A lot of this stuff needs a proper web developer, and they cost money. As only approx 4% of people who sell stuff through the forums bother to donate a percentage of their profits, we are stuck with an empty spending pot at the moment

Hi Dave. Someone hacked the front page of the site a few days ago but it's all been cleaned up. I expect the 'delete cache & cookies' routine should help as this is the only report of an anti-virus being triggered that we have.

[quote name='ted_manzie' timestamp='1353314629' post='1873408'] the breadcrumb thing has changed - used to say for example [b]Basschat / Basschat Market Place / Basses For Sale[/b] now says [b]Basschat / / / Basses For Sale[/b] so you can't skip back to the general market place? [/quote] Fixed

The donate button will be back ASAP!!

It does looks a bit blurred, but I have had 6 pints of 8.5% scrumpy. Next week we're going to try and convert everything into 3D.

You could always spend the forum downtime doing some practise?

1. Open your post for editing - or do it when posting! 2. Then select 'use full editor' 3. Where it says 'attach files' - click on 'choose files' 4. That will take you to your PC so you can click on which file to attach - you can only upload one at a time. 5. When it's uploaded - click on 'attach this file' Repeat the process from step 3 for each photo. If you have the photos hosted on something like photobucket or flickr: 1. Open your post for editing 2. Select the little green box below the smiley icon which reveals 'image' when you hover your cursor over it - click it 3. Paste the URL of your photo file in the pop-up box Repeat the process from step 2 for each image. Cheers

[quote name='Hamster' timestamp='1350254944' post='1836578'] I will ask our trained monkey to have a look at this [/quote] [quote name='cloudburst' timestamp='1352416455' post='1862923'] Yea, you're right silldx. You've a fairly valid point. Just a bit frustrating that there's no response - even to tell us no dice. It is a great forum, and I do appreciate the effort the mods and admins put in. But don't forget we ALL put quite a lot of time and effort into it. CB [/quote] This is on the list of things to add. I have no idea of when it will be done. It is a low priority and there are more important issues and improvements to make at the moment. This site costs money to run, maintain and improve. Web developers cost a lot of money, and so a lot of work is done as favours as we can't afford to pay someone the going rate. Please feel free to make a contribution

Right. I'm back in wet UK from a gloriously sunny and beautiful Italy! The money will be divided: 1. - Cancer Research - £250 2. - Youth Music - £60 3. - Disabled People Against Cuts - £50 Many thanks again to all those who contributed to another enjoyable day. Colin

[quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1350314070' post='1837155'] Did you decide to go with Proportional Representation, Colin, or are you sticking with First Past The Post? [/quote] It's got to be PR, as the FPTP system suggests a 'winner takes all' scenario - which is clearly not the case here!

I will ask our trained monkey to have a look at this

9 more votes to come in before all attendees have voted. I can either wait until all have voted (which might be a long wait!) or close the poll on Wednesday 17th evening before I go away for a short break, or close it at noon on Sunday 28th after I get home.

[quote name='bluejay' timestamp='1349989848' post='1833352'] I for one fully trust you, Colin, and I'm sure everybody else here does Counting down to the next bash! [/quote] Thanks Sylvia If there's a will to have two South East Bashes a year, I'm sure we could do something in March/April??

I've put up a thread to let you attenders decide where the profits go - [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/189117-south-east-bass-bash-no6-charity-poll/"]http://basschat.co.u...6-charity-poll/[/url] As always, the accounts for the bash are open for inspection. If you want to see them, they'll be at the next South East Bash, or if you can't wait until then you can come around to my house and have a look at them over a cup of tea!

Hi all This year we made an overall profit of £360. Several suggestions have been made about who to give the proceeds to and the 3 chosen charities this year will each receive a donation according to the poll. Whoever comes out with the most votes will receive £250 (more tax efficient!), second most popular will get £60 and third will get £50 donation. Please only vote if you attended or contributed to the Bash, as it was all of you who gave the money. Being an Admin, I can see who casts a vote - so if you vote but didn't donate by attending (or sending in a cash gift) I will delete the vote. Simples. Cheers Colin & Nik

I also just [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]bought a Shure PSM200 from Jake - another slick and straightforward purchase - Cheers![/font][/color]

I bought a pair of Triple Fi IEM's off Andy - slick & straightforward purchase - Cheers!

Just a thought - is it something to do with the way the SQL search code 'helper' interacts with the Sphinx?
