No where near quota
Posted: Fri Nov 23, 2007 12:11 pm
I had only 5 pictures loaded and it tells me I have hit my quota. I see other people are having the same problem. Its starting again.....
With the board growing more and more and more people loading photos and files I fear we are in for another crash. Has there been any talk deleting some old pictures 2005 or maybe doing like some other boards are doing and having the members use photobucket for posting pictures? Also addressing the size issue of the photos, I know some are so huge you cant even see it, you have to scan all over the screen to see the pictures.
Maybe a suggestion and I know many wont like my suggestion but its must a suggestion to help and try to avoid another crash. I know in the Free Section you cant have photobucket host a file so maybe have just the JPEG upload feature in that section turned on and turn off the feature in the show off section and have the members use Photobucket or Webshots or some other free online host for the pictures and then the members can create a HTML code so the pictures will show up in the post. I have been doing this more and more. Many here do that already to try and save on another meltdown. But the new members may not know about photobucket and others, its very simple. Also they may not know about picture sizing. The larger the picture the more MB it eats up and the total forum has a limit.
This is what happen before we crashed last time. People started having trouble loading pictures and were getting the quota limit notice.
Thank you for your time.
