    Hello fellow forum members,

    I deactivated email notifications through a link at the bottom of a notification email from the forum, but I would now like to reactivate the feature. I can't seem to find a specific setting anywhere on the forum pages, is there one or are there other ways to do this?

    Also, is it possible to set my gender, age, country etc.? Again, the only options I can find under 'Settings' only relate to my avatar and email address.

    Thank you for any help you may provide, and have a nice day!

    EDIT: Furthermore, is there a way to set the following of every new thread I post as a default? Thank you.

    Hello Vinn2,

    Thank you for hijacking my thread :)

    As far as pictures are concerned, I have my own domain with storage space, so I simply upload them there and use a direct URL. I have no experience with photo sharing websites so I am afraid I can't be of assistance.

    I would suggest you start a new thread for your problem. That way it will have far more visibility and we will avoid confusion here on my thread, which is not about photo-related problems.

    Have a nice day!

    wrt to email notifications, I believe you can select "Follow" (top right corner) and opt the email option on individual threads. I also believe it was the intention of the administrators to limit the amount of personal information for privacy reasons.

    Thank you very much Alam. I thought the email notifications could be turned on or off as a default setting, but it seems it is not the case. And it makes sense what you say about personal information.
