Answer to popup vs. banner ad question
Mood:  irritated
I did manage to get an answer on Angelfire regarding the popup vs. banner ads and how we go about changing from one to the other now. Here is their reply for the other person who wondered the same thing:

"Free members no longer have a choice of how ads will appear on their Websites. All free users will now see embedded ads and pop up ads. If you decide to build your web site with frames, you run the risk of having the ads appear in multiple frames. We suggest that you do not build with frames.

If you would like to upgrade your Web site to an ad free plan starting at $4.95 a month, please login to Angelfire, go to the Web Shell then click on My Account, then click on Upgrade Your Membership."

In other words, it's just one more way to coerce people to pay for webspace.

computerly retarded
Mood:  not sure
Topic: HTML Questions
Erm, could anyone help me with fonts? I visit other people's sites all the time and i see all these titles in really cool fonts, some flashing, some glittery, others are just shadowed, but they all look really cool, and i was wondering where one would find such fonts. Is there a site, or do i have to make them because i'm graphically challenged as well. Unfortunately.

Web Site Moved Mysteriously
My web site was up at www. angelfire.com/theforce/moratorium0/. Then it was replaced by a blank colored page. I reentereed the index page and it was okay a day then disappeared aagain as a purple page. My web site was in fact moved, with some cosmetic changes, to www.angelfire.com/theforce/moratorium/. I'm losing traffic, support, money etc. and human rights issues are being set back. How can I get oit to stop disappearing? The same thing happened on Tripod.

Banner ads to popups
Mood:  quizzical
Someone below asked how to change from banner ads to popups now. I would like to know the same thing. I wrote to angelfire about it just now, but I have zero confidence that they will reply (with the actual answer to my question) since I had to choose one of four sub-topics, none of which had anything whatsoever to do with the question I asked.

So: How do you change back to popups only? I would like to go to a frames-based site and don't want a banner on each frame.

Chris

A single page on my site crashes my browser
Mood:  irritated
Now Playing: Here's the problem
Topic: HTML Questions
I had recently added some new pictures to my site, on several diffrent pages. Everything was fine until today when the same page has repeadedly crashed my browser.

I tried removing the picture I added, I even removed a photo I added yesterday. The page itself only lists as 4k and the file sizes for the photos are small.

Is this a problem with HTML or is Angelfire running new ads that are crashing my browser? It only happens on one page, and I don't want anybody except someone from Angelfire to link to it as I think it will crash most other browsers as well. I'm hoping for some help on this as my traffic will drop sharply over it.

I'm trying to fix the problem myself, but with no soccess. Oh, I get an 'this program has committed an illlegal action' error message before every crash.

I've tried the site with two diffrent ISPs too, and they both crashed.

Image Hosted By Angelfire...?
So I've had this image (a non-offensive avatar for my message boards) for quite a long time now, and all of a sudden that Angelfire image is being displayed instead. Anybody know what's going on here?

Here's the picture in case you're wondering.

Angelfire Upgrade
Topic: News
Yesterday, Angelfire completed a long-awaited and major backend upgrade. (Tripod users may recall a similar upgrade made there about a month ago.) This upgrade does not have many user-visible changes, but it does include many, many bugfixes that have been queueing up over time.

1. Numerous blogs fixes, including two new beach-themed templates.
2. Webshell & advanced editor updates.
3. Several major bugs in the remote loading block for free accounts have been fixed.
4. Better linking with Lycos Domains.
5. WebStats fixes (premium only)
6. Other stuff that I'm forgetting.

WebStats reports for today will be slightly delayed because of the upgrade, but they should all be available today.

If you see any odd problems on the site today, respond in this thread and I'll make sure they get looked at. I've raised the ads and frontpage concerns already; the remote loading block stuff is as-designed however.

Pornographic popups on my Angelfire pages!!!
Mood:  irritated
I haven't been to my pages for a couple weeks. But I went to my homepage today, and was bombarded by about 5-6 popup, graphically-obscene ads for some sort of porn! They were huge popups too.

My site is supposed to be OK for kids, as it's about my Morrowind mods.

The ads didn't turn up again when I clicked on other pages on my site. But that bombardment of ads was horrible!

And the only other webpages I've been on today was the Elder Scrolls message board and my Zy webpages, neither of which have any sort of ads.

So this is strictly an Angelfire problem.

Frontpage
I'm trying to use Frontpage and my search page and feedback page do not work because the server extension file is missing. The file is _derived/nortbots.htm. Have you run into this problem using Frontpage? The support person said that Angelfire does not have this file among the server extensions for Frontpage. What is your experience?

Hosting images on angelfire
Topic: Image Questions
I've been using my angelfire acount to host pictures to be viewed on message boards aswell as my site. I resently came up with the probem that where all my pictures were on fourms they had been replaced by "image hosted by angelfire" picture.
My first thought was that my site had gone over its bandwidth limit perhaps but nope. I also checked to see if the adresses were wrong but they aswell were just fine. A friend of mine just resently got this problem too.
I've been using angelfire for a good while without having this problem before.

How can I fix this?

Thx for your time.
