Your website seems to display incorrectly/I cannot use all your features, what's wrong? It might happen because you are using an outdated web browser or you have disabled some of its essential features. In order for the website to display correctly you must have JavaScript enabled and support for AJAX. The best solution would be to download the latest version of Firefox from http://getfirefox.com , that we strongly recommend. If the issue is not browser-related, please send us an email at support[at]mintarticles.com describing the problem you encountered.

I have changed my email. However I still cannot log in with my new email. You must confirm this change by visiting the confirmation link sent to your new email address. Until then, you will be able to log in only with your old email address.

I have not received the activation e-mail. If you are using Gmail, then most probably the activation email was sent to your spam folder. Please add MintArticles.com to your contact list to prevent this misunderstanding.
