New Ad space

In the Talk:Main Page, I put some examples of what's happening to the non-infobox pages with the new ad space. --Ben41 (talk) 18:33, 27 January 2013 (EST)

The screenshots are from the latest Firefox. --Ben41 (talk) 19:08, 27 January 2013 (EST)

RE: 12,000th Page

That is a nice achievement! It wouldn't be possible without your hard work in building the site though :) --Markit (talk) 17:33, 27 March 2013 (EDT)

Captcha

Why am I having to go through captchas to edit pages? I'm using Firefox right now. --Ben41 (talk) 16:40, 5 April 2013 (EDT)

It's happening again. I can't edit any pages without having to go through a captcha challenge first. --Ben41 (talk) 04:38, 15 July 2013 (EDT)
Checked out just now, and it seems that captcha has gone away. --Ben41 (talk) 14:53, 15 July 2013 (EDT)
Sorry, but now it's giving me the challenge whenever I try to upload an image. Is the filename a problem? --Ben41 (talk) 23:48, 15 July 2013 (EDT)
This is about the fourth day where the captcha is coming up after every edit. There a lot of other veteran users that are having this problem as well. --Ben41 (talk) 17:53, 19 July 2013 (EDT)
Just tried to do some edits and uploads and no challenge yet. I'll post a screenshot of the captcha challenge if it occurs again. --Ben41 (talk) 13:36, 20 July 2013 (EDT)

Quotes

Any chance of bringing back the quotes section on the main page? --Ben41 (talk) 17:25, 28 July 2013 (EDT)

Infobox template

People have been asking about the gaps at the top of pages when the infobox templates are used, and I know that the gap was put in to create space for the infoboxes. However, would just putting a <br clear=all> at the top of the page be a simpler solution? This way it only leaves the necessary sized gap for the add in question, and if somebody is using an adblocker or a non default skin it only leaves a single line gap rather than 14. I have tried mocking it up on my user page and it seems to work, but as I normally use an ad-blocker I don't know if this creates other conflicts or works for everyone, so wanted to check with you. --commando552 (talk) 06:16, 11 September 2013 (EDT)

Throw it up! That's a great solution. --bunni (talk) 13:06, 11 September 2013 (EDT)

Server issues

Any ideas regarding all the editing downtime we've been having recently? We've had 12+ hour blackouts where nobody could edit, login or upload images and we're kind of wondering what's going on. Seems uploads just went down again, too. Evil Tim (talk) 16:50, 9 November 2013 (EST)

Still a slight issue in that it seems if you're logged out you can't view content pages that weren't edited today, I can get La Femme Nikita 1990 and Olympus Has Fallen but not Serpico, and as soon as I edited CoD Ghosts I could get that to load elsewhere (testing in Internet Explorer where I'm not logged in). Also the Vector skin is kind of broken, at least if you're logged out. Evil Tim (talk) 03:54, 10 November 2013 (EST)
Correction: not loading seems confined to content pages that were edited yesterday. Evil Tim (talk) 04:04, 10 November 2013 (EST)

Not loading issues seems to have cleared up, Serpico loads now. Evil Tim (talk) 14:56, 10 November 2013 (EST)

Server Issues: Thanks

Thanks for your hard work and getting the site back up in such a short time. As for drive space, is there anything we can do as admins to clear out more space? What seems to taking up the most space? --Ben41 (talk) 17:59, 14 November 2013 (EST)

Sidebar

Whatever makes the social media and categories sections vanish from the sidebar has happened again. Evil Tim (talk) 17:46, 18 November 2013 (EST)

Downtime

So what happened? Was it just a technical issue? --Funkychinaman (talk) 05:18, 16 March 2014 (EDT)

Blog

Are you guys killing the blog? --Funkychinaman (talk) 02:45, 3 April 2014 (EDT)

I don't know if killing is the right word, but it's certainly in medically induced coma at the moment... --bunni (talk) 02:50, 3 April 2014 (EDT)
I had started doing a post about Ronald Reagan, the only president with an IMFDB page, but I think my privileges changed. I couldn't upload any images. --Funkychinaman (talk) 02:55, 3 April 2014 (EDT)
That's odd. I'll fix that tomorrow. --bunni (talk) 02:55, 3 April 2014 (EDT)
Thanks. --Funkychinaman (talk) 02:57, 3 April 2014 (EDT)

Forum requests

There are a few forum requests that need your or Zackmann's attention. It looks like it's been a few months. --Funkychinaman (talk) 16:07, 10 April 2014 (EDT)

Adding to welcome discussion page.

On the "Welcome" post to new users, I would recommend adding links to the IMFDB Screencapping Guide and the IMFDB Style Guide in addition to the Rules, Standards and Principles. Links to those pages might be good to add to the main page as well.--Ben41 (talk) 04:44, 20 May 2014 (EDT)

Good idea --bunni (talk) 11:57, 21 May 2014 (EDT)

Image quality

For some reason, the image quality on some of the images on several pages (NCIS - Season 1 and NCIS: New Orleans - Season 1) are starting to look a little blurry. Take a look at the SIG-Sauer P228 section in NCIS Season 1. --Ben41 (talk) 04:07, 21 November 2014 (EST)

If you look at the fourth screenshot in the SIG-Sauer P228 of NCIS - Season 1, these look significantly lower quality than the other ones on the page. These are all HD images originally. It's the image below that doesn't look good on the TV page. If I change the thumbnail size, it then seems to correct itself. I've looked at it in both Chrome and Firefox. --Ben41 (talk) 12:24, 21 November 2014 (EST)

Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo (Michael Weatherly) fires his P228 while on the target range in "Marine Down" (S1E09).

Reported attack site

Yeah, we've got that going on again in chrome and firefox. Did we get some bad ads? Evil Tim (talk) 08:39, 5 December 2014 (EST)

Skype

Hey, got someone trying to add me on Skype, is that you or just a random name bot that happened to pull your surname out of the hat? Evil Tim (talk) 10:34, 16 December 2014 (EST)
