All you need to do is go to the main page, and log in there. As long as you don't log out you will always stay logged in.

Yes. I said in the announcement we were working to rectify that.

Well then that particular image is too big. You'd probably get the same message on eastern.

If you would like to use our attachment system the maximum image size is 2mb. That is more than enough and Eastern has the same 2mb restriction. If your image is larger, use ImageShack or TinyPic.

yea that may be the problem, but for some reason tinypic even made my pic huge. Go look it the off topic thread I started

Hey Brett, how come my weatherunderground weather station isn't showing up in my signature? Any way to fix it?

Thanks!

What you put into your signature is not an image. It is a Flash file, which we do not allow and didn't allow on the old board either.

The one you put in for me wasn't working so I tried that one which didn't work either. How can I get it to work?

Also, how do I adjust my time settings? I am about 6 hours off right now, tried to find a place to set my time zone but maybe it's universal to the site? Do I need to adjust anything?

Thanks

Which one is that? You mean like another town? Or your own personal weather station?

The format was different. It was one of the other styles, had more precise temperature (tenth of degrees).

If you are still having problems with your time, make sure you are using Eastern time with automatic DST enabled.

To check this, go to your User CP (My Controls) and select Board Settings on the left.

Please forgive me for overlooking that possibility while trying to keep a weather board up and running.

Seriosly, do you really think if I knew what the problem was I would have kept it to myself?

I actually still do, I've done this before and it never did this...do I have to resize the picture first? It's just like all of the other pictures that I have done in the past.

Upload your picture to a site like tinypic.com or imageshack.us and then enter the direct link to the image into the online avatar image field in your Avatar Settings.

Let me know if you need anything else. happy.png

Hello. You need to change it here and follow the directions: http://www.nycmetroweather.com/forums/inde...rCP&CODE=08. Let me know if it still doesn't work; I can do it manually.
