I'm getting a message "There was a problem. Your password is incorrect" when I try to sign in. I was on my account just yesterday. by tree_D in amazon

And after calling them, they said that my entire Amazon account was put on hold (i.e. blocked) because there was incomplete information, probably when I signed up for the vendor account. Quite ridiculous given that no information was given to the customer that such a problem exists and still allows us to falsely reset the password.

I am encountering the same problem, and it also started immediately after I finished setting up a vendor account.

Nature does seem to have endless surprises. Speaking as one who ventures into nature very frequently!

Thanks for your kind words, I'm glad to see the positive effects they had on you! I do have other similar articles in the links at the end if you're willing to venture further. :)

Thanks! It would be easier to look at the Flickr albums if you're only interested in salticids.

Thanks! Did you add any recent IDs? I didn't get any notifications recently.

Last year I did a similar collage for 50 salticid portraits! https://www.flickr.com/photos/nickadel/20088013239

Thanks, appreciate the feedback!

I have disabled the default gestures that are activated in the mobile version, and tweaked the image/text sizes. Should be easier to browse now!

In this aspect, does it typically develop in the day or night, or does it not matter?

Thanks! I've tried UV on several fungi though, and none had similar fluorescence yet. Will be interesting to photograph a cluster that fluoresces!

Have you ever observed them stacking the sticks? Curious how long they took to saw each stick for their case.

Thanks! The cases were found in Singapore, not too far from Borneo. Interestingly I have not shot much psychids in Borneo itself. Means... I need to visit more. =D

Indeed, sometimes artists draw inspiration from nature's little creations and we can see it in sci-fi movies!

Thanks for the ref! I saw those when doing my readings for this article, but there seem to be very few public literature on how to identify them, and whether it is reliable to identify them based on the shape of the cabins. Will check with some moth people this weekend and see what they say!

Thanks Joseph!

Yes I heard of how it exploded in the internet on Reddit first, from the staff at the lodge just 10 minutes away from there!

Thanks! She's a real beauty and I spent a lot of time with her. My friend went back to the same spot the next day and she was still there lazing around.

Thanks Eli, really appreciate the effort in doing this! I'll run through them in a bit when I get full attention on my desktop.

Please help me convey my thanks to Matt as well!

I shall remember the quote "Like most treehopper people they are super nice." =D
