Meh. These days they are like a drug house while in the past they were this grand place with a great reputation. Now its all about cheesy ads and a spamed up forum. The place is a "DUMP!"☹️

I think I seen it in the FAQ recently when I was doing a bit of personal research. So far nothing is better then PayPal. ☹️

Still figuring out my situation regarding this new policy in PayPal. Looks like the internet is becoming more and more unaccessible to those who are not well off. A total opposite to what was to happen.

I had always pictured this as a side income/add on but now its not even enough for lemonade thanks to greed on both sides. So Now I'm trying other things more or less. But I guess its not a bad thing.  Just another stepping stone. Just like the water in between the stones, at times can be scary.

55
For some reason I saw "PigMonkey" Maybe that could be their new name? LOL :P
Anyways, thanks for the info.  To me over all this company merger is more like "PacMan" gobbling up more pellets to make more of a monopoly for its self.

Yeah but then how will your system stay safe from getting hacked and other?
 
The only way I can think of is having those things on another computer that doesn't go on the internet. Then that would solve that issue. Other then that , yet another pain in the @ss to deal with.

Those who use older software, should we be concerned?
Found this thread conversation intriguing and concerning.

Sample post Aug 28, 2021"Also, expect your perpectual software to stop running sometime soon because Apple or Microsoft will change the system and it will no longer run. Plan for subscriptions."

Thoughts?

Photography Equipment / Re: Night Sky - Star Photos
« on: August 24, 2021, 23:24 »
Beautiful! Love all those shots. Regarding those humming birds, great shot just hope you get some more colourful ones in the future.  Birds and butterflies truly hard to photograph. I tried a few times my self and really its a "chite or miss" opportunity.  Managed to get a interesting shot of a dove of mine in the beginning of a takeoff with an old style digital "point and shoot" camera. Sadly Millhouse which was his name is no longer around due to some kind of autoimmune thing.  But I still have many other pet doves with me. 😊💕
I don't sell stock photos really, but just like to take some nice pics and also use them for reference. Thanks to people who do stock, I have learned a lot to improve my shots with what ever I have.  :)

Sorry the way I acted the other day. I was getting all frazzled.  :-[ So after awhile I had to just call it quits for the day because I just couldn't think straight anymore. The next day I tried something else that I didn't think to try and I was able to get into my account.(why didn't I think about that in the first place)   Got in and everything was alright. But I still have to think of a solution to the original problem. Thinking of joining a local credit union. I was eventually going to do that anyways. But I will have to first ask a few questions and then find the time to do that. Just so busy these days.  I don't want all my eggs in one basket after all.

But anyways thanks for any advice anyone was trying to give me. Just want to make sure I said that.  :)

I have a feeling that I was robed!  >:( :( Can't even get into my account.  >:( >:( >:(
I don't know If I can do anything now.  :'(

61
Can't even get into my account >:( My password still works but for some reason I can't get passed the "summit mobile number!" crap. I don't have a mobile phone and I cant even use the link they provided for codes.  >:(

62
Well I am trying to save a bit of money. Its not like I make money all the time you know. Trying to after all and this really doesn't help.  :(

And yeah, yeah I know about the banks charging accounts. Mine does it regardless if you have an active account or a not so active account and on a monthly basis they charge.  :(
So I always have to do a bit of juggling ever so often cause well if you don't keep one of your bank accounts active and it goes inactive they will take your money.  >:(

Looks like I'll have to "juggle" this PayPal account as well.  Sigh...
Just have to figure out how.


63
Looks like someone already posted this question at the PayPal forums.
https://www.paypal-community.com/t5/My-Account/Inactive-Account-PayPal-Legal-Definition/m-p/2793710
Stay tuned!

64
Nope. Just says that they're going to charge starting some time in November. I would like to either find out here or contact them for more info.  :(
Hopefully this issue can be solved simply.
I just hate to well you know have to "juggle" yet again.

General Stock Discussion / Paypal's latest policy updates.
« on: August 13, 2021, 22:34 »
Just got an email from PayPal stating the latest policy changes.
Well looks like they're going to start charging for inactive accounts starting some time in November as one of their latest policies. For us Canadians its going to be around 20 dollars. Not happy!  >:(  Every bit I work hard for and it all counts. I don't need some money hungry dirty monkey paws stealing my money.  >:(

Anyways anger and frustration aside ::), do you know if I could just log in now and again and that would solve that issue or do I have to take some other possible drastic action?

Thank you for any reply.

Thanks a bunch every one! The info you guys provided is very helpful and useful. Much appreciated! 😊👍
Just making a children's book.  My first one. Its a bit of an experiment just to see if its worth my time. I did have success in the past working for others. I still don't wanna give up on that but I just wanted something to call my own.

Thanks. 🙂

You can always do some research on your own?

Looks like they're associated with Getty. 🤔

« on: June 04, 2021, 22:33 »
I've seen one of two but you have to pay the piper. I would still like a free one though if possible.

Thanks.  :)

Example please? I have an older collection (hoard...) of 8bf filters, and I don't know what all of them do. Maybe one is nostalgia crappy graphics?  ;)

Oh cool! Thanks. That's nice too. 😊👍

Illustration - General / Any free 8 bit filters?
« on: June 01, 2021, 22:50 »
Can anyone recommend a free filter plugin for Photoshop and for Illustrator to give my art an 8 bit look to it?
I'm sure I could make this FX with out one but I would like to not spend so much time on it.
Thanks!  :)

I tried them. I find them not as flexible as I would like them to be. Most of the "goodies" are offered as premium services.  Dashboard services are not as easy to use. Better off with some of the others out there.

Humm VECPHO ? Vector soup? 🤔
Sounds Vietnamese?

Well you can get off the "hamster wheel" and try other ways of revenue? Just have to try and don't forget to support each other in your endeavors.🙂 If you don't stick around and give all your energy to these rich cronies, they'll have nothing to crack a whip at.
