Upgraded to Argon, now Images don't display
Topic: Image Questions
Hello I have been using Angelfire's free service for several years now. I've had no problems. However, all the ads have really gotten annoying, so I upgraded to Argon. I received my own domain, which sounded nice, some POP e mail accounts which sounded nice, and NO ADS! Well, the ads went away immediately and it took a bit before my domain name actually brought up my site. BUT, now none of my images show. I just have red X's. If I go to the longer URL (old address), everything is just fine, pictures and all. I tried renaming the images subdirectory and that didn't work either. Also, the e mail forwarding and POP e mail does not work. I wrote to Angelfire about this but have not yet heard anything. So, if anyone can help me with any of my problems, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you in advance!

I recently upgraded to Neon to eliminate the sidebar. Now, several former students trying to access the page from the University of Arizona library tell me that they cannot get it. Any ideas as to why?

"Bait and Wait or Wait and Bait?
Mood:  quizzical
Topic: FrontPage
I am really furious about this sidebar that has suddenly appeared when one should wisely adhere to the age-old dogma "If it ain't broke dont fix". I believe that we in the shadow of this eclipse are taken for fools. I am sure the sidebar phenom arose by some Geek who , desperate to enhance him/herself at angelfire's corporate ladder, introduced it as " a source for more visitors or ads" but it will surely backfire based on what I am reading. I used to have faith with the angelfire crew until this "Symptom of rudimentary Monopoly" appeared as something called sidebar. I am compelled to call it ProstituteBar but whether it is a "Bait and Wait" or "Wait and Bait" type I am not sure and I wouldn't vouch for either of the two evils either! I can not even add information to my list anymore by editing my webpage ..can't even see my webpage either! Is this some kind of 21st century joke??? Someone please do something!!!

Can anyone help me with putting the " = a" symbol (in the picture) a little bit higher, it should be just between where it is now and the top.
The HTML-Code is:
Thank you for your time.

table border="0">
table border="0">

sidebar total eclipse
Mood:  incredulous
Topic: FrontPage
What the heavens is going on with the sidebar introduction???? I can not see the web page and I am getting a list of websites that I can not even open and view, let alone my own site.
I thought I had the only problem on this XP computer I am working but at my work it seems to be working fine..whatever it is there is a bug that is not affecting certain computers. I addressed my problem but they are saying it works fine..the problem still persists.

side bar
Mood:  party time!
I think Angelfire is missing the boat here. look at all that wasted space with the use of sidebar! Since that page covers a whole site, they should put more addresses on it so the happy external visitors can really have fun wasting their time looking at each one. they sure aren't going to see anything on my site!

Side bar
Mood:  irritated
I would also like to know why the sidebar covers my site? Do you realize you are costing us money for people not being able to view our sites?

get rid of the sidebar
Mood:  irritated
Hello! Why isn't Angelfire responding to the numerous complaints about the sidebar? IT DOESN'T WORK!!!! Today I am using a different public computer at the library, and guess what! The sidebar covers up my entire page, and there is no way to close it out. I am being blocked from my own page. Do they realize just how many people use public computers, and have no choice of browsers? The whole idea of the World Wide Web was to make every page viewable to everyone. Angelfire has made all of their sites off-limits to a great many library and school computer users. By now, Angelfire should have realized that you can't squeeze money out of people if they can't visit your sites. In the end, Angelfire will be the big losers because no one will be able to visit any Angelfire sites, but no biggie...there won't be any Angelfire members left by then, anyways. They will lose advertisers, which will cause them to jack up their rates for upgraded accounts, which will cause them to lose paying customers, too. Their own greediness will destroy them. Obviously they just don't care....

Ugrading account
Mood:  don't ask
I'm really upset. I have had my page on angelfire for a LONG time now. I was finally ready to upgrade to a package but when i get to the page that says membership it tells me "the member name is already in use choose an alias" but doesn't have any for me to chose or let me add one. It says every alias i put is taken.. so its obviously broken for some reason cause no offense but half the stuff i put NO ONE can have. So i write their "help" people and three days later no response.. Its like they are making it IMPOSSIBLE to upgrade. so i guess they don't want my money. I was REALLY not wanting to move my whole site just to upgrade to what i want to use but it looks like i might. ANyone know how to get past this STUPID membership page? (also i tried another account with angelfire and at the end it tells me my credit card number is wrong when it is obviously correct.... money anyone? cause apparently they don't want mine.)

Angelfire/Tripod
Mood:  down
Now Playing: www.angelfire.com/fl4/dncgator
Topic: HTML Questions
My website seems to have a new window that pops up on the left side of the screen. It is a Angelfire/Tripod window. People are telling me that they are unable to access my site at all now, even if they X out this Tripod window. What on earth is this window and why am I having problems with people accessing my site after years without trouble? This window just starting poping up within the past few days. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks, Jim dncgator@mcia.net

what happened?!!
Mood:  loud
Topic: HTML Questions
I got hit with "sidebar". I can't even get into my site - www.columbiaflywayshow.com. Got a message from Angelfire that said screw you - pay us $4.95/mo if you want to see your site. isn't that called blackmail? weren't they getting their bucks with all the banners and popups my clients have to put up with? does anyone have a phone number for angelfire I can call? I can't find a number. Is there a site I can go to and file a complaint for host abuse?

Angelfire Updates
Topic: News
Angelfire pushed out some new code updates today to fix a number of bugs.

1. Fix for blogs published to the root directory. Previously, there was a problem where the blog would overridden by a default HTML page whenever you log into your site.
2. Image gallery reorganization. (May not be user-visible.)
3. Other misc fixes that I don't know about.

Please let us know if anyone notices any problems as a result of these changes. Post problems, comments, etc. in this thread.

JP

How can I change permissions to a file?
Mood:  not sure
I need to change permissions on a file I've uploaded so that it can be written to. I can't figure out how to do it, though I've tried using two different FTP programs. When I tell the FTP programs to change the permissions, one program (WS_FTP Pro) tells me that it just wasn't done, and the other (CoffeeCup Direct FTP) freezes for a minute then disconnects. Please help me!
