Our new photo uploader is a “java applet.” Because of this, your
computer wants to know if it is “trusted.” If the trust message
continues to pop up for you each time you choose to create a new show,
you need to let it know that it should always trust this applet.
Doing this requires that you click on the “always trust” option when
the certificate window pops up. This is easy to do. On the PC, this is
typically in the window that pops up and no further windows are
required to be shown. Just make sure the “always trust” button is check
marked when you click on “trust.” See below.

On the Macintosh, this is not on the main window. You will need to
click on “show certificate” to get to the option to “always trust.”

Then scroll down to the “trust settings.”

The default status will be “Use System Settings.”

Choose “Always Trust” and then click on the Trust button.

This will do away with the need to continually verify that this is a trusted applet.

Dawn McCurdy came up with a creative way to sell a home that needed a
lot of work. She used honesty and the "Mission Impossible" theme song
from our Just For Fun music library, to give this real
fixer-upper a great marketing piece. She decided not to take a "this
house doesn’t deserve a Show" approach to marketing the home.
"We were all talking about why we shouldn’t put photos of it or
showcase it as it is in such need of repair," Dawn said. "Then, we
thought, why not. When you advertise something as needing work, the
first questions buyers and agents have is "Like what?" So we figured
each photo was at least worth 1,000 words, and if you can’t say
something nice, well you know the rest!"

"They just wanted it sold, which we did in 1 day!"
"Thank you so much for your great product," Dawn continued. "I love
seeing all the ideas and only wish I tapped into 10% of what you can
do."
Dawn, thank you for permission to share this wonderful idea!
