Hi

How long will it normally take for an Image to show on a new listed member ?

I would have displayed an Image but I got this
Content visible to registered users only.:mad::mad::mad::mad:

So see attachment 327

Thanks

Al :cool:

Fot the thumbshots images, read their terms and conditions, which I believe say that thumbnails for sites will only show if the site is, or has been been listed at DMOZ.

You can still post urls like this:
phplinkdirectory.com

usually thumbnails are instant....who's your thumbnail provider?

[edit]merged threads and posts together, please do not post the same question multiple times....and also give us up to 24 hours to reply, thank you

bruleo answer your question, since the thread David and I replied to, we didn't know it was thumbshots

Hi
The Images have still not shown:confused::confused::confused: It's still saying on the standard image "Thumbshots image coming soon"

holidaycorfu.org/topsites/index.php?list=latest

Content visible to registered users only.

I'm 99.9% sure some if not all of the other sites are not listed at Dmoz :confused: and yet there site image still displays fine.

I know for sure mine is not and yet the directory still dragged an image for my site.
How is the Image generated ?? or is there a setting I need to change ???

Thanks

Al

that's because it either was at one point or is in pending on Dmoz

my site is not listed there but I have submitted it to them and for some unknown reason was not added but wasn't rejected either...so it must still be in pending and it will display a thumbnail

if it has never been listed with them or was rejected then it will not show a preview as they don't feel it is worth quality...
if it's a brand new site, then give it some time or submit it to Dmoz and see what happens
