My computer: Mac, OSX, Safari browser. I tried using IE and still no luck. I allowed pop ups in both browsers. Finally I went to a PC (ugh!) using IE and I was successful. The thing is this, I never used to have this problem, I was able to upload to the galleries before... so why not now? What has changed? There are plenty of Mac users, and more every day, preventing us from fully using the site is not a good thing. I've never run into this problem on any other forum, just here. _________________ Leo 1986 El Camino 1997 Lincoln Mark VIII LSC "Randy! He drives an El Freakin' Camino!

I have not tried to upload photos to the galleries. My El Camino is nothing special as far as custom features, just a nice looking, well maintained Elky with a color-matched topper. And I like my Mac.

Try using both the basic Mac browser and if it doesn't work IE or some other browser. It will help to determine if it is a Mac problem or if it is Leo's machine. thanks _________________ '82 El Camino with an LT1 from a 95 Impala SS ECC Member #002 Come over to the dark side, we have cookies!!

Got the same response Sorry," this Module isn't active!". Found that I had to log in again on IE and Firefox. Did not make any difference, still got the"Sorry, this Module isn't active!". I feel like some sort of an unwanted stepchild or something. Hope something can be done to fix this....Doug _________________ 85 El Camino 305, TH350, K&N, dual exhausts 87 El Camino 305, 2004R, K&N, dual exhausts 1964-1/2 Mustang conv, 260 V8, dual exhausts 2002 Jaguar XJ8, 2000 Harley Road King Lakewood, CO Back to top Poltergeist Gallery Administrator Necoa #: 478 Location: 17(S.CA,S.NV) Joined: Oct 10, 2002 Posts: 1637 Year: 1982 Model: El Camino Posted: Sun Sep 16, 2007 4:41 pm    Post subject: So you were not able to create a gallery correct? _________________ '82 El Camino with an LT1 from a 95 Impala SS ECC Member #002 Come over to the dark side, we have cookies!!

I also just tried to create a new gallery in the 5th Gens and I got the inactive module warning. You need to check back to see what settings may have been changed since this is a fairly new problem. In the past I had no problem adding pictures to the galleries. By the way, uploading pictures into the forums works fine. _________________ Leo 1986 El Camino 1997 Lincoln Mark VIII LSC "Randy!

Have you checked to see what software upgrades have been done to your Mac to see what could be causing the problem?? Being able to link pictures to the forum has absolutely nothing to do with the problems that your Macs are having. I realize it's easy to blame the site but it may not always the case. _________________ '82 El Camino with an LT1 from a 95 Impala SS ECC Member #002 Come over to the dark side, we have cookies!!

Because my Elkie is nothing special as far as custom features. So uploading pictures to the gallery is no biggie for me anyway. The forums are no problem, works with my Mac and photobucket. Still seems like a weird problem, kind of like some Windows videos won't play on a Mac. Anyway, thanks for looking into it.....Doug _________________ 85 El Camino 305, TH350, K&N, dual exhausts 87 El Camino 305, 2004R, K&N, dual exhausts 1964-1/2 Mustang conv, 260 V8, dual exhausts 2002 Jaguar XJ8, 2000 Harley Road King Lakewood, CO Back to top Poltergeist Gallery Administrator Necoa #: 478 Location: 17(S.CA,S.NV) Joined: Oct 10, 2002 Posts: 1637 Year: 1982 Model: El Camino Posted: Sun Sep 16, 2007 11:36 pm    Post subject: You wrong in that you feel that your El Camino is not special, everyone of them is special. And there should be no reason why you should not be able to create a gallery. But since I don't own a Mac it limits what I can do to test and troubleshoot. _________________ '82 El Camino with an LT1 from a 95 Impala SS ECC Member #002 Come over to the dark side, we have cookies!!

Being able to link pictures to the forum has absolutely nothing to do with the problems that your Macs are having. I realize it's easy to blame the site but it may not always the case. I have to strongly disagree with this. There has to be something within the forum software or setting that is causing the problem because nowhere else on the internet, no other forum, no other web site, exhibits this problem. This is the only place that appears to exhibit a problem with Macs in this manner. I'll try and do some searching online to see if other forums have the problem, especially others that use this software. Also, I don't think ECC is running the latest most up to date version of phBB. _________________ Leo 1986 El Camino 1997 Lincoln Mark VIII LSC "Randy! He drives an El Freakin' Camino!

It is an addon software. It is the same version that the site has always run. We cannot upgrade to the latest version because the latest version does not have voting function. So once again nothing has been changed with the gallery. Let me know if you find anything that might help to figure it out. _________________ '82 El Camino with an LT1 from a 95 Impala SS ECC Member #002 Come over to the dark side, we have cookies!!

Gallery is installed as a module. You need to enable this as a phpNuke admin. Gallery itself is not causing the problem." _________________ Leo 1986 El Camino 1997 Lincoln Mark VIII LSC "Randy!
