I'm always wondering....and about more than just ebots.

I just looked at Turtle's gallery and she has posted images and I haven't gotten ebots on them...I added a few other people to my favorite list to see if they come through. 

Uniconst, I was wondering the same thing but didn't want to ask about the email address thing.  Logical reason though for sure.

Here, here with the Turtle!!!  I'm the same way with her!!!

I get NO ebots when any of them upload to the gallery.  So, that doesn't appear to be working at all.

I also created a signature.  I don't see that working either.  I enter it, click Save Changes, and what I've keyed in disappears which is just my name and web page link

I still have problems myself - I find unless I go to the person's gallery myself - I might miss something.  I honestly don't have the time to keep checking galleries of the people's work I follow and I'm sure most people here would agree with that statement.

Sporadic and unpredictable - those are the words for what's going on here....JMO

I'm sorry - I know how frustrating webpage stuff can be first hand - can't ya just hit the "back" button? 

I just posted my first image in awhile and it was honestly a pain to do the credits.  =o(

I also don't understand what's up with the ebot thing.  (scratches head)

Good luck and thank you!

I get them some times and other times not - I did get about 15 ebots on a MP product that was added the other day.  I really hate not having the consistency of getting and ebot when a gallery comment has been posted or a favorite artist. 

The whole feel of the gallery page is well - gross.  I don't like it and wish it had other options - IMO, it's nobody business what I have recently viewed - I have looked for a way to turn this off and don't see it.  There are just way too much words and not enough focus on the quality of the RENDERS that the artists post here.

My attitude is getting like Doc's - if you guys aren't interested in what we post here and that WE want to view it a certain way - then why continue to bother?

I just don't get why a survery wasn't done PRIOR to making such drastic changes to a site like this.

I agree with Lyne -- to go into detail about how to remove watermarks was not the point of this thread. I feel sorry for what happened to not only this artist but others that I know here at RR as well. I think we all work hard on our work and I feel to steal one's art is one thing but the identity too? PLEASE. That's going WAY too far -- I would have that person on a plate. Kitten -- good for you for standing up for what was right -- they shouldn't have banned you for telling the truth. That woman seriously needs professional help if she feels the need to not only steal your artwork but your personality as well. Heaven help her. Keep on posting Val, we've got your back! I think as a community we can all "look out" for each other and help each other out!

Wow, am I ever impressed with this one -- good ideas here! Thanks for telling me, Carolly. Runs off to render and play and play.......

mateo_sancarlos, in your opinion, do you think Spamcop is legit with the way it does business? Do you see this as more of an "international" problem rather than just our "local" (i.e. USA) government not having good enough laws to go after the "bad guys" that do this?

A brilliant method of notification I must say Excuse me for not making my point more clear.....we learn of organ availability via... phone email fax pagers message boards as well as surgeons giving out their own personal numbers and ways of reaching them... The point I was trying to make is that we use email as a medium not as a point of "ADVERTISING" for organs. So much for that. Point being, Armorbeast is right -- the small guy and the large guy all get the wrong end of the stick when it comes to being blacklisted....to the anti spam program you are nothing more than a number.

Thus,through no action or fault they get blacklisted...then in a crucial moment when they rely heavily upon their computer to communicate with another person they find that this communication is a one way deal~why,because they were just added to the blacklist in the middle of their discussion. Couldn't have said it better myself......

FYI -- a high percentage of hospitals and surgeons that I have worked for and still work with use an email network to see what organs and tissue are available for immediate transplants. It is a USA wide organization and enables us to better serve our patients. It is NOT ADVERTISTING. It is making other's aware of what tissue is available for transplant via email. If our server gets blacklisted as spam -- then we don't get emails regarding tissue/organs that are available. Wake up and smell the coffee -- we don't "advertise" -- we EMAIL AVAILABILITY. Totally different IMO.

you don't seem to care about how abusive that process is and you won't until a hospital that sends out its own online advertisement gets blacklisted and someone dies as a result. Armorbeast, speaking as someone who has directly worked on a transplant team for over 25 years....I would like to say that you are entirely correct that it won't be long if it hasn't happened already -- when our physicians say to a family member -- sorry, there is no tissue or organ available for your loved one and have it be a result of a computer/ISP/spam glitch. Eliza, what would answer be if you were on the receiving end of that comment and it was your loved one? Would it be the responsibility of the ISP, the spamcop or the user of the ISP? Think about it.

You can't stop spam anymore than you can legally stop businesses from putting sales papers in your PO Box,its legal Eliza so you have to fight it legally and not take the law into your own hands or else you become as bad or worse than the problem itself! Stands up and applaudes Armorbeast. Good post, man! So, true, you don't like what's in the mail -- you throw it out. Or, you can restuff the usually prepaid envelope with junk and send it back to them. They have to pay the postage to get their own junk back. Doesn't get you off the list but it gets a point across. I treat junk email like junk regular mail -- either hit the delete button or hit the trash can. Same thing. Funny thing -- you look at the trashcan outside our mail area on Thursday -- it's OVER FLOWING with ads and flyers. When will the senders get the hint? Maybe when we as CONSUMERS say something.

I'm just commenting on the fact that I fail to see the logic in your comments. Trust me, takes a lot to upset me and if you had -- you'd know it.
