I'm hesitant to send pics to Chris as it seems like an additional load to impose on the administration (which is top notch... site has a great layout and runs like a well oiled machine) Central hosting certainly makes sense though, especially for archival purposes. It's frustrating to read through the old threads and find missing photos...

I'm well aware of the pitfalls of allowing direct uploads, so I guess I'm just looking for either a confirmation that you don't mind the extra work or a response suggesting that you'd rather us find our own host space.

Perhaps "verbose" replies are only needed if a filename needs to be changed. This might cut the load a bit, and it easy to edit a post if neccesary to avoid conflict.

Thanks for the terrific site,

Matthias

so if someone want some embedding pics in his post ... 1st have to send pics to chris?
How are done those posts with the pics explaining something? i.e how to make a sling?

Thank you very much  for the info, matthias i have no webpage yet, and i've started some of it on my hard disk (status: larvae) i still have to make a lot of pics and write a lot of text to set it up but i think uploading pics to the account will be nice, at least for posting the pics with explanations here

Hi David, yes i've received your e-mail, i think i'll try to sign up  one of those  "store your photos" account and link the desired pic when posting, so i don't increase loadwork of somebody
Thank you very much
