Well now folks I have to go with Alan on this.You all give WNA a lot of grief but he is still quite young you know.We all have to start somewhere.I have a 15 year old of my own and I hope you would treat him in a gentlemanly manner if he visited this site.

Mind if you didn't you'd be hearing from me.

So as one who is a bit useless at the 'internet' I can only say there are no stupid questions just impatient people.

Incog :)

I agree, And sometimes stupid answers.

Don't let them get to you Wayne. We all learn at our own pace, and no one knows everything.

No day in which you learn something new is ever totally wasted. ;)

is there an English (UK) option? - if so try that.

remember any user name etc, has to match exactly what is sent, Alanmelon had it right :tu: :)

- so peppie should be peppie

- Peppie would be Peppie

- PeppiE would be PeppiE

- but I think it is the language setting that is the problem :)

Sorry to be a pain but its English US only. :erm:

It's one of several things then;

- Wrong username
- Wrong password
- Wrong domain name (remember not to add the www. to the start)
- Your account hasn't been activated yet?

Double check all the above with any confirmation e-mails you might have.

in that case, you may need to set your keyboard to be an 'US' one, for the login to work ?

- I am not recommending this, btw :erm:

- I would be very careful, iiwy, Wayne, not to 'put you down', but to try & curb your enthusiasm, so you don't get burnt, not just flamed :)

No, homealone - it's all the same, the server doesn't care how you spell Wayne does it? :D

So if im just copying and pasting my details into the fields this should work? But its not.

Just thought....you do have a domain name registered don't you? :erm:

You didn't mention that as one of the inclusions with your hosting!

I shan't rain on your parade or anything, all I will say, is don't put anything on there that you don't have a copy of, or that you couldn't bear to lose, i.e. data, pictures, whatever - if for some reason you don't meet their requirements for a free site, they may lock you out, and not release your stuff until you pay the charge - it's a particuarly nasty/underhand way of screwing money out of people, pretty much on the same level as black mail (if you ask me)

if it is password protected & case sensitive, then I assumed it would ??

Could it be the fact that the site takes 24hrs to come online.
