The officer concentrated on my bank book and the banker's guarantor, after that, she stamped on my passport and everything is done !

suprising is having it approved without the 'under consideration...' stamp first.

She did tell me however, that I am not allowed to withdraw the funds in my account for the entire year.

this is not true, your funds are proof of support of a thai and certainly can be spent...and then topped off next year.

after testing i see the problem maybe the actual random album image block can not display thumbnails larger than 100 x 100 pixels. this is because that block tries to pull and display everything.

I can't find any setting to control the size of thumbnails. All I see is the setting to control the width of the content blocks, which has a minimum of 150 pixels.

i just created a new blog and the content block width defaults to 250 pixels. random images display as thumbnails ok on this end. what is yours currently set to ?

OK, I think I've figured it out. Jai Dee's blog and mine both have a lot of images embedded in the text, whereas Glauka's doesn't. There must be some limit somewhere that prevents the random image coming up if there are a lot of graphics already displayed. This may be why I did see the random image when I first started the blog.

i think you are right about a limitation.

after testing i see the problem maybe the actual random album image block can not display thumbnails larger than 100 x 100 pixels. this is because that block tries to pull and display everything.

if you notice Glauka has his random images opening ok because they are smaller than 100 x 100. below he has in his 'My Picture' block a 600 x 600 image that is chopping off on the blog page but does display.

i believe the two blocks treat images differently, random images tries to fit up to 100 x 100 pixels inside it's block and My Picture block will trim but display up to 100 pixels of the original pic on the blog page. (blog column display limitation)

I see what you mean.

I tried the same in my blog and got the same result.

I'll rattle Huski's cage and see if he can fix it.

i see the random image not displaying as a thumbnail as you described. went all through the blog settings, and it seems to be a bug, will report to invision software and look for an update in the future.

last week there was a bad router/switch (located in the savvis.net network) between thailand and two hops before our server in the united states. once it was identified, traffic was re-routed.

anyone having delays, please do the following and paste your results in this thread:

go to a c:/ prompt and type in

tracert thaivisa.com

click enter

this trace will show the hops from your ISP to our server. also do a trace route with the following and post the results:

Yeah, the article also didn't mention that the victim was drunk as well and may have iniated the confrontation.

and your source is?

Thanks Guy's for the information, I had been thinking that it would be a problem leaving Thailand while I had a

Application for extension of stay is Under consideration stamp in my passport,

Many Thanks..... Mumbo

your re-entry permit will be dated to expire with your under consideration date. don't come back after that date or your extension will expire.

if you are planning to return after your under consideration date, get it extended further at immigration or check if your final extension is ready, then get your re-entry permit.

Makes no difference Lop......it merges them no matter what I use

Merge member's concurrent posts

When a member posts twice within 10 minutes, once after the other in a topic they will be merged into one post.

Decided to shut down the computer. The sound from inside the case gradually died out. Even after switching off the red switch on the power strip, I got a shock from the case. Quite a shock too - my hand still felt it more than an hour afterwards.

get rid of the power strip you are using and buy a better brand. have seen this problem before.

Normally I browse through various topics as guest. When I like to reply to a thread I log in and reply.

Now with the new version it is no longer possible to log in to a topic direct; instead the list of main forums re-appears and from there I have to browse again to the subforum and topic I was reading.

It's only a few clicks but I'm on dial-up so it slows things down a bit.

at ATMs, i have found it to be 15,000 baht per session. if you want more money and a better rate, some exchanges will let you pull from your account alot more up to your daily purchase limit.

Does anyone know where i can get a mail box address online. I will be moving to Bangna in Feb and I need an address that I can forward mail to. I also need it for other reasons my employer( outside Thailand) Tax man etc.

Any info would be great. I have tried to search but not come up with anything positive

Thanks

You can not get a mail box online that i know of. Will need to fill out an application in person.

please use the general forum for now. if a new forum is created in the future, older related topics can be moved.

you received a single entry non immigrant B visa. what you needed to do in your last month was go to Thai Immigration and get a one year extension of stay.

Now Im told by immigration that I cant even get a 1 year visa from in Thailand and I must leave the country to do it.

Do I have to leave the country for sure or can I use one of these companies I see in the bangkok post?

not recommended

I am still unclear on the USED STAMPS business.

When I enter Thailand using the first entry, should I expect them to stamp the visa USED even though it still has a second valid entry? Or, do they use another kind of stamp when there is still some use to the visa? I don't care if they stamp USED after the second entry, but concerned about the visa still being valid for the second entry after the first entry if it is already stamped USED.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

when entering thailand on a fresh multi entry visa; the first entry will have the date stamped. the second entry should also have its date of entry stamped in. at that point (in the case of a double entry visa) the USED stamp maybe used or sometimes a line is drawn through the visa.

remember to check your admitted until date on your entry stamp everytime.

Now what do we do with a piece of shit like this?

my only problem was that instead of the 10-15 minutes you said, it was near on 30 minutes.

firefan moves at the speed of light on the football pitch, he may be the same on asphalt.

In fact, the lady at the Chiang Mai Immigration advised me in July to do the overstay instead of paying 1,900 baht.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

and of course that lady at chiang mai immigration will be right there to pull you out of the IDC in the remote chance you are caught.

never overstay, period

you are not over your storage limit but maybe over the per topic limit, try to attach a smaller pic in a new topic to test.

Using westerners as an example: these folks basically don't require a visa to visit Thailand now, but they do require a visa to visit the other four countries in question. What would happen under this new plan?

i don't think a 30 day entry without a visa will change.

sounds like getting a tourist visa from a consulate/embassy will first include thailand and cambodia then eventually more countries, i can't imagine all the countries involved agreeing on everything right away.

holders of a thai non-immigrant visa or extension should be able to enter once this is worked out, unless this is so geared towards tourism, then we will need to get a cambodian tourist visa (and the thai visa is not in effect when re-entering).

will need to see if this is worked out, has been talked about for quite a while now.
