Dave; I'm getting an error when I try to set my e-mail notifications.
"Please ensure your username is alphanumeric."

Can you email me a screenshot of what you're getting to gobig@wakeworld.com? Thanks!

I sent something. It's not quite a screenshot but you can see the error message in there.

I on;y get a red 'x' rather than pictures. What I'm I missing? Thanks.

We're still uploading some pics at this time. Monday is the official roll out date. Let me know if they are still missing tomorrow.

drop downs are really annoying

What is the points store all about?

No way to turn off the menus. I did a lot of thinking and research before I came up with the menu scheme and I'm confident that it's the best way to handle a site with this much content. I know they're going to take some getting used to and I know some people are dead set agains pull-downs no matter what, but I firmly believe they are the best solution for this site. I modeled them after the menus on NFL.com, which I think are fantastic.

I do have a request in to increase the delay between the time your mouse goes over the menu and the drop-down activates. That will cut down on some of the erroneous menu drops.

how 'bout decreasing the width, limiting it to the width of that particular section of the menu (i.e., the width of pics/videos)?

I went with the full width because it makes the menu easier to use because it doesn't shut down on you when you fail to navigate perfectly down the narrow submenu with your mouse. So I did consider that, but decided to go with the NFL.com style instead.

So far so good. I'm not sure if this is where I should post this, but how about adding a new sarcastic icon.

I'm getting a little irritated. I'm trying to update my profile, and add an album and pictures. 1st of all, I feel like I have to enter my email and password after every step. Do I have have some setting wrong, or is this how difficult it's really going to be. 2nd, I keep trying to change my profile. I can get in and change it. Then I hit save(or whatever). When I go back to check, after re-entering my password of course, nothing changed. 3rd, I can't make a picture album. I can enter my info, but it won't save. And I sure can't upload any pic's. I can't even find the place to do it. 4th, Why can't I add anything but board and bindings? What about surf boards, and hydofoils?

Please help. I want to contribute more to the new Wakeworld then just some text in the forum.

Mcdye, What are IE temp files? I think I might be having the same problem you had,

Joesell, sorry for the troubles. I have no idea why you would have to keep logging in. Make sure your cookies on in your browser and I would definitely try deleting your temporary Internet files by going to Tools, Internet Options, General tab, Browsing history and click the Delete button. I'd also reboot your computer. Let me know how it goes. You certainly shouldn't have to keep logging in like that.

As far as boards go, you can enter an ironing board if you want. The field is called "Board(s)" for a reason. Enter everything you've got. Now if there isn't room in the field, that's another issue, but the intention was to list all your boards in that field. Hydrofoils? We don't have a water ski field either. That's just a little out of our area of responsibility!

On the Mac's, when I first started WW up, it ran for a few screens and then shut everything down. Got an error and it was sent to Apple. I restarted everything and it seems to be working fine now.
