. I think I actually can help you. On the part I have circled on my attachment, you can see this:

logged in as evil_genius_180
log out

On yours, it doesn't have your membername, it just reads:

log out.

You need to go to that screen. Log out on that page by clicking on that. Then do the cookiee thing and log in again when it redirects you. That should clear up the problem. I know, because I too have had this issue once or twice.

Once you're logged back in, go to the downloads and, if it shows your membername, you should see the downloads. (hopefully)

Acadia July 19th, 2006 10:54 AM

I have done that more than a few times already, and now just again. Everytime I see "log out", I click it and try logging in again. Nothing is helping me.

When I log out using the "log out' that you see in the image, I get an error window saying that an "error occurred while attempting to log you out. Click here to log out". I click the word "here" and get another window that tells me the cookies have been cleared and to either return to the previous page I was viewing or go to the forums.

When I log out using the "log out" link at the top of this page below the oval gallery icon, I get a window that tells me that my cookies are cleared and to either return to the previous page I was viewing or go to the forums.


Anyway, I have to run and shower and leave for the doctor. I'll be back later to check for further help.

This is freakin' nutty!! I too have things to do, but we'll try to figure this crap out later. :phaser:downloads

Kai July 19th, 2006 11:44 AM

when you log out.. do you then shut your browser down then reopen it? (just a thought)...

Trying to figure this out I have been logging out using the "logout" link below the oval gallery icon. I then click "Downloads" and use that "logout" that is showing in the screenshot above.

I clear my cookies just in case they are left behind, and I clear my browser cache.

I have closed my browser and rebooted and came back.

I still can't see anything but what is in the image I posted.

Kai July 19th, 2006 03:00 PM

'k... what browser are you using?

Acadia July 19th, 2006 05:09 PM

Everything I've tried to do is posted in this thread.

I'm using Mozilla-Firefox 5.1.04. I've also tried IE 6.

I've turned may firewall off and sat behind my router.

I connected directly to my DSL and left my firewall up and gave the site permission in my firewall options.

I've logged out of the site in 2 different places (link below oval gallery icon. And in the spot showin in the screenshot above)

I've deleted cookies and cache a number of times.

I've closed my browser and reopened it.

I've rebooted a number of times.

I've turned off my ad blocker.

I've checked my computer clock to make sure the date and time are correct.

I'm sure I tried other things but off the top of my head I can't remember. My head is feeling kind of fuzzy from pain meds right now.

***************************

Apparently 2 other functions that require a minimum of 5 posts are the ability to view the gallery and post attachments in the forums. Both of which I can do.

My problem is solely with the downloads area. I have more than 30 posts and I still don't see anything other than what I see in that screenshot above.

Someone at Renderosity suggested I write to Warrior and ask him for help. I sent an email and haven't heard anything back from him at all and his PM box is filled so I can't send a PM here. I even left a post directed to him and he hasn't replied yet.

I'm about ready to give up :(

pakled July 19th, 2006 07:50 PM

hmm..Acadia, I'm in the same boat, but...
last night I could see the downloads (mainly Lightwave and 3dmax meshes), but tonight
bupkis, nada, nichevaw, rien, etc
I'm using Firefox.

Acadia July 20th, 2006 04:35 AM

OMG!!!!! Wheeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!! Finally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can see them!!!!

I clicked on the download icon and got to the page and there were pictures!!!!!

Also where it showed only "log out" in the screenshot I posted, it now has "logged in: Acadia".

I'm not sure what happened to allow me to see them today but not before; whether it was something fixed behind the scenes or an ISP cache problem on the part of my ISP, but I'm thrilled!!!

*limps off happily to look around*

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

xantor July 20th, 2006 06:49 AM

It is not working for me now, either. :rolleyes:

xantor July 20th, 2006 07:04 AM

Now the downloads are working for me again, after leaving the site five or six times. :wtf:

Acadia July 20th, 2006 09:00 AM

It sounds like it is site related; a glitch of some kind. We can't all be having ISP cache issues (if that is what my problem was)

evil_genius_180 July 20th, 2006 09:53 AM

Yes, there is a glitch in the downloads area. We've known about it for a while, but I haven't heard of anyone having this much problem. Usually, it works for new members with 5 posts, 10 at the most, but this is ridiculous. I mean, Acadia has almost 7 times the required posts.

joelglaine July 20th, 2006 02:15 PM

Since five posts, it has worked about 40% of the time, but only at the download page. Man--what an exercise to download a mesh! Oy! :rolleyes: I hope it get addressed soon.

Acadia July 20th, 2006 03:47 PM

Well, I only managed to get to the download area once, now I'm back to seeing the page that I show in the screenshot above.

root July 20th, 2006 05:11 PM

I am new here too - and this is a little confusing. . . But this seems to be a wonderful site. I Like the layout.
