resolved Photos

[ellicat]

1.How do we remove images from our own gallery ? After putting some up I've later realised some are crap, so it would be good to remove them and save the site some space as well.

2. Where are the pics from the old threads ? Some are missing making what sounds like a good story a bit disappointing. I like books with pictures:P

1. Currently only admin can delete images once they are uploaded. please email or pm the images you would like removed and we can see what we can do.

2. which pics from which threads? unsure what you are talking about, so a little more info and im sure i can help you out.

cheers

Yeh ellicat i have noticed that too. In all of the old threads the photos are gone. They are all just coming up as little red crosses like this.

Webmaster,

Here is one thread where they are obviously talking about what's in a pic, but there is no pic...

There are others I come across, but this was one I found in the Randoms this morning.

Thanks.

Here's a few more (all from the random posts today)

hi guys, yeah i know the problem - its cos the images are linked to the old forum. we will need to go into each thread and manually change the link to the new forum, or do some changes in the database. will get it fixed tho it may take a little while.

thanks all for picking this up!

Also, I've found that the pictures that I've been putting into the forum are tiny compared to other peoples pictures. I'm making the picture 100k, but it is only 213x160 pixels or something. If I make them 500x300 or something like that and they are over 100k, will they still work.

They need to satisfy both criteria. Make sure they are jpegs (*.jpg) and not bitmaps (*.bmp)

Just go here http://www.australianfishing.com.au/downloads/tools-and-programs/2.html cowfish, its AFO's image resizer and once you get the hang of its really easy/handy cause it does all the resizing for you.

All thanks to Feral who designed the program

Cowfish, assuming you are saving them as Jpegs, it will be the compression settings in what ever software you are using. (Also sometimes called \"quality\") if you can work out where to change the value, set it to 80 or 90% compression or slightly below best quality, that will halve the file size for no noticeable image quality loss
