    Yes, eventually, but that may take longer than most because I have to install that old software from scratch. Sorry, I will add to status list though. Thanks.

    Hey Rob, when I tried the use the "supersize" picture feature in FerrariAds, I get the same size picture in its own little window.
    Thanks for all your hard work:)

    Cheers, Hank

    I think it should work now for all new ads. The supersize will show up to 1200 pixels if the original upload is 1200 or more. Otherwise the supersize will be the size of the original upload. Thanks.

    Rob,
    I see that ferrariads is now back up. Are all the "old" ads gone forever? I would like to restore ours if possible.

    Sorry Chris & Brian,

    Problem was I had started with that banner software long time ago and kept trying to patch and upgrade, but was never working just right. I wanted to start from scratch with new server to eliminate the problems.

    Best I might be able to do is get you access to the old ads so you can copy and paste.

    Is it common for ALL of my icons/smilies to e little red X's and for the thread name to be in the middle of the screen?

    No, that would be an issue on your end, I'm not sure what though. Ad or pop-up blocker maybe. Are you on a Mac, which browser?

    The old FerrariChat.com archives (pre 2003) are available again under Search - Old FerrariChat.com. Sorry for the delay. Thanks.
