Some of you have been emailing me complaining that you can't post photos after you have registered.
Registration is a two step process and you aren't fully registered until you complete both steps.
1. You fill out the registration form and hit submit and then
2. The system sends you an email immediately. There's a link in that email you have to click to verify yourself.
Once you've done this, your registration is completed and your able to post photos.
Some people are not receiving the registration email for various reasons, or they are just so excited that they're not reading the part in the registration process that explains about the email.
Spam filters can also sometimes mis-identify the registration email as spam and filter it. Not sure why, but some spam filters seem to think an email with a link in it has a high probablity of being spam.
If you have a junk/filtered email box, just do a search in it for an email with the subject line:
"Action Required to Activate Membership for USG forums!"
or you can also search on the following email address:
"john@usg-online.com"
If both of these fail, just email me at john@usg-online.com and I can complete your registration manually.
This sytem may seem a bit silly, but it just prevents people signing up other people as jokes and general misuse of the boards (i.e. spam robots and such)
