You are using a Proxy

#1 Postby knotimpaired » Wed Dec 05, 2018 12:20 pm

I just tried to send a PM to Cycloneye and it came back and said "You are using a Proxy" and the message was not sent. I have no idea what that means, so can anyone tell me what I may be doing wrong???

Thanks

I have no idea what that means either. Can you take a screenshot of the exact error?

No, I could not reply to your PM. I do not know how to post an image, I am looking over the site for instructions.

I use Dropbox, maybe that is the problem. I will just ask here what I was going to ask Luis.

My husband and I wrote an interactive ebook about Hurricanes Irma and Maria. I was going to ask Luis what the appropriate forum would be to post the link for it. http://www.hurricane2017.com. If you could please let me know I would appreciate it. Strange I can post and receive PM's, but not initiate or respond to them :(

All I am getting is a text line that says exactly this.

You are using a Proxy!

I got all of your PM's ... strange.

Good luck with your book! I will make sure Luis knows about this thread.

For dropbox, when they give you a direct link change the 0 to a 1 at the end and I think it should work.

Hi Luis,

My husband Lee and I wrote a book about Irma and Maria and the impact on Vieques and Puerto Rico. It is an ebook, with interactive links.

It is only $4.99, obviously we are not out looking to make money, but i wanted to post it on Storm2k for anyone that may be interested but I just do not know where it would be appropriate to post.

What are your thoughts? You can take a peak at http://www.hurricane2017.com.

Thanks Luis,

Karen

That's not the link, that's a preview window you had open. When you are viewing the file on dropbox you need to hit the share button which opens up a dialog that looks like this:

You need to create a link, which shares the file. You can then paste that link and we can view the image.
