Could be. I am no longer a paid up member, and I see no ads. Only the official partners section to the right of the screen.Could have a problem with my ad blocker then?
I use adblocker plus.
I think it is sad that this site is slowly dying, but I think that is the fate of many forums over time. Since I am trying to cut back on my time on internet forums I probably won't be joining in on the other forums available and if (when?) this one goes belly-up that will be it for me. I shall miss the social side of the forum, and learning new tricks, but I don't post photos anyway, no matter which forum I would be on, so that won't be a loss.

That doesn't matter as long as the ad blocking software is doing it's job. I'm not a Plus member any more, as I said but I see no adverts.

There is no need to have a photobucket account, just click on the image button and follow the simple instructions

We do value members on here, and love it when people post photos on here, so please do keep sharing your photos / posting in the forum etc
So it's been more than a couple of weeks and I can't see that any improvements have been forthcoming. Any news on what may be happening or is it a case of do nothing and hope the rebellion dies a quiet death?Blythman wrote:

We are going to be looking at ways of improving Pentax User / learning from what has happened - over the next couple of weeks, but just because it's behind the scenes and being discussed doesn't mean that nothing is happening.

Must say if it's the latter then it seems to have worked.

Improvements are in the works. We are currently working on a fresh new design. We won't be moving anything around, but we will be trying to make the pages feel less cluttered and making it easier to read. We also have a few more ideas in the pipeline which we will be announcing and releasing in the coming months. Watch this space...

That was all a lot of weeks ago and not one thing has changed. On other forums I have seen requested changes be considered and put into place within 24 - 48 hours and less.
If you're holding your breath folks I'd exhale if I were you. I doubt any changes will happen anytime soon.

I think you might be the only one holding your breath. We announced that we will not be implementing a general chat forum quite a while back. More info in the following announcement:tyronet2000 wrote:

I suppose it depends on what tone you prefer to read it in. I was simply pointing judderman in the right direction of the announcement which he appeared to miss.
On a separate note, we have made some headway with the new design today. What other new features or upgrades would people like to see?
