Well I usually start checking my portfolio when we get a new challenge but everything is BLANK. Dark days, as they say.

Paulette, would you happen to have a bookmark to either your dashboard or sales screen? I managed to get to the Image Manager from the Sales screen. Good luck!

I’m doing it on the iPad, and there’s an icon at the top left that clicking on it takes me to the pages I’ve visited. I bypass the Alamy logo and go directly to my dashboard, then another place is the chat.

Thanks Betty. Alamy was truly a blank page for a while last night. Ok this morning.. or at least back to what it has been. Not very OK but at least there. When I looked at my measures since Sunday I had 3 views. Crazy.

Would you like me to remove the clock face image as it does not meet with your rules?

OK. I will leave it in for you. If ReeRay does not want it in the comp he has the right to disregard it anyway.
