We've just enabled post attachments on the forum, this will allow you to upload an image which will be displayed inside your posts.

A new option now appears under the text entry area when you are posting called "File attachment", simply click "Browse", find and s elect an image from your local pc and post as usual.

Allowed file formats are jpg, gif and png, maximum image size is 75kb

Bump!

Excellent, this is a very good addition.

Nice one, this place is evolving pretty quickly.

Won't this eat up all the db space? [:^)]

 

[MikeP]

It depends how David has set it up, the files might be stored on the server itself and referenced through the DB, rather than pulling the images out the DB (as BLOBS for the techies)

We have unlimited db space, well as much as the hard disk will take!

Good stuff!

Theres no such thing as unlimited space though!! Would soon fill up I would guess?

Im not seeing this, is this feature still available?

Bump! Don't think I've seen this one used yet - will save you lot having to find a free image host to post your pictures on the forum.

 

[David]

I've just used it []

 

[GaryM]

This is what I see when replying, where will I find the attachment bit?

 

[W36 EJO]

No one is using it because we don't have the option, or at least I cannot see any kind of attachment option when writing a message anywhere.

 

[Cat1.4]

Must be a permissions thing, I've got the box. Come to think of it, only seen it being used once & that was by Chris

 

[David]

You should all be able to see it now

 

[W36 EJO]

Fraid not.

 

[GaryM]

Nope, still the same as the image I posted above.

 

[W36 EJO]

My bad, can see it on another thread, but not on this one, possibly because us minions don't have the power to post without a mod allowing us on here [] so might have something to do with not having the attachment box.

 

[GaryM]

Its now appeared!!
