glens Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Type of image (format) is another consideration. For an actual photo it should be JPEG, for a screenshot PNG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modern cameras create huge files and then people think they should post them with no consideration for technical limitations. The 100 kB figure is probably a pretty good example of how small they should be before posting. All you have to do is resize to something which fills the screen in MS Paint. and no more It is all that the forum will show on anyone's browser screen. Happy New Year. WMcD You hit the bulls eye. A free app to resize digital image files is just a couple clicks away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WMcD Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Following the wisdom of others above, no bitmap files please, i.e. the ".bmp" extension. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's because Photobucket held a mass "stickup", demanding money from their constituency before they allowed the pictures to be used any longer.

It's the server. We can add additional storage to the current server but I'd rather move the forums to a newer server first. Unfortunately, given that I'm the only web guy here, and with other budgetary concerns, it's very very low on the priority list at this time. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

codewritinfool Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Why can't we have a gofundme for a new server, if @Chad specs it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I truly appreciate that, that would not be necessary. The resource issue has more to do with time than money. Thank you though. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd prefer that when funding and time are available, you use Intel based hardware. Help keep my factory busy! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
