Same issue here Jim. Went to upload a sketch and told I’d reached my limit, in spite of the fact that I haven’t added anything yet to the new site. These are issues that should have been addressed by the designers before launch. I’ve sent Dawn a message about the issue, so we will get it sorted next week hopefully.

Thanks Alan. After waiting all this time for the new site to operate, my weekend just took a bit of a dive. Ah, well, such is art...)-:

This could be the reason why there have been no new posts added to the gallery since yesterday! At least I don’t think that there has!

Morning folks, my biggest issue is still not being able to access site from phone, which is a bind because first thing on a morning I don't want to have to get my lap top out. Every time I have to log in and register then get told either my password or email address is wrong. This sends me the same automated message with a link that I can't even access. Also does our free trial mean that we can try and sell some art? Linda Drury

That’s an issue for Dawn I think Linda, my latest iPhone is picking up the site without any problem, so far anyway! Yes, of course you can sell them! Obviously only until the free site expires. Problem is at the moment, it doesn’t look like anyone can post anything!

Oh no, looks like I can't post to gallery as well, I've supposedly already reached my  limit of four...I haven't posted anything in the gallery on this new site .  I  will have to try in a few days, my patience is running low now!

Looks to be a major site malfunction Lesley. As there have been no new posts since yesterday I imagine it’s across the board. Dawn isn’t back in the office until Tuesday, so I will speak to Sally first thing Monday! Of course it may come back to normal on its own, probably unlikely!

Thankyou so much Alan, I ve missed my favourite site, so it's a little daunting at the moment,  but hopefully they will listen to all of us, and adjust as appropriate.

Well, there will be glitches.  I don't know how much they rely on us to remind them of little things, but I think with this amount of data etc, that in order to fix something, other things will have to be undone ie not work when it did before the glitch is fixed and then that which had been undone can be done up again!  Clear as mud eh?  At least I don't have to log in separately to main site and forum anymore and I can switch between the two which I could not previously do on my equipment.  Swings and roundabouts.  I still think the image display on this site is superb, which ultimately is the key thing. I shall test the image upload here now .... Gudrun

 Another aspect of the new site is the forum is a bit cumbersome.  The old site had a “Latest” link for the forum. It worked . Now it’s a case of scrolling up and down to find the latest comments on anything .  Doesn’t work for me at all.  Please can we have the old method back, or am I a cry in the wilderness .....someone mentioned the size of the Avatar I agree it’s far too big. Rapidly concluding I liked the old site a lot. There is an old saying  “ if it’s not broken ,don’t mend it “.  I bet lovely Syd is looking down on us and saying something along similar lines.  So sorry POL team there has always got to be one ☹️

I agree Sylvia, Latest Posts should be at the top of the page, obvious I would have thought! Looks like the issue with posting on the gallery has been resolved, that’s a good job.
