Just wondering what is hold up on "United States Army Forts" since I uploaded on April 13th? And thanks for uploading other files.

Clicking on the image (and not the 'Get File' link to 'Google Earth') of a post (where the post is a link, not a GEH file) do not get the post but present an almost blank browser (IE,FF,etc)

Is there any particular reason for that only the 2 newest pages are shown in the File Comments forum?

Hi Mickey. Again I was thinking of a category, this time: Nuclear Facilities, Test Ranges Split it up and rename Nuclear Facilities to Power Plants - Nuclear, Fossil, Solar power and Wind energy. Fossil and solar plants are placed in Other Items.

After the forum has been re-established last week, I have a hard time locate a users files, when in the forum. Ealier I found the file list via users profile.

Can you add a column for file popularity rating on the "My Files" page please? Maybe drop the "Comments" column..I feel that is the one I use least and is kind of pointless to begin with.

I have/am creating a lot of new files of ancient locations (stone circles, mounds and so) I thaught we need a subcategory for them under Sightseeing other. Can you there create a sub folder called Ancient items ? Here the egyptian pyramids, nazca lines etc. come too instead of where all those...

I'm still investigating the site defacement / spam emails that were sent last night. I've been on the latest version of vBulletin, so I'm not sure what happened. What I know: -- It seems to have been vBulletin specific; nothing on the main site was touched. -- Once into vBulletin, they...

I'm at a PK-12 school and we downloaded the latest version of Google Earth (4.0.2413) and installed on iMacs (intel) and eMacs (power PC). There are two browsers installed - Firefox 1.5.08 and Safari 2.0.4. We can use either browser, but prefer Firefox as our class managment program is Moodle and...

Soon to come is a great milestone of this great forum. The member number 100 thousand, 100000, are going to be registered. My best guess is that member number 100.000 will register on thursday the 9th of july 2009 around early morning UTC standard time, let's say 3.05.

A new user (homeloans86) have posted currently 8 posts with, as I read them, very little relevans to anything about GE. I do not dare clicking on any of the various links in the posts :eek:

When a file is approved and I (the submitter) of the file miss to submit the first comment, the thread will be "owned" by the user of this first comment. Would it be possible that the "owner" of the file submission have access to edit the initial discussion description? Then I do not have to annoy...

Why can I not attach a file in the forum groups? I see other do it but am not given the option.

I was looking at the top submitters list and it gave me some ideas. Why not in addition to number of file uploads, have an extra column for total number of downloads and average number of downloads per file? (Whether as a single list or separate ones)

Hi When updating a thread title of a thread, the corresponding title in the forum list of threads is not updated. Like this thread posted with the title 'Thread Title List not updated' and afterwards edited with a changed title. The new title does not show up in the 'Site Issues and Questions'...

When I post a thread or an reply in a thread in this great forum, there is a time period after submit where I can edit the posting. Currently it's a very short period, 15-30 minutes or something like that. Would you consider letting me have longer time where I have the ability to correct my...

I would like to delete a file I already uploaded; is this possible? Thanks
