By doing essentially nothing other than resizing to make it fit our specs I got your image to 6Kb. That was without even bothering to fiddle with compression.
15Kb is more than enough for anyone.

I am also facing the same issue for large profile pics. I tried compressing the image using Photoshop CS6 and Microsoft office picture manager. But still it does not upload to CP. I somehow managed to compress it to less than 15kb and below 150x150 pixels but still it does not show my profile pic. I am really feeling bad that i cant show my pic to my profile. Please allow someway to automatically itself to lower the resolution or reduce the size without sacrificing its quality.
Its my humble request to you.

Chrome on XP
In the C# section, I tried to 5 DaveyM69 by I accidentally hit 'bad answer'. All fine and dandy, nothing a reload and another click can't fix, so when I reloaded I noticed that his rating was uneffected by my vote. Ok... so I hit 'Good Answer' again and it said 'message marked as answered' etc, and went along my way to the lounge to do absolutely anything but work.
I went back to the C# section to see if any new threads popped up, and alas my vote went awol again!?. It took a *third* vote to make it stick, I reloaded C# and it is still there... for now...
Bug or could it be chrome perhaps?

Nope.
It could be caching, though.
We have a web farm, and each farm caches its own copy of the messages which are updated periodically. When you vote we try and make it so that you see updated information, but don't worry about what others will see (that data will catch up soon enough). Sounds like the system was bumping you too quickly and showing you older cached info.

There seems to be something wrong with the article count on the members profile page.
When you go to the 'Who's Who @ codeproject' its says that you (Chris) have 119 articles.
Clicking on the link for the articles then states '104 articles found'
When going to your profile Chris-Maunder[^] it says 103 articles.
Same thing for David Cunningham
on the who's who: 7
when going to profile : 0
when clicking on the articles submitted: 1
Didn't test any further than than

Again?? I thought we'd fixed that one. Obviously we need didn't use a long enough wooden stake.

I got this when applying for the soapbox 1.0. First comment "perfomed" is misspelled. Second, the message didn't give any indication that there was a man in the loop approval step needed to complete the action.
"The JoinGroup action you perfomed was successful."

Hi,
As long as I am visiting this forum, I might as well run my mouth off some more 
1. If I came across an issue, for example : something involving some aspect of design-time programming in .NET; found the on-line materials were really out-of-date; did not feel personally capable of researching the issue and coming up with a useful article : which would be a appropriate forum on which to post a request for an article ? Let's assume the issue in this case is "language agnostic" ?
2. If I was researching how to use something and came across something that resulted in a small code-snippet that I thought might be useful to others, but did not want to write an article around such a small "payload" : where would it be helpful to post that ?
As always with deep appreciation for CP, and the CP community, from whom I have learned so much !
thanks, Bill

This would be the forum to ask for articles:

1. Has been answered.
2. We are working on a system for exactly this. It comes up too often and a lot of good tips have no home.

Hi,
For me it would be most useful if CP could somehow cache (cookie ?) my advanced search settings so they were retained across sessions.
One area I experience as a real "lack" is that I do not seem to have any option to sort search results by most recent to oldest. This often results in my doing one search where I set the start date to one year, then another where I reset the start and end dates to the previous year ... and so on ... To me an "alpha sort" is irrelevant : but being able to sort by other categories such as user rating, or number of responses would be very valuable.
It would also be "icing on the cake" for me if the result of a search of articles included current user rating, and number of responses to the article
Question : is there any way to build an "exclude" into a search query ? For example : I want use advanced search to find all articles inlcuding the words "design surface" in the title, none of which have "WPF" in the article title.
thanks, Bill

Are blog entries supposed to be showing up in the pending articles section?

Yes, but it's up to members to only mark technical blog entries as consumable. Some blogs have their 'suck in everything' bit set (Sacha's, for example) and so today we saw a big influx where a lot of his older stuff came through.
We're cleaning it out though.

Well, I don't think blog entries belong in the pending article approval section - they're not articles...

It is with sadness that we announce the death of Hector G. Cranberry-Jones, the most loyal and longest serving of the CP Hamsters.
He fell into the heart of a server and was electrocuted.
He leaves behind a wife and 958 children.
It was this awful tragedy that forced the 'crash' of server THX 1138.
It had to go offline to be defluffed.
RIP Hector
