I am unable to post a GIF..this is the link https://media1.tenor.com/images/38f8225fefd837c5875efc53187914e4/tenor.gif?itemid=12051103
I try to post it as media and it tells me "The specified URL cannot be embedded as media. "
I try to post it straight to the body and the preview just shows the link.
It worked in the past but not now. Am I doing something wrong?
It's not just this link but every GIF I have attempted to post for the last month+
I waited to say something because I know bugs are being ironed out.

Browser issues ? Doesn't seem to matter if I'm using Chrome or IE, but site is slow to load, and randomly crashes.

Edit: It actually looks like the issue is the the google ads loading...

Hmmm... just curious.... I assume you are on a laptop or desktop? If so, how old is your PC, St. Blooz? How much RAM and what kind of connection do you have? Are you running Windows? What version?

I am on a 5 year old AMD Quad Core desktop with 8GB of RAM with a plain old built in graphics card. I am connected through a slower than normal 10MBS download local cable ISP and this site flies. It usually loads within 2 seconds at most.

Anyway, being that it crashes at times when Google Ads are loading, my first thought is that the problem is likely with your PC or it having a lack of graphical resources.

Is the old/archived forum still around?

Is the old/archived forum still around?

Unfortunately no. I still have the database archived, but it got really messed up during the migration to the new servers due to parts of it being messed up during transfer. Unfortunately I didn't notice it until days later when I tried to go live with it and had already cancelled the old servers, so I couldn't go back and try to get a clean transfer. I plan to try to go through it and fix it when I have some free time, but I spent a day on it and it was really messed up. So I am not sure that I will be able to do so.

Good morning my friend !

I believe it may be a connection issue related to my work internet trying to block the google ads.

Ohhhh! So... do you have a smart phone or tablet that you can pull out at work without getting in trouble? The site is very mobile friendly.

Ha ! I've always got a backup plan in place !

I've also emailed my IT admin to see if they can help.

Okay, site looks different today... but it's also working way better (it's really been trying these last two weeks or so).

It’s because I finally turned off the black & gold style. It was just way too buggy. You probably defaulted to the SR Grey style. We have the default SR Grey and alternatively the SR black Styles now to choose from. Both work great.

Thanks, never thought of toggling it to a different style.

How did i end up in this thread?

 

[Black&Gold Knight]

Not really an issue but I was wondering if you have any Saints Avatars I can choose on the site? How is the best way to add one if none available?

Thanks.
