Got the bag!

Victor Martinez - 20 Jan 2005 21:36 GMT I got the bag today, loaded the batteries and released the monster!!! All the cats were sleeping at the time, but one by one, they all woke up and converged on the bag. Fez was the first to smell the bag, but he did not dare to touch it. It was his brave brother, Rufous, who gathered enough courage to attack the moster in the bag. Pictures posted here: http://tinyurl.com/6nqmc http://tinyurl.com/4kgrm I also added a picture of Luna teaching Rufous to eat his veggies: http://tinyurl.com/4d73u
All photos are in the RPCA_Pictures group in Yahoo, under the folder called Victor's crew in the Photo Albums. :)

Karen - 20 Jan 2005 21:42 GMT Oh my gosh look how BIG Rufous is now. Can you believe he used to be that tiny little kitten?

My guess is you showed us the "editor" links instead of the "anyone can view" links?

Yowie - 21 Jan 2005 05:32 GMT You have to be a member of the Yahoo group to see the pics. Ditto with Catslaves, another RPCA-related Yahoo group.
Get yourself a Yahoo ID (make sure you tell it you don't want it to spam you to death) and then sign up for RPCA_Pictures http://photos.groups.yahoo.com/group/RPCA_Pictures/ and while you ar ethere, sign up for Catslaves http://photos.groups.yahoo.com/group/catslaves as well (I have to approve catslaves memberships - but if I know its you I'll do it ASAP rather than waiting for you to answer the "why do you want to join" form letter. )

Mudama - 21 Jan 2005 17:35 GMT Okay, I really don't get this. If I log in as my userid (bounceswoosh) and try to go to the links below, I just get the error I mentioned. If I try to go to the "Photos" section from www.yahoo.com, it takes me to a place where I can *publish* photos. I see no way to just join the group that lets me see these photos.
Going to groups.yahoo.com and searching on rpca doesn't work, either.
Heeeeeeelp!

No such thing as a direct connect from here, so it's *possible* the proxy thing is the issue ... I suppose ...

Yes, but are you a member already? I suspect the issue is *becoming* a member of the group, not viewing it if you're already a member.

I'm on Firefox too, sometimes through a proxy and sometimes directly. Hasn't made any difference for me. Hmmmm... Can you access my yahoo pics in the addy in my sig?? Or is it just the pics on Catslaves that you can't get to?

(I mean no disrespect ma'am, sorry for shouting... :)) Has Monique already been invited to Catslaves?? She can't seem to get to see the pics Victor posted there. If she *has* been invited, is there something wrong??

Julie Cook - 21 Jan 2005 19:39 GMT They're actually in RPCA_Pictures which Victor moderates. If you go to Yahoo groups and find RPCA_Pictures then ask to join Victor will sign you up.

Or is it a hidden group, by invite only??

Yowie - 21 Jan 2005 21:20 GMT Bot Catslaves and RPCA_Pictures (dunno about RPCA_Photos) are hidden groups. The idea being that you find out about them from here, rather than just search the Yahoo groups for something you might like.
Whilst I know that there are a few people in Catslaves that don't read RPCA, its not because they don't want to be part of RPCA, but rather the find they can't be (due to time, or access etc etc)

Sort of. I think.

Ditto. It's also asking me to log in to Yahoo when I click on the link to the photo. Then, after I log in, I get the error message.
I wonder if it's a greebling making its way through Yahoo? I'll keep trying. It's got to work sooner or later. :o)

Shirley Butler - 21 Jan 2005 18:15 GMT Hi,I tried to access the pix. First Yahoo wanted me to sign in, which, sinxce I'm not a member, can't. Tried with the other tiny URL and it wouldn't let me see - kept saying an error.
Obviously everyone else here is smarter than me. HELP!

and click Join group, then follow instructions (works if you're already a Yahoo member).
There's also http://groups.yahoo.com/group/RPCAPhotos/ just for photos, and then there's Catslaves at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/catslaves/ where we have lots of stuff on rpca people and cats and other stuff. With both, click Join group, but with Catslaves the process is more involved (Yowie decides who gets to join).

Okay. That finally worked. Cute pics! I really wish I knew why searches on rpca didn't turn these guys up ...
