Access denied..?

[Emme76]

Hello everyone,
Anyone that can help me? I just became a member about a week ago and now I notice when I try to access other peoples photoalbums that are posted at the end of their posts there comes up a page saying that I do not have access.
Does anyone know why? And also if I try to do my own album I can not find this on my User CP, even if I read that it should be there......:rolleyes:...please help!!!!!
Thanks
Emme

Hi Emme76!

This difficulty is primarily due to you being a very new member. You won't have access to the photoalbums for awhile. This is a precautionary measure but worth the wait.

Also, we have privacy settings here which means certain individuals may mark their albums/blogs only available to friends.

As far as not seeing it in your own CP, I believe this is because you are very new with not so many posts. That will become an option soon.

Hang in there and have fun reading about and perusing the forum. With time you'll be a member long enough with enough posts that you'll have more access. Like I said - it's worth the wait!


ETA: If you click 'Home' on the bar at the top, you can read Stephanie's message, here is part of the relevant section here:


While you're indulging in your daily procrastination (hey, even I'll admit it!), check out the new features! We've made it a millions times easier to spend oodles of time on board (yay!!!). There are far too many little things to mention, but some of the larger things include a new product reviews section, an articles system, real photo albums instead of photo threads, manageable social groups, and even customizable profiles. Some of these features are restricted to our dedicated members (>100 posts + >30 days of membership), so if you've been lurking, please come on out and say hi so you can use the forums to their full advantage!

I think the so called public photo albums and blogs are available to only 25+ quality post members, I read that somewhere but can't remember exactly where right now. After a little while you'll be able to see them. I don't think the "Home" text is totally up-to-date right now.

Thank´s everyone.

What everybody else said :D and: I noticed that a lot of members still carry the links to their old journals/photo threads in their siggies - and they are, for now, lost in the black hole.
