There is now a new way of attaching attachments to this place. You can:

* attach up to four images at once
* images are automatically thumbnailed - click the thumnails to see the bigger version
* last but not least... you can edit and delete attachments!

The images are plonked into a directory instead of the database. This help us in several ways - saves database, bandwidth and file space.

Testing, one, two, three...

If you're wondering what about existing attachments? Well, we will be culling any attachment over three months old - starting today - and on the first of each month.

If you want an image to last longer than that *and* it is of huge interest to the majority of members (ie it's a technical modification, something like DOVW images of real interest or similar), you MUST either:

* use your own web space (preferred)

* e-mail it to me or one of the other mods, and we'll upload it ... but be warned it's gotta be of HUGE public interest for us to do this

Our attachment space is a finite resource and we can't host them forever.

Please report any and all bugs to me.

Okay, attachments MUST have one of the following extensions to be posted successfully:

.gif

Please use lower case for the extension. I'm working on the Macintosh issue and the no-display issue.

So every time you make a change in format or what ever we loose the previous pics?

All of the thumbnails have disappeared that were here......

Would have saved me about 30 minutes of cursing and swearing!!!:cry
