It worked but they will probably find a way to block it if they read this. Thank you.

I am an Interior Designer you should hear the complaints from the design community from those who signed up to be part of this app. One I know became so desperate he changed the name of his company. It seems withdrawing from houzz is almost impossible without causing great damage to their businesses. The app served a great purpose when it began and my hope is that it will be bought out or inherited by more reputable people. The way they do business is POOR business in the long run. I would never utilized any of their services and those in the know would not do so either. This has got to hurt them so they seem to be branching out into other areas to generate revenue. So sad when all they need to do is be honorable business owners. I am sure if we felt less frustration some who read or post on Gardenweb would travel to their design sites for advice or products. Now it only the unsophisticated or the newbies that they hook in. Hummm wonder if I will be banned for this ???? Wish that they would take advice instead.

That's unfortunate if withdrawing from houzz causes great damage to businesses..... how does that happen or work?

I can promise I am the most tech-impaired person on this forum but here is what I came up with. What I have done is have the Gardenweb Forum on my desktop. I click on that and for whatever reason awhile back, it went into the Australian topic group with a bunch of subjects. Somehow, I got to a listing of all the subjects on the gardenweb and I went through and clicked on every one that I thought I might have even a remote interest in. By doing that, these were listed off to the left side of the page. Now, when I want to go to one - usually Roses - I scroll down, click on it and I am there. I am quite sure anything I did was by accident, but it works for me. Hope this helps someone!

beesnees . I do not recall the details so forgive me, and since I cannot describe the problem with accuracy I probably should not have mentioned it. There are apparently many way to undermine someone if you do not read the fine print. It was several years ago and part of a round table discussion with several designers who had each had big issues with houzz.. What I do remember is that it pushed my "fairness button" when I heard it and I quit using houzz for anything after hearing the discussion. Previously I had clients send me houzz links to rooms they loved or hated rather like we used to do with magazine photos. Given enough pictures a good designer can choose just that tone that nurtures a person. Different for each of us and often elusive. Ha, Houzz was often most helpful in showing the wrong in design as they are not discriminating in what they picture on their site.

Alameda, that is what I do. The side list was introduced a couple of years ago to replace the top banner. It was one good change.

Judith do you do the Desktop save on an iPhone or Pad? or on a desktop computer. I use all at different times. I usually find it easier to manipulate through houzz on my desktop.

IE: I can Thank People and Like comments and I can even edit a comment after I post it and reread (often with horrible mistakes that need correcting)

Note: Judith I thought you would jump on my free Spot Shot Battery Sprayer and I would have mailed it to your farm. Have the box, have the direction book, have the charger, and it has a new 12v battery. I assume you have mechanically inclined workers who could tweak it easily to be a functional workhorse for you... better than a pump up or hose end for sure... It is still in my garage if you need it.

I LOVE my new 4 Sons Sprayer by the way- worth the $$ but very overdesigned. I told them they needed to make one for rosarians that is cheaper with less "gadgets". None of those guys are gardens I found out. Guess they use it for bugs or construction.

alameda and woidrose thank you so much for your help - your suggestions have been working and eliminated a huge irritation. 💙💙

Woodrose sorry typo

Something I hate is the "best answer" response.
