Is everyones Profile jacked? Mine is gone! After that upgrade I wasnt able to login for Weeks. I still cant Login into my old profile. I contacted Ryan and he made a few attempts to help and then never got back to me. I tried to make a new profile and I couldnt do that either cuz the register page was jacked. Finally I was able to make a new profile. So I had to make up this one just to get back in.WTF! WEEKS I TELL YOU! I saw The TF Animated and had so much to say and I couldnt log on! So I guess this is my new Profile and I'm stating over! Good thing I was still relativly new to Siebertron with only 30 posts and still a mini-con. But you better beleive I'm going to Post As much as I can to catch up! GEEZ! For those of who may not remember my old profile which is all of you, I was "Starscream the Mighty", Now I'm "NiteStar".
GEEZ!!! WTF! Sorry but that was really irritaing for weeks there.What happened to the Pic upload for our Profile.WHat HAppened in general? Anyone else have this Problem?

wow. That's alot of words. They updated the site dude. People hate it. There is a whole thread about it

WOW 55 Veiws and only 1 response? I guess was one of the only ones that this happened to. I know they updated the site but at what expense? I was starting to like my old profile and name. Now I cant even upload a picture thats more than 10kb. As if I needed to figure out in my life how to make a jpeg smaller than 10kb. So far I can only get it to 16kb. WHat Thread is everyone discussing the updated site at?

Nope, it wasnt just you, everyone lost everything. :-(

But hey, revamps give you an incentive to update stuff, not that I did.

I think there was a thread in the General Discussion, but it might have died now... Dunno how to resize something as large as a sig though, someone in the Kitbash section should be able to help.

You know, I am actually no help at all...

I know , Im trying to see it as .......
After The Websites Update and all information was lost. I was floating around in space with no profile. Then I came across the Head of Unicron. I asked him to help me Get my old Profile back. So we struck deal. I help him if he helps me and in-turn he reformed me from Starscream "The Mighty" into "NiteStar". Then when he asked me to fullfill my end of the Bargain. I said "DO IT YOURSELF! AHH HAHHHH AHH!" Then Transformed and Took off!
:twisted:

Wow, no wonder the Head of Unicron was so ticked off :shock:

I mean, he really was TICKED.

I didn't lose too much, as I didn't have much to begin with, but I don't like the new format either. Mostly because I can't read the Transformer Mosaics as they are too big in such a little space, so half of it gets chopped off.

I had this problem also. My solution was to bring the photo into Paint and resample it and save it. It won't show that it has been reduced till you exit the program and look at the details.

It does that to me as well....I just go to DeviantArt and find em there.

yeah alot of the pics and stuff I've seen lately are half chopped off. I guess that explains it.

I didn't notice any post count loss or major problems, except having to reload my avatar and I have noticed the picture problem.

I just am not enjoying this site as much as I used to, so I don't come here as much. I can't pinpoint a major specific reason why. I have actually gone over to TFW2005 and allspark.com much more often than I used to.

I hope that things improve here. I'll still be around, but not nearly as much until the forums become easier to read and more visually appealing.

That's my way of doing it too.

I had to reload everything but I did not lose too many posts. Reloading my profile was annoying but not difficult.

by **Pyrostrata** » Mon Jan 07, 2008 1:18 am

I lost quite a bit in the upgrade myself...profile, avatar and about 300 posts...but it was really no big deal..it happens..I just remade everything, and just went back to posting, business as usual!

by **NiteStar** » Mon Jan 07, 2008 4:30 am

YEah guys but my old profile for me is Gone. I see it still on here but I cant get back into it. It says that that email and username is not found but sure enough it is here. I wish I could either delete or have it back. Its wasting space. :MAD:
