Btw, this is "Suggestions" Forum. If you have something to suggest to Chris you can post here. A question like this should not be posted here. You can ask this even in the Lounge. It doesn't hurt

Here or an email to the webmaster. At least here, you got a crack at it. Besides, i hear Chris is always up for more stress-testing Outlook.
The Lounge is generally not the best place for such questions.

His initial post looked as if he's just asking how to change his settings. He didn't explain that he had tried to update it thrice. So I thought he needs a *treatment* in the lounge for asking such a trivial question. But I was really sorry then when he explained that he tried to update it thrice. .

I think it would be a good idea to create a new forum about the CLR. The .NET Framework forum sort of fits the category but I think that one should be for the FCL and BCL. The CLR deserves its own space.

hi i was visiting some image hosting site (hi5.com) there (in there member profile display area ) they use link of images from all over the web to add a picture and instead of copying that image from there they just pass the link
i was thinking that same can be done in our message boards also
just by
<img src="url" >
and it will not cost code project`s space
if this thing is enabled then it would be more easy to explain our questions
and yes also like there in rediffmail.com the images are by default disabled and user have option to view images because it is not feasible for every user to see images (bandwidth limitations)
but this can help a lot
yes the work of code project staff will increase of monitoring images but they can block image posting of the user who just break the rules

I think you are new to CP. You will soon learn why it is not allowed here.  . And nobody recommends it too.

<img> is purposely disabled. You can use an image hosting site like tinypic.com to host the picture, and put a link in your post to the hosted copy.

Agreed, and I won't follow any blind links to hosting sites without reading replies. I refuse to risk trouble with IS/HR because some moron linked to something obscene and I followed the link. Embed images and that protection is lost, and i'll be gone.

Currently you have special icons for supporters, site builders, staff etc.
How about a special icon for members who have posted an article within the last 30 days? E.g. a little star on the head or something..

The new codeproject layout looks really messy in FireFox but fine in Internet Explorer. I have some screenshots if you'd like to see them.
|

Please email me (chris at codeproject dot com) the screenshots as well as the browser and OS version
cheers,

I think, this is recently introduced feature. And appreciate it, to stop abusing the site.
But the scenario happens with me is, It gives same IP message, from m/c's within organization(and obviously).
I do feel, CP is accessed across organization. Can something done regarding this ?
|
|
|
|
|
actually, i felt that the message was not totally right. it tells me for example that someone at my ip already voted that post, even if i'm not at the same place (and being sure some where i am, no one could have done sucha vote, because at my GF's, no one does interrest to IT), but the fact is that I did already vote that post.

Its ok, if you are accessing CP from home. If i'm using it from my workplace, there are n terminals in my organization having same IP address to external world(through proxy ofcourse). In that case, only one person from organization can vote for message. Though , everbody is accessing site, from their terminal.

BTW, you are right about message content. I just wanted to put point here.

You got him wrong Toxcct. It's not about re-voting. It's about the proxy. Same happens here, Hundreds from my organization connect to the internet through the same proxy. So everybody would have the same IP when the connect to the Internet and here comes the problem. You will not be able to vote someone of who's also from the same company. I've seen it, and btw that's how I identify if they are from my company  . But I dont know how Chris is gonna address this, I really felt pity on him as he is already flooded with a zillion tasks. So I never raised this issue to him.

hehe.. anyway now it gets his attention
|
|
|
|

the restriction can be laid on the user id
first fact -- user have multiple ids
second fact -- i have only one id but have access to more than 10 ip addresses if i wanna do a multiple voting i can do that
voting is a thing that a user is going to do once at most until the user have some personal interest or a crack in head
(and in both conditions you cant stop him )
