1. The Hipforums announces it first ever fundraiser. After nearly 30 years online, we must ask our members and guests to help support the website. Thanks to years of ongoing financial support of our members, advertisers and volunteer admin staff, we have been able to keep the forums alive.

    Now we must ask for help as available funds have all been used for our Internet server and other fees.

    So please donate any amount to our PayPal account donate@Hipforum.com to keep the site going. If we can get enough for a few months fees, we won't need to nag you again!

    You could also subscribe to the forums and get an upgrade to Supporter or Lifetime Supporter here

    You can dismiss this message by clicking on the X in the upper right corner.

    Thanks! The Hipforums Staff

    Still, there always a visual option - although that can be a tad 'personally intrusive' for many

    There is always a way to overcome obstacles Candy - and sometimes those with Bonkers mind-sets - ("a lone on a hill") see things from left field, forgotten/discarded and simple
    - And you know, I am an advocate of the KISS principle :)
    (Keep It Simple Sweetie) ;) xx

    The (windy) weather doesn't help - but I'm sure IT'll die down and 'Contact' can be made ….. (even ET managed that) :)

    I've been using Zoom quite a lot to video chat with friends. It seems to be quite reliable.

    It's a group video chat program which runs on computers and mobile phones. Everyone appears in square boxes on the screen. It's become really popular across the world since people got locked down with Covid. You can install it on your computer from here and create an account for free:

    Video Conferencing, Web Conferencing, Webinars, Screen Sharing

    It works really well and doesn't crash in my experience.
