Brent is the man behind the curtain.

That analogy may be closer to reality...... but then I'm from Kansas, so the Wizard of Oz reference and the ruby slippers are close to home here.

Yep; me too!

But I just click on "What's New?" and I'm in!

.

I made some changes...Is it working for you guys now?

As for what a contributor means...well, it's really a donation system. Some may want to contribute more than others, but everything is appreciated. I don't expect money from anyone and people should not feel obligated to contribute. If you want to you can and if you don't want to, then don't. Again, it's all appreciated.

Now, I do try to add a little bit of a bonus for folks, but this is not really what it's all about. Besides the really cool trophy , here's what you get.

As for what you get:
* PM's 1500 vs. 70
* Profile pic can be 300x300 vs. 100x100
* Avatar can be slightly bigger at 150x150 instead of 125x125
* User Album pics can by 1000x1000 vs. 600x600
* Number of Album pics can bee 300 vs. 100
* 150mb of disk space for photos in the gallery instead of 20mb

Hope this clears things up a bit.

after reading the above post, I scrolled up and clicked the forum tab. I instantly recieved the permission warning.

I didn't realize those were eliminated with a "contributor status". I always get them on Monday only.

WheneverI click Forum tab I get this message too:
stovens, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:
1.Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
2.If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

But if you click it a second time, while that message is showing, doesn't it then go right through to the home page? Does for me....

Yes it does. So I just ignore it, but figured maybe this would help Brett trouble shoot.
