MuzikTyme Posted July 3, 2004 Report Posted July 3, 2004 Is there any way to put a limit on the size of images in the data base? It's annoying to me when someone posts a huge image that can't even be seen unless one scrolls around it. Not only that, but it ruins the thread because now one must scroll sideways to read a friggin' post. Can anything be done? People don't seem to care. Who buys a picture too big for their wall? So, why pick a picture too big for the screen? There's an exercise done with the head, it's called thinking.

Sara Posted July 4, 2004 Report Posted July 4, 2004 We can not limit the size of the pictures people insert into their posts because it is done using links to pics on other servers. We never have control of the actual files. I've asked that people please keep pictures small. Here's a friendly reminder.... PLEASE select small pictures for your posts. It makes it easier to read and the pages will load faster. Thank you everybody!
MindCrime Posted July 4, 2004 Report Posted July 4, 2004 Most of the time I use an image in my post, I save it to my drive, then resize it on paint or word, then I upload it to my Online Photo Album & post it directly from there.
TheCyberdemon Posted July 4, 2004 Report Posted July 4, 2004 That's exactlly why I try to make most of the picture I post.

Sara Posted July 9, 2004 Report Posted July 9, 2004 New Rules for Posting Images We now have specific board rules posted that include guidelines about using images. I have been going through recent posts and editing those with images to conform to these guidelines. I've been leaving a little marker that says "Please read the new image rules." Please do not take this as a negative mark on your post in any way. I didn't want to edit the posts and leave the author not understanding why. It seemed like the easiest way to get the word out. Also, I can't go through the entire board and edit all the older posts. Those pictures will remain for the time being and eventually will fade out as the threads age. Thanks everyone!
Brian Posted July 9, 2004 Report Posted July 9, 2004 Eventually, the users on dial up will thank you, but they are STILL waiting for the page to load. ::
