File attachments

[weebl]

Due to the fact that the database for the forum attachments is so large it gives Godzilla an inferiority complex I've made a small change.

Registered users can now only use 500k of forum attachments

Jolly Nice Chaps get use 1meg worth.

Of course you can host images yourself using whatever webspace you like. It's just that all the attachments are taking their tole on the server.

You can free up your available space by deleting old attachments of course.

from a thread in fanart:

use these to host images on other servers.



As all users that post in this section know it sometimes can be very annoying to have the dreaded "white box with the off-orange cross" appear instead of a lovely (opinions differ ) crafted picture...

I therefore have done a search for the current sites that allow hotlinking...

http://www.strike9.com/ seems alright
http://www.0catch.com/ ditto
http://www.sigup.com/ haven't tried it, but looks goood and made esp. for forum use...
http://www.gladiatorhosting.com/ if nnot for hotlinking then for use of php and cgi
http://www.portland.co.uk/hosting.esp

That's all for now...
Hope these are of some help to you...

If you find more, PM me and I'll edit it in...

It let's you shorten current urls if they're a bit long and prevents the nasty white box with the off-orange cross of doom.
