While trying to post a 800x600 pic last night I found I had to re size the thing (re sample)
just to get the forum to take it... that is aggravating to say the least!
so I got in there just now and upped the size to 300KB  under the right type of pictures
this is a large amount and should support many pictures but when the picture is High color and High def it is still rather small leaving you with one or 2 pictures per post at the most
... Sense memory is not infinant I have to limit the size of the pictures or risk filling the server
in a short time....
...
this should make it easier for some of you guys to post your pictures ! try it again <GRIN>
...
also when we back up the forum we do not ( and cannot) back up the pictures unfortionately...
so if the forum ever crashes we will loose the pictures and they will have to be re-posted
...this is bad at best...but we do not have the capasity to back up the forum on a regular basis
( daily as Kim is doing) and back up the pictures as well... we have a Dial-up connection and that is SLOW... backing up the sites pictures too would take many Hours !
so if it does "CRASH" and eat all the data... (unlikely) it will be left to you the user to re post your pictures where you had them previously ...
Thank ya !
