Its the default no avatar picture done by board software.

So it's a picture, OK, but it doesn't change the fact that I find it very annoying to see this "picture" used for all people who don't have a personalized avatar.

The problem seems fixed now.

We have never assigned avatars to members, they need to upload their own.

Yes, well whatever you call this :

I've been looking for the "subscribe to this topic" link for quite some time, only to find out that the button is hidden behind the "View content" at the top of the page. I think there is also a print button hidden behind the "open quick navigation" icon. Sorry if this has been reported already, I didn't go through all the pages of this topic. I see the problem with Chrome and IE9.

delboy, ok, so we're in the same boat. May I ask where you live? I'm in Cha-am myself, Phetchaburi province.

Less than 400kbps upload speed is kind of slow . You can max it out very easily if you have other transfers going on. I'm thinking of Bittorrent mostly. You sure there's no such thing?

No, nothing else going on.

It's indeed very slow but it's the only ISP in my neck of the woods so I don't have any choice but to bear with it. When it's slow but it's working, at least I can get some work done. But now it's terrible, I had to put my files on a USB key and drive to a friend's who lives in town and has another provider.

At least if tech support could tell me that they're experiencing a problem at the moment, due to bla bla bla... but it really gets on your nerves when you're dealing with people who don't have a single clue about anything. "FTP... it's a software???"

Yes their SMTP is miserable too, and if you're using a POP client I don't think you can use your own or a third party SMTP (last time I checked you couldn't).

I think the new layout is OK, it has a more modern touch than the previous one, even if I don't like this minimalist trend where many features are hidden and you have to hover over this or that to make them appear.

The thing I'm definitely not getting used to, however, is the standard avatar for people who don't have one. It makes it very confusing to differentiate between the different posters. Avatars are useful because you just glance at it and you immediately distinguish between people. If they don't have an avatar, your eyes are immediately on their name. Now with this standard avatar I can't help looking at it, then I have to check the name. Very annoying, and I don't think it brings anything good to the forum.

I'm trying to upload files to my websites via FTP, or via cpanel file manager, and I only get time outs. I'm also trying to upload files in a databse using a php script, same problem. Anyone experiencing the same kinds of problem with TOT now? It's been like this for 2 days. The files are small, from 15 kb to 200 kb, I'm not even talking mb or gb. I've checked with my remote server, everything is fine there, but traceroute shows problems in and around TOT.

I contacted TOT "technical" support but they don't even know what FTP is, so of course it was hard to explain problem, even in Thai. Amazing Thailand, ISP tech support doesn't have a clue what FTP is.

Speedtest against Singapore looks normal:

Last Result:

Download Speed: 3991 kbps (498.9 KB/sec transfer rate)

Upload Speed: 369 kbps (46.1 KB/sec transfer rate)

Latency: 137 ms

Googled Merry Christmas in all languages , Thai is in the list.

What is the IP you type in your browser?

Irrelevant as he gets the login page for the router so must have connected to it.

I asked the question because I have both a modem and a router on my network, and when you login it's just a standard pop up window from the browser that opens, so you don't know if it's for the modem or for the router. I remember I once used the modem's IP and the router's login/pass, of course it didn't work but my first thought was that I had the wrong password. But OP would have probably specified if he used both a modem and a router.

or ไปเลย

I'm going to Loei (province).

a good friend who knows you

Rather looks like "it was nice meeting you" to me.

Say "soi 26" first, then you can add "leuy pay soi 26 nit noy".

เลยไป means further, beyond...

Nice cars (but ugly stickers). Thanks for sharing. Any idea where they are headed next?

Try freelang.net/translation , it's free for short and personal requests. Cheers.

It's maleng or mareng (มะเร็ง) and it means cancer.

Sorry but I don't understand how having to charge the VAT has anything to do with it. As a company owner I have to charge VAT but if my customers are private persons I always give them a price that already includes VAT. If the price is 107 I draw an invoice that shows 100 as the price + 7 VAT, or if the price is 100 then the invoice shows 93.46 + 6.54. I think that what matters is that the VAT is shown on the invoices you give to your accountant. Whether you include or exclude it from the price you give to your customer is your own choice, nobody forces you to exclude it. Or am I missing something?

Besides, as a customer when I go somewhere I like to know what I will be paying. So if I'm in a restaurant and I'm checking the menu, I want to see the final price. I couldn't care less if the owner has to pay taxes or not and I don't want to be charged another 7 or 10% for whatever reasons are explained in a small footprint. Maybe Americans are used to this system, but Thai people (and most people I guess) surely aren't.

I'm still curious how you were able to look up the Tambon and Amphur.

I did a Google search, and I think I got it from here. I hope I didn't read too fast...

You don't need to write "house number", just leave it like this:

(Name Last name)

55, Moo 31

Ban Don Wiang Chan

T. Khanthararat

A. Kantharawichai

Maha Sarakham, 44150

Thailand

Ban Don Wiang Chan is indeed the village, then you have the subdistrict, the district and the province.

Romanization is OK (capital letters better, to make sure).

You can add ampoer (district) and tambon (subdistrict):

T. Khanthararat

A. Kantharawichai

I would write it like this:

55 Moo 31

Ban Don Vientiane

Maha Sarakham 44150

Yes, you could say that. It comes from a hit by the girls band

Can't he just ask his wife to remove the picture? Simple. Everytime his wife will do something stupid, or something he totally disapproves, regarding food, health, education or general life of his child, will he just stand by and ask himself "<deleted> is she doing", or will he act like a father?

And since you're asking, I think putting make-up on a 6 month old is plain stupid, and putting it on Facebook is plain wrong. The girl hasn't started her life yet and she's already deprived of her privacy. I would hate to be a kid these days and grow up to realize all my life is displayed in pictures on FB or my parents' blog.
