MRH website
ATTENTION: MRH website maintenance is complete!
What changed?
1. Site look-and-feel has been changed.
The look of the site is now different - one more significant difference is the page width has been increased so 800-pixel wide images fit within the page. Also, when images exceed the 800 pixels, they are cropped, they no longer overlap the side menus and "break" the look of the site.
2. Random header replaced with every 7-second slide show.
Get current issue link
Not that it kept me from the new issue, but the "Get current issue" link on the right side of my page took me to the January issue download page.

Pleast don't mark posts as spam inappropriately
We're getting an increase of people marking posts as spam that are not spam, just posts that some might feel are a little "out there".
The spam link is not to be used to "censor" other posters and if we find you are using it that way those are grounds to have your account locked.
Mistakes happen, we realize - but if you do accidentally mark a post as spam, please let us know so one of the moderators can fix it.
Back to our regularly scheduled postings on model trains!
Alternate to the "Spam" Button
Currently we have the "spam" button. This button is Extremely effective, but it allows anybody and everybody to decide what posts we all get to see and what posts we don't. For physical Spam, it is great. For matters of discussion, it's not so great.
Question about BLOG editors
I have a quick question. I'd like to use a BLOG editor to post updates to MRH. MarsEdit has the ability to post to a Drupal BLOG but I am running into an error saying I don't have permission to edit the BLOG (I put my ID in for the BLOG ID). Is this not a supported way of posting to my BLOG, or am I missing a step in the configuration process?
Thanks,
Ryan
Article Upload Problem
Have attempted to upload a file but receive error. Fill in form, add file and enter. Attempts to load but after a period of time displays error stating that page cannot be loaded, site may be busy try later. Not going through any proxy of firewall.
Any suggestions. The last time I did this it worked OK but that was last spring.

A suggestion for the forum
I have a minor issue with the way the MRH forum works. First, I'd like to say that I LOVE being able to go straight to the first unread response in a thread. It's so handy to be able to scroll down and open each thread in a new tab, then read them at my leisure.
iPhoto and the MRH website
Hi All-
I made the recent migration back to a Mac after 20 years or so on PCs and was curious what strategies other Mac users employ to post photos to the MRH website. On my PC I would simply resize and then use the uploader to post them to the site but with iPhoto I need to resize, export, and then upload.
Seems like I'm just adding steps. What do you guys do? Thanks in advance for the help!
