  1. I decided to try out the hide function in my gallery so hid an innocuous pic to see what would happen. It was hidden, as expected. I can't find any way to unhide the photograph, however. I can't even find that the photo exists. What gives?
  2. Thanks for the response. I also got one from samstevens, who counseled patience. I can live with that, so I'll return to being a happy camper.
  3. Thanks for getting back to me. All of this sounds good. I will try to remember that patience is a virtue and look forward to continuing progress on the converted site.
  4. Once again, in the conversion my display name was changed from "rws" to "rws1664886018" -- I don't know why, and I don't know how my ridiculous new name was chosen. I don't have to have my original name back -- there may be problems with a three-letter name. But I would like a name that at least makes sense and isn't 77% random numbers. How can I get at least an acknowledgement that this annoyance will at some point be addressed?
  5. I would like to request again that my display name, rws1664886018, be changed to something simpler, something like rogerstump or rogerwstump.  Thanks for your attention to this issue.

  6. No, I just checked and no answer to my post from yesterday. I'll follow Sandy's advice and try contacting Admin in a day or two. By the way, I also no longer have my avatar, but I assume that that will get solved too. On the positive side, the system remembers by login and password.
  7. Yes, I had something similar (maybe even more egregious) with my name, which went from rws to rws1664886108 -- the added numbers meaning nothing to me. I have been trying to get a response about undoing this change but so far nothing. I posted about the problem on this forum and haven't looked through for responses, so maybe something is waiting for me. If I find anything out, I'll pass it on. I also am a rookie. At least I'm not a newbie anymore.
  8. In the old photo.net, my display name was "rws." Very simple, easy for friends and family to find when looking at my library on photo.net. After the conversion, with no input from me, my display name has become "rws1664886018," which is clunky and cumbersome (and hard to remember when giving it to others). I assume that there is a good reason for this change, also I see many familiar "old" display names looking on posts and lists of members. Anyway, is there some way I can get this changed to a name of my choosing. I understand why the moderators don't want to have unlimited display name changing, but I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to have some inut as to what my name will be. Possibly related to this, can the "Custom Title" be used to stand in for the display name? If so, how? Irrelevant note: Why am I awake at 2:00 am thinking about this? It's a distraction from the bizarre Japanese Formula 1 Grand Prix which is taking place in a fierce rainstorm. The race is now stopped and drivers are changing to "wet" tires, so maybe things will settle down.
  9. I'm wondering if we will be able change our display name.  Mine used to be rws, which is much more manageable that my new rws1664886018.  I especially liked being able to tell people that they could access my catalog simply with the url www.photo.net/rws.  Will this convenience be available again, at least on paid accounts?  I realize this is a minor issue, but I did like the old arrangement.

    I've only glanced briefly at the forum system, although I was a very heavy user of No Words in the past.  I'll probably try it out this weekend. Otherwise, I am impressed with the many improvements you have introduced to the site and with your speed in getting them implemented.

  10. I've been taking pictures for many decades, starting out with a black-and-white darkroom, then a period concentrating on color slides, and more recently on digital photography. Most of my photos here will be of digital origin, but I plan to include older negative and slide film images as well.

      And here we almost are! 😄

      The 'Categories' do not yet match the previous boards.  Hopefully, this will be straightened out when indexing is complete.

      I have no signature.  Maybe in the future.
