It seems that after a few mods posted what I thought were pretty reasonable requests for acceptance and tolerance, the negative response (PREsponse) died down.
Hopefully everyone everywhere can get over themselves and their drama to just talk online about The Beach Boys, music, or whatever else is permissible on each board—and not obsess or bitch (whether initially justified or not)—about other boards and members.

Just to let you know, no announcements re: FEEL FLOWS will be coming via a fanzine.
If and when the project picks up steam -- I promise you guys will be first to know.

A poster over at the r/thebeachboys on reddit mentioned that they couldn't get approved here and have tried signing up twice. If you see the username fastballooninghead pop up, they seem to be a decent poster. I lurked through their post history on reddit and didn't see any arguments or trolling.

Hello, is there a mobile friendly way to access/read this site? Text doesn't wrap to the typical mobile width, so to read a whole line of text one has to be zoomed out that squinting doesn't even help. Any tips?
thanks

COMMENT:
I hope this is the right place to ask for help. If you can offer advice, please send instructions via the private message service.
Question: How do I post a photo from Windows 10 - "photos"? I have a few photos from my camera that have been put into files in the photo sections of MSWindows 10. Is it possible to get them posted onto the Smileysmile message board? I know how to post photos from the Internet using the image web address button, but how do you post images from the Windows 10 photo section? Someone suggested a third-party interface. Is there any other way to post -- more direct.
Thanks for your help.

Hello Stephen, unfortunately there is no way to upload images directly from a user's computer files or hard drive onto the board. Some message board platforms do allow it, but the best way to do it in general is to get an online photo host site on which to upload and store your images.
I used to use Photobucket but they changed to a pay service with ridiculous monthly fees and restrictions on "hotlinking" image URL's to message boards or blogs. This is why many of my previous posts containing photos now have no photos.
I switched to and would recommend you try Imgur, here:
https://imgur.com/
They are a free photo hosting site with an easy to use platform. Sign up, get the password, and you can start uploading any images from your computer's files or even direct from a phone or camera's storage. When you upload an image, you will see a menu that has a "direct link" option, which you can then copy and paste that URL here or elsewhere as you would with any other image found online. And you can set privacy settings and accessibility so your files being hosted can be protected.
Until or unless Imgur decides to start changing and charging crazy fees as other sites had done, I'd recommend giving them a try. They're the best hosting site I found, and have had no issues...plus, they allow remote direct linking which is what I think you're looking for.

As I mentioned in the Beach Boys general discussion channel, Fred Vail has said that crowdfunding to give him directly the much needed support to release the Fred Vail album commercially. I have agreed to kickstart things a little, and he was happy to hear that. Would one of the moderators here, who is reliable be willing to quite simply create a GoFundMe account (which is completely free, by the way) so that we could all start donating to it? We already have an anonymous donor who's willing to put in £250, and some more.
Ideally, it would be Billy, as he's cool. So I guess I should address you Billy directly -- are you happy to make this account quickly and share the link with us? If not, I'll take it upon myself to raise after in the start of April.

Any reason when I access the site on my phone it tells me I’m banned but when I access the site on my computer everything works fine? I guess I’ll try to keep on the straight and narrow going forward just in case
Edit: I was able to clear my cookies/history on my phone and re-log in and everything’s fine again, so nevermind.

There have been issues before with people who log in using their phones or mobile devices. I think most if not all eventually straighten out as described above, but some mobile carriers which use certain IP addresses could hit on an address which is banned from the board and that's why it shows up that way for the user. Best fix to try is the one listed above for now, clear all cache and cookies and try again. If someone can log in using a laptop or computer but can't on a mobile device with the same user info, the mobile device and IP seems to be the cause.

Several of my friends have recently posted on SmileySmile and within an hour their postings were taken down. All their posts had one thing in common, my name, Stephen W. Desper.
Is there a problem associated with using my name for a discussion topic? This is a "Beach Boy Discussion Board" is it not? Are some topics off-limits? If so, what could possibly be so offensive about using my name, Desper in any Beach Boy discussion topic?
Please advise.
