Will all the issues most are having as of late, myself included, I'm curious as to what the problem actually is. Is it the IOS8.0.2. download? Is it something with the forum its self or a combination of both? I ask because the problems that I'm experiencing seem mostly limited to the BGE forum. Examples- Can't hardly load pics. Once the pics load I can't delete the small pic. The site just freezes and I have to close out. Any thoughts or input is greatly appreciated my friends.

    I have no issues whatsoever. I'm guessing it's on your end.

    Any thoughts on what it could be?

    I'm on Android so I don't know. Apple and Vanilla have not always played nice so perhaps someone else will chime in with issues.

    One thing you could try is deleting cookies and reloading the site.

    This website is powered by Vanilla, so it may be possible that a compatibility issue may be the cause if it hasn't been updated in a while. I have an Android with 4.4.2 (KitKat) loaded and find it difficult at times to do the same thing. Seems both iPhone and Android have the same problem with pics posting sideways too.

    If I may ask. What are "cookies" and what do they do?

    They are bits of information that sites store on your computer to allow them to communicate better(load faster) when you revist the site. They may also appear in your cache or temporary internet files. If there is faulty code, it can screw with your experience on that site.

    Well, they come in Chocolate Chip, Oreo, hahaha..

    Seriously - A cookie is a small 'text' file that get stored on your within your browser that identifies certain things about you. For example, if you go to Amazon and search for 'grill accessories', that type of information gets stored in that cookie. So the next time you go back to Amazon, it will automatically display grill accessories items that you may be interested in.

    In the end, it stores a bunch of info about you and what you do at a particular site. Sometimes it can get corrupt or out-dated so you need to delete them.

    Not sure what kind of iPhone you have, and I assume you are using Safari - but it should be located in Settings >Look for Safari (tap it) > scroll down a little and you will see a link that you can click that says 'Clear History and Website Data'.

    I've used Apple OSX, various versions, (no iOS) and have always had difficulties posting pics here, I'm tempted to blame Vanilla (but I'll openly admit I'm a tech moron).

    If I try to delete the little pic, everything freezes or locks up and I have to close out and log back in. This all just started real recently.

    Hmm.. Well, unless you have recently updated to the new iOS and noticed then, it could be something with the site.

    It actually started a few days before the 8.2 down load. I down loaded the 8.2 in hopes of rectifying the situation. But no such luck.

    If you can get to a computer or use a different type of phone, you will be able to know if its your phone or the site.

    I am using my PC right now and will post a pic to see what happens.
