Oh my. No,no, no....I did not for a minute think you were telling lies Armorbeast, but rather that I had overlooked a link that I had sent out and wanted to get a copy of it. Sorry for the confusion. I will do my best to clarify the thing about the cookies. While you may have your cookies enabled, it appears to me that the person that sent you the link, did not. It also appears that the person that sent you the link, never closed that session. If they left that session open (which some people do), and don't enable cookies, and send people links with their session ids and keys, then yes, this is possible. That is why we are looking at the option of requiring cookies be enabled when logging into Renderosity. This would indeed end this problem. (Not according to the programmers, but according to the latest industry research on the matter.) But, the down-side is it would create another uproar that we changed something and there will be a few people that don't want cookies. We are weighing the options and appreciate the insight and information being shared with us. Best wishes, LillianH
