+keewee Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 That would be great. I was wanting one of each, so Whatever you have extra would be awesome. I will have to look through my traders. If you could email me a screenshot or the exact text of the error message you're getting, I will try to figure out what's going on. I'm sorry you're having such issues. Wow I just noticed this post. I went back and it is still doing it. Here is the message... Cookie Usage We have detected that your browser does not support cookies, or cookies have been disabled.

The other thing could be that there are too many cookies on your computer and they need to be cleaned out. The other thing to try is defragging your harddisk. Quote Link to comment
GregsonVaux Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Yesterday I received a large number of coins in the mail. I activated the first seven without any trouble. However, when I got to my water otters, I couldn't activate any of them. It seems that the activation problem is with that particular coin and not with Groundspeak in general. Quote Link to comment

All of those options have been checked with no change. Maybe if I just turn the anti-virus OFF. Wait, I shouldn't do that. Problem with most anti virus software packs is they only protect against know problems.Anything that is new will still hit your system. Your best defense against viruses isn't a software package but in your actions while online. Its when you go to bad web sites and click on links in unknown emails that you run into problems. Often people get viruses cause they get a pop up and click, and allow something to be installed on there system. I haven't ran any kind of virus or malware protection on my system in years and haven't had any problem. I know what to look for and what to avoid. More importantly i keep everything updated regularly. MS has its on protection built into windows. Its called MRT (Malicious Removal Tool). Every time there is a windows update that automatically runs. Sure anti virus software does look for actions that may be from a virus but there are too many false positives that cause way to many problems for me to deal with it. I think its safe to say that AS Design is a safe web page and can be trusted for now. You can leave just that web page up then disable the virus protection long enough to enable cookies and do what you need to do on the site and through pay-pal. When your done re enable the virus protection. Quote Link to comment

+anne.and.eli Posted May 1, 2011 Author Share Posted May 1, 2011 LewisClan77, I sent you an email asking for some more questions about your browser configuration. It might be that your browser needs to be re-installed? Hopefully with more info I can start tracking down the issue. Quote Link to comment

+keewee Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Wow those otters sure do swim fast!!!! They've crossed the wide expanses of the Pacific Ocean already and clambered onto my desk! I haven't any fish to feed them but I can sure tell they've been eating fish - SMELLY! Anne - they are absolutely fantastic!!! The photo's don't do them justice - congratulations on them!

+Six Little Spookies Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 I had to fly out to CA and left before the mail came. Now I have to wait until Saturday to get my otters! Quote Link to comment
GregsonVaux Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 Anne - they are absolutely fantastic!!! The photo's don't do them justice - congratulations on them! Agreed. The otters are cute, but it is the other side with the fish and the plants that really impresses me. The depth and illusion of peering into another world is just outstanding. Quote Link to comment

I heard back from Groundspeak today re: activation codes, and they are looking into them. I hope to hear back tomorrow, and I shall let you all know what's goin' on with that. Quote Link to comment

+the4dirtydogs Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Any word on the activation codes? I'm sure GS was busy today but I was just wondering if you heard back. I was able to activate a couple of the otters using the GS Activation Code Retrieval, but now I have "exceeded my activation limit" according to their system!!!! LOL!!! Too many coins I guess......maybe I should cut back!! Quote Link to comment
+anne.and.eli Posted May 5, 2011 Author Share Posted May 5, 2011 No word, still. I'll send an email tomorrow if I haven't heard back by mid day. Quote Link to comment
Maine Family Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 I activated mine through GS activation retrieval and it was a different activation code than what was on the flip. Quote Link to comment
+anne.and.eli Posted May 6, 2011 Author Share Posted May 6, 2011 I activated mine through GS activation retrieval and it was a different activation code than what was on the flip. Yah, the unique activation codes work, but I requested a common activation code which should have replaced the unique ones. I have no idea what the hangup is, and I've sent another email but they are likely quite busy and I have not heard back. I apologize for the trouble, everyone. Hopefully it will get fixed quickly. In the meantime, you can use the "retrieve a code" link on the activation page. Quote Link to comment
+PrashadFamily Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 AHHHH - I log on after a bit of a hiatus and the new coins are all absolutely fantastic! My daughter LOVES anything otter and I know she would die for one of these. Are there, or will there be any more for sale?? Quote Link to comment
+Fianccetto Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 My order arrived across the Atlantic. Those otters did well, what with carrying the cats all the way, and no falling out, either! Keewee is right, photos don't do them justice, they are beautiful, and lovely to hold. Thank you! Quote Link to comment
+redwingrr Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 The otters are fabulous! I got them all so I could decide in person which ones to keep... but, I can't part with any of them! They're just beautiful. BTW, Anne, my Feline Finder icon is working now - thank you! Quote Link to comment

My daughter LOVES anything otter and I know she would die for one of these. Are there, or will there be any more for sale?? There are still a few left of two of the versions.

I'm really pleased that everyone is liking the coins, thanks so much! I will probably do a run of 2 or 3 more versions, I am considering doing a non/limited enamel version as one of them.

+weezels Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 ooh! those are sweeeet! Of course the water otter is a cousin to the ferret (land otter!) so we have a natural attraction to that LOL I'll have to see if I can muster up some extra $ and hopefully purchase 1 or 2 next week!! Most likely the white one, since we have an albino ferret. Any chance on doing a ferret design? Havent seen any yet! Quote Link to comment
+anne.and.eli Posted September 13, 2011 Author Share Posted September 13, 2011 I don't have any current plans to do a ferret coin, but I'll keep it in mind when I'm doodling. There are only a couple otter coins left! Quote Link to comment
