How do pix get uploaded here?
How do pix get uploaded here?
Or, more general:
How to attach pix to the posts: Do they go into a database and can be used by all? Or do we refer to our own machines? Any size/format restrictions?
Anyway, what must I do to get a pic to appear in a post?

Sincere condolences to all Norwegians! I guess you will need some aquevit to get over this.
Re: How do pix get uploaded here?
When posting a new post you have an "upload attachment" thingie below the window you're writing in. That will help you along. AFAIK it does tell you about size limitations.
Re: How do pix get uploaded here?
Correct, currently we have the size limited to 256KB and a limit of 10 pics per post. But if needed, we can change that. Currently we still have the problem that they aren't properly displayed, instead you get this annoying scroll window. We hope to have that fixed soon.When posting a new post you have an "upload attachment" thingie below the window you're writing in. That will help you along.

Re: How do pix get uploaded here?
ok, experimented a bit, if you place stuff inline per the button and then correct position manually the result is acceptable (see http://airdisaster.info/10/forums/viewt ... p?f=8&t=22)

Re: How do pix get uploaded here?
I actually like the scroll window quite a bit. If you click on it it goes away and shows the picutre in full view. Then if you click again it goes back to a scroll window. I think that will be quite helpful for when people post pics that are too wide; it will keep the rest of the page from becoming hard-to-read.Correct, currently we have the size limited to 256KB and a limit of 10 pics per post.

While true, I think mods should simply resize those pics and pass a slap on the hand to the offender: Saves bandwith and educates ppl for thinking about that.-snip- I actually like the scroll window quite a bit.

True, but with the scroll window the mods don't have to spend their time policing it and sometimes a big picture is helpful. Especially if it's a detailed shot of a crash scene for the armchair investigators.While true, I think mods should simply resize those pics and pass a slap on the hand to the offender: Saves bandwith and educates ppl for thinking about that.-snip- I actually like the scroll window quite a bit.

At any rate, we don't have to agree, but I'm a fan of the click-on/click-off scroll window.

Re: How do pix get uploaded here?
I have to agree with Halfie on this. It's more comfortable to scroll a page down when you saw the pictures already the time before you again are reading new threads on the same page.True, but with the scroll window the mods don't have to spend their time policing it and sometimes a big picture is helpful.

Didn't we determine on the last forum that we were manly long-lost soulmates? Just more evidence pouring in.I have to agree with Halfie on this. It's more comfortable to scroll a page down when you saw the pictures already the time before you again are reading new threads on the same page.

It's too bad we can't post a large picture that sizes it's self to a specific window dimension but can be blown up to full size when needed.

I've never been able to upload here. I usually just upload it to facebook or wherever is convenient and then embed the image.Trying to upload some pictures but I keep getting " image upload file is invalid" Why?
