BirdPhoto42, thanks for your post. Keep posting and the filters will be removed. I hope that you enjoy the almost spam free environment that the filters help create.

Thanks for your help Bigfoot. I was able to get in to my profile again and upadate that. But I still can't attach images. According to the requirments, my image size is well under, but it won't let me attach.

There should be no restrictions on your membership at this time. Sometimes you bump up against an upload limit, Try it now again.

I also received your email & have continued to try to post as well as change my profile, but nothing is happening. I can't even get my old avatar of a tufted titmouse back up.

There are filters in place since your last visit to catch the spammers. Unfortunately they catch all members new or old until the filters are satisfied. You should be good to go now.

Just registered and received confirmation. Cannot change my profile or settings altho I can upload photos. What now? If it is a spam jamming issue I am happy to see that someone cares about this issue......unlike the website whose name shall be anonymous but who's initials are FB!

Yes, your first few posts have to be accepted by a mod before you can change your profile or settings. That way we can filter out spammers.

We are almost spam free since the filters have been put in place, like Liam said, post normally to the forums about birds and birding and the filters will be removed.
