Well, maybe it was a weird cache thing on my end? I go back to the thread now and the image shows up as it should. Maybe disregard?

Albums work for me on Firefox 68 on Android 10, but they no longer show up on Tapatalk. Which isn't a big deal, because the main web site is now completely usable on mobile!

Maybe it's an iPhone thing?

Make sure Tapatalk is updated. Dales pics show up for me on Tapatalk just fine.

Dale, give me a link to that page. What I’m seeing looks more like a timeout issue in your end but I can check it out

Yeah when we changed, the Tapatalk add-on has to then be updated and it changes some things. It can causes those issues so wiping or updating it usually fixes it. Shouldn’t be an issue again though.

Dale, I found the thread and everything is loading well. Might want to see what kind of speed your internet is putting out. We are able to upload much better quality pics now and that can take a lot of data/download

Would there be a way to change the color of quotes (maybe a light gray?), so they look different than the actual reply post?

on "new oil" or "used oil"? you cant change the color much or it washes out in the background but im curious what you are seeing?

Um, I think its "new oil". When using tapatalk, quotes like what you just did, show up in a light gray box, separating it from your reply. If I were on my computer, the quote would be the same color as the background and rest of post, making it difficult to differentiate it from the reply.

Is anyone else experiencing this one? I've seen it a number of times now, usually only the first post of the page and the signature and second post overlap


Oh, also, super minor, and maybe it's more of my phone than the site... auto capitalization isn't working like you'd expect, mainly when you press enter to start a new "paragraph" the cursor jumps oddly and then doesn't capitalize.

Oh settle down sparky .

Are you trying to upload them to the showcase or in the actual thread the truck is for sale in? what size are you resizing too? they have to be under 2 Meg's to upload. There may be a different limit on the showcase I’ve missed.

EDIT, limits are the same as normal posts. let me know what you have going on sean.

Tom has been working over time moving newbie threads around because they have a hard time finding the proper threads to post in. ive made some changes/renditions to try to help that (no way to eliminate it, can only lead a horse to water). Biggest change you may see is the Fun Zone has been moved down on the forum page. new guys are quick to just pick the first general area to post in and fun zone is easy pickins. Its now much farther down under the techincal stuff.

Dont worry, nothing has been deleted or disposed of and the only areas combined are the TSB's specs and DIY sections. Ive also added the LM2 to its own section with the colorado stuff and changed naming to fit it all.

Still working on the calc stuff in its own section.

I think this is the second time I've seen this over a couple week period. Not a huge deal because a refresh/reload brings the site up. Just an FYI

I got that yesterday for the first time in a while. Took maybe 10 minutes and several refresh's for the site to return
