Joggie,
I think their might be something amiss with your most recent upload. I've twice tried to post a comment but it won't take.
Best regards, Chris


Peter Houtmeyers   {K:3519} 9/7/2005
Hi Joggie, i have tried to give comment on your latest 2 photo's.....but i always get a error message. Your insect photo is really sharp and has a very clean background. I think this could be a small deer-fly.......but i could be wrong.


Mohamed Banna   {K:34210} 9/7/2005

Hi Chris - thanks for telling me. I have re-uploaded the fly - could you try and see if it will work now! Thanks!
Joggie


Joggie van Staden   {K:41251} 9/7/2005
Hi Peter - thanks for telling me. I have re-uploaded the fly - could you try and see if it will work now! Thanks!

Peter Houtmeyers   {K:3519} 9/7/2005
This is the error message that keeps popping up when i post a comment on your latest photo's......"No thread ID or Forum ID specified". I am sure the error is not caused by you because the photo is visible and the info also. I guess the new Usefilm server is not perfect yet .


Chris Spracklen   {K:32552} 9/7/2005
I've just tried again, Joggie, and it still doesn't want to know!!
I hope you soon get it sorted!
Best regards, Chris


Joggie van Staden   {K:41251} 9/7/2005
Thanks Peter - will follow it up - got the same message when I tried to comment on another users photo earlier today.


Joggie van Staden   {K:41251} 9/7/2005
Thanks Chris - Im following it up.
Joggie


Petal Wijnen   {K:47829} 9/7/2005
No thread ID or forum ID specified... that's the error message we get as soon as we hit the 'add comment' button.....

So desperate times call for desperate meassures... ;-D!!!!
Voila my comment on 'Bright eyes'....:

Great macro of this really 'creepy crawler' of UFO... ;-D!!! Super DOF, clarity and detail, great colors and excellent crop and composition... well done!!! Well it's your second try, but times 2 for me... LOL!!!


Riny  Koopman   {K:19998} 9/7/2005
Hallo Joggie waarom heb jij die mooie bloemen foto van de site gehaald?? Ik zag het voor bij komen op use en ik was niet bij machte om direct te reageren!! Hoop dat je als nog op de site plaatst.....

My regards dear friend.
Riny


Joggie van Staden   {K:41251} 9/7/2005
Hallo Riny - the problem with the comments on site was with my last uploads - others tried to post comments and got error messages (see above). I therefore removed them and will post them anew once the problem with the server is sorted out. Take care.
Joggie
