Houzz/GW user question re: signing out
Comments (10)Well so far, the only thing that works is deleting cookies. I don't know anything about add ons, I'd have to ask DH about that. There are a few scripts blocked in NoScript, but they aren't ones that are specific to this site or anything. I tried to temporarily allow all, and that didn't help. I don't have another browser on this laptop, maybe I'll try Chrome on my tablet. It's not that big a deal, I only need to log in when I want to comment, which I rarely do. I guess I can delete cookies to log out. Thanks for the ideas!...See MoreHello Houzz! Old "houzz" / new "houzz" ...
Comments (33)Thanks for checking in on our progress, patty_cakes! Unfortunately, with all of the rain we've received over the past month or so, progress came to a standstill and we are still waiting for our foundation to be poured! Construction crews all over this area are so far behind on jobs, and I'm trying to have patience. At least we presently have a house in which to live. I know that there are many who work construction here who depend on having those regular paychecks and when they stop rolling in, they really suffer. My heart goes out to them, and I'm trying to keep this all in perspective! As it now stands, our projected completion date is mid-October at the earliest. We have made all of our selections for the house, and I think I've got photos of most everything we've selected here in my "idea book." (Can you view it?) My vision was to keep things as classic and timeless as possible. We've chosen hardwood flooring throughout, with the exception of the bathrooms and the laundry which will be tiled. My kitchen will have white cabinets (with a couple of lighted Flemish-glass fronted cabinets to display my blue and white Cornishware), black granite countertops, and a glossy white subway tile backsplash. We've added crown molding throughout the house. Will have a stacked-stone fireplace in the living room (which is open to the kitchen - a concept that will be quite different than we are used to!). The bathrooms will be simply styled with white subway tile in the showers, white integrated counters/sinks, and we'll have brushed nickel hardware throughout the house. The walls will be painted a very neutral off-white -- certainly different from the Crayola box that our current house used to be! I'm yearning for simple, classic, clean. And new. Never, EVER thought I'd be saying that, but well ... here I am. :-) We'll be buying new furniture once we're in. I'm leaning towards a sectional in the main living space, and we'll need new bedroom furniture for the master and the upstairs bedroom. The little "game room" upstairs will be a space for TV watching and reading, and I'd like to furnish it sparsely but comfortably. I plan to use my paintings as pops of color, and it will be fun to figure out where to hang things once we move. I'll have to sell a few pieces, but I think I can use most of my favorites. We have already committed to plantation shutters in all of the rooms requiring window coverings, and I'm really happy with that decision. I've loved that look for ages, and am also just tired of dealing with curtains. Right now it still feels a little like a dream that's a long way off ... But I know we'll get there eventually!...See MoreChromebook users: chromebook, photos and houzz
Comments (0)didn't want to hijack ...so here's my dumb question (yes there are dumb questions) so I'm turning to friends who won't tell me to my face that I am as dumb as I feel. Ok, I'm going "share" a photo on my android by sending it to my computer so it can be directly uploaded to Houzz. I want to sit in my recliner and use my chromebook instead of at my desk with the pc. Where am I sending my photo to from my phone? And as always with chromebook, where will I find it? Then it's straightforward from there? Thanks, Marie...See MoreUnaccpetable Return And Return Shipping Cost Policies
