Attachments

Metro guys...what does "Sorry, board attachment quota has been reached" mean?
I never had trouble putting up pictures before.

Each member has a maximum amount of attachement space on the Metro servers to use, and when you hit the limit you can't do any more attachments. Easier to use Photobucket or something and avoid the issue altogether.

Oh hell, that means doing something new on a computer. I've never messed with Photo Bucket but will look into it. And maybe delete some old posts with pics attached, if they don't mess up a thread (like I'm Larry or Mark or Neil or somebody smart)

It's definitely better for us if you host the photos on another site. We've got a few gigs of uploaded materials already, and with the size of the forum database, we're pushing the comfortable limits of operation.

It's very easy to use an image host. You can try imageshack, it's free...

1) Go to http://imageshack.us" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
2) Upload your photo(s)
3) Copy the "direct link to image" url they provide
4) Paste that url between image tags in your forum post, like:

Code: Select all
