Hello,
I have some problems with AP atm, since today I have to login again very often (which was like once a week before) and I have to fill in my password when I want to delete one of my photos. It saves it and it's filled in automatically everytime I want to delete one. Isn't this very unsave? When AP will be hacked again (as we experianced a few times before) all these passwords will be visible for the hackers! Can someone please explain what this new thing is?

True, I had to type my password while sharing my screen on Skype to Elias who posted here above and saw it all. I'm a bit disappointed. |

I think it's hacked, because normaly you would see dots when you fill in your password. I'm going to change it just to be sure.

Guys,
I appreciate your patience. We are upgrading the page so it will be more secure in future.
Rutger, you can set up your browser so it does not remember passwords. I corrected that, the password now isn't visible while you type.

The site keeps logging me out for no reason, please fix this issue as well. |

Hi Jan and Elias,
We have updated the log in code for the obvious reasons. Now the member will be logged off after 1 hour of inactivity.
I am sorry for this, it is inconvenient, but it is necessary.

i understand this is for better security ofcourse, but it's indeed quite inconvenient when you press a link and just want to like a photo quickly ;). but i rather login again than being hacked and losing my password |

The logging out concept is really annoying to be honest. Maybe if it was changed to log out every 6 hours, but every hour is ridiculous. I frequently visit the site to like a photo, but now it sucks. |

Jan,
I understand you and I am sorry for that, but it was introduced for security reasons.
