Hi Gene.

I hope you can help me. I am trying to upload a video, but it seems that the file is too large (155MB). Is there a way to upload it anyway? Will there be a posibility (in the near future) to upload larger files than 100MB?

Thanx!

Hi Gene
I hope you had a MERRY CHRISTMAS and I wish you great year ahead in 2010. Thanks for the christmas message and your advice on the monitoring of new members.

I would like to seek your advice in respect of the discussion we have been having on the health issues we are combating in our breed. Is it feasible for us to have a Health Section (not a discussion forum) but just a place to put information regarding health issues affecting the dogs?

Idea would be to have a database of health concerns. Information entered would perhaps contain the following:
Pedigree Name; Sex; DOB: (Sire/Dam);Country Bred; Details/Decription of Health Problem.

This would be a valuable resource for us as we move forward towards seeking assistance and support for research for DNA testing on some of the terrible health problems looming over our breed at the moment. (May also need to have whether dog is alive or deceased) if follow-up wanted?

I would be interested to seek your thoughts on this type of section on ES.

Hi Gene,
your site is going from strength to strength and the discussions on the forum are great oportuities to share opinions. I wonder though if you could possible change the setting to show more that just three discussions at one time? It seems unfortunate that as soon as a discussion disappears from the top three, it no longer gets looked at.

Now to wish you a very HAPPY NEW YEAR and enjoy your redheads and the success of this site;-))

glad you know about it, but i am not sure that you should bear all the costs?? most of all because it is not the cheapest one we need because of all the photos. maybe you should put it in a blog and i am sure many people would be willing to send some money to support the site. what do you think?

Hi Gene,

Thank-you for a great site. It has been wonderful being part of it since last year when I first joined. Great discussions and so informative and great sharing moment of these very special red dogs. I just noticed on your page that the site isn't free, so a special thank-you for maintaining the costs. Don't hesitate to ask if you want some donations towards the cost.

Just noticed today that the music has disappeared from the pages. No big deal, just wondering if you know about it and whether it was disabled for the site?

Hope you are having a great day. cheers from downunder

Hello Gene

I have received an email via ES camera corner group from a new member, Vicky Lake, she gives a link which I think is selling something but I have not opened it. She has joined a lot of groups so may be targeting all in those groups. May be nothing, but thought you should know.

Best wishes

Rosie

Hello Gene,

I don't know if you are the person I should talk to but here goes. We were hit by lightning in January which blew up everything in my house...of course the computer. When I finally managed to get back on line 4 weeks later I found that I was not getting an alert on my personal email when I had responded/commented on ES. I don't know if this is my personal settings or something I have to re-set on ES.

Hope you can help.

Hi Gene

Last year I joined ES with an account in the name of Jessica Peter's.

A little while later I managed to create another one in the name of jessica emma peter's. I have never been able to access that account and wondered if you could delete it for me.

thanks, it's a fabulous website

Hey Gene, Nadine Bonjean told me that perhaps you can help me. In the month of march 2011 suddenly all the photos disappeared. Than I tried to open this site with explorer and mozilla firefox, but nothing helped me to see the photos again. Even on my own page.
Just can read the comments. It's a shame because the site is not the same anymore without the photos of our beautiful dogs.
I hope you can help me, thank you very much

Hi Gene,

How are you? I wonder if you could have a look at some of the problems.....some of my friends are trying to send me private messages and they cannot......apparently there is a x next to my name on their pages? Do we need to change some settings?

Jun 7, 2011
Dee Rance

Thanks for that...it seems I am not the only one...so hears hoping that it will be resolved soon...
Thanks again Dee and the gang

Thank you Gene. I am on Firefox so perhaps the others are not and that is where the problem occur. But why should it happen now after all these years?
