In order to make your visit here as enjoyable as possible, please read the following guidelines in the link below, before you post.

http://marvelousmibs.s4.bizhat.com/index.php?c=12

POSTING PICTURES
You must use your own off-site photo hosting service, like www.photobucket.com. AOL FTP doesn't seem to work here either. If you want to practice posting pictures you can go to the "Test Forum" (link below) and post there. Please note that the AOL browser doesn't work on this forum.

The link below also contains a very easy-to-follow tutorial for posting pictures and uploading your own avatar.

HELP US HELP YOU ID YOUR MARBLES!

Here are a few tips that will help you get the best responses when asking for help identifying your marbles:

1) If you have a large group of marbles and want a quick assessment of the age and/or value of your marbles, just post the clearest photograph of the group all together (including several views, if possible).

2) If you have a large group of marbles, but would like to identify each
marble, it’s best to post pictures of no more than 3 marbles (with several views of each) in a new topic.

3) Remember to check the size of your picture before posting. When they are appropriately sized, you’ll get a better response. If you need help with this, check out the “Picture Tutorial” in the URL link above.

4) Be patient and don’t always expect an immediate response. Many of the most knowledgeable collectors may only check in once every few days.

5) Don’t be surprised to get conflicting answers. Marble collecting isn’t an exact science, and we’re all still learning. Smile




Everyone, please feel free to use the "Contact the Moderator/Administrator" section as often as you need to. We'd love to hear your thoughts, suggestions and/or concerns. This format will allow the first one of us (myself, Steve or Chris) that reads your message to assist you as soon as possible. If your issue/concern is a private one, feel free to PM or email us directly.

INVITATIONS REQUIRED TO JOIN THIS BOARD?


As I'm still getting messages asking if it's ok to join without an invite, I thought that it might be a good idea to link the original post about this topic here. It's been "un-pinned" from the top of the board, so it's easily missed since it's now on the one of the first few pages. Very Happy

Nevertheless, here's the link:

BANNED OR CAN'T LOG IN?


Quote:



If you ever try to log in here and you get a message saying that you're banned or you're just not able to log in .................don't panic and assume the worst! Smile

Just yesterday, one of our own moderators, Chris (tankgrrl29) received a message that she was banned and she wasn't able to log in.

The problem was that her IP (Internet Protocol Address) was in our "list of banned IPs". This can happen accidentally for several reasons..........but mostly it's due to human error. This board does not have all the bells & whistles that many of the "paid for" boards do, which means that we (myself, Steve & Chris) constantly have to manually input IP numbers to keep the spammers and their bogus ads & porn off of this site. It's a tough job........but someone's gotta do it. Laughing

So........if it happens to you.........contact myself at marvelousmibs at gmail dot com or anybody else that's a member whose email address you know. Have them contact one of us so that we can get in touch with you and correct it. If you don't know anyone else..... go to one of the other marble boards. Then look up one of our profiles there which will have a place to contact us via email or PM (personal message).

Remember, if you haven't received an email from us telling you that you've been banned.........then chances are it's a mistake!


The post above was replicated from a previous thread.
