Guest swan Posted February 28, 2003 Report Posted February 28, 2003 Just want to remind you folks that are still using ranchoweb that the plug is being pulled on the free service tonight.
Guest evenflowDDT Posted February 28, 2003 Report Posted February 28, 2003 All right! Smell the broken links in my sig!!!!
Guest swan Posted February 28, 2003 Report Posted February 28, 2003 www.boomspeed.com was pretty painless to switch to.
Guest evenflowDDT Posted February 28, 2003 Report Posted February 28, 2003 Is it? Do you have to fill out ALL the information though?
Guest swan Posted February 28, 2003 Report Posted February 28, 2003 Is it? Do you have to fill out ALL the information though? Nope I filled out the first 5 or 6. I stopped at a desription for my site or whatever it asks. I didn't provide any personally info and I received my authorization code in a matter of seconds (T1 line though). http://www.boomspeed.com/host/cgi-bin/signup.cgi
LaParkaYourCar Posted February 28, 2003 Report Posted February 28, 2003 I just made up a fake address like I always do on things like that.
Guest swan Posted February 28, 2003 Report Posted February 28, 2003 I just made up a fake address like I always do on things like that. Street address? You didn't have to put anything at all. I have a hotmail address for sites like this. I check once a month. Good thing I did so I knew Rancho was a goner.
LaParkaYourCar Posted March 1, 2003 Report Posted March 1, 2003 I still have not recieved my activation email from boomspeed!!! I even clicked the link to have it sent again.
Guest Kotzenjunge Posted March 1, 2003 Report Posted March 1, 2003 I've been waiting for a week and a half for my Boomspeed code.
Guest evenflowDDT Posted March 1, 2003 Report Posted March 1, 2003 That's odd, I got mine right away. If you have JunkMail filters turned on, check the Junk Mail folder, 'cuz that's where mine went.
Guest Kotzenjunge Posted March 1, 2003 Report Posted March 1, 2003 Nope, I've checked every single folder and E-mail I've gotten since then.
LaParkaYourCar Posted March 1, 2003 Report Posted March 1, 2003 I checked my junk mail too and it's not there.
Guest evenflowDDT Posted March 1, 2003 Report Posted March 1, 2003 That's odd. I really have no idea then why I received it and you guys didn't. But for the moment it doesn't seem to matter... my Ranchoweb sig banners and avatar are still up.
Guest T®ITEC Posted March 2, 2003 Report Posted March 2, 2003 If BoomSpeed never pans out for you two, you could always give Villiage Photos a try. I've never had a problem with their service.
Guest evenflowDDT Posted March 2, 2003 Report Posted March 2, 2003 test Ummm... you do know there's a forum for that, right? But yes, Ranchoweb still works. For now.
LaParkaYourCar Posted March 2, 2003 Report Posted March 2, 2003 If BoomSpeed never pans out for you two, you could always give Villiage Photos a try. I've never had a problem with their service. With villagephotos your pic cuts out when too much traffic is viewing it. I guess I'll just stick with imagestation since it's working for me, but the url's are too long for the avatar.
Guest T®ITEC Posted March 2, 2003 Report Posted March 2, 2003 Oh yeah? Meh. My avatar hasn't cut out yet... And I've been posting all over the damn place today. EDIT: Your bandwidth allowance is 5MB per day. They give you addresses that are short enough for TSM, as far as an avatar goes. So if the file isn't freakin' huge, then you'll be fine. And come on! Your avatar is only 26KB! Live a little.
Guest Midnight Express83 Posted March 2, 2003 Report Posted March 2, 2003 why not get a website and get 25 mbs of space, then you can store your shit there: and work right off of Frontpage, so you don't have to worry about logging on the site and updating the old fashion way. www.netfirms.com is better than image sites like this. ::goes to the clinic after this much whoring::
LaParkaYourCar Posted March 3, 2003 Report Posted March 3, 2003 I FINALLY got my Boomspeed email and it's working great for me.
