    Website Image Posting Limitations

    How do we get the ability to be able to post more than 4 images/links in a thread ?

    I frequent the other forums often, and recently they have expanded their capability with larger image file sizes allowed, and unlimited number of image files and attachments per post. The limit we have here is only 4 images or 4 links per post, or combinations of 4.

    I know you guys are busy with the site, and volunteer lots of your time to maintain it, but it sure would be an advantage to all members to be able to get more "bang for the buck". It helps the overall knowledge base when we can show more info and images within each post.

    Take a look at this recent thread over at CF.....It 's like a book, but it sure gets the info out there in one sweep.
    C1 & C2 Corvettes - Dashlights - All dashlights don't work, is it a mass problem? Is there a dimmer in the headlight button for the dashlights? And there is a light in the footspace? When is it on? There is no button in the door? Thanks


    In fact, fellow member Dave Zuberer created a pdf of that thread for the archives. We have co-authored many documents from CF help threads and it would be ideal to do that here on the TDB. After all, WE ARE , the Restoration Society.

    p.s. I will help if I can to make this happen.

    Richard,

    With our new server I think we can expand the number of uploads allowed. I have changed it to unlimited for now and we will see if there are any negative results.

    Thanks for bringing this to our attention.

        Thanks very much. I guess you'll have to let the cat outa' the bag now. And change the "Limit of 4 files" info in the Download shell.

          Did the limit change ? It was set to unlimited by John W months ago.

          2 mornings in a row I've created a thread with many more than 4 images and now I'm getting 403 errors.

            Rich,

            I have made no changes. It may be a problem with one or more of your image files. Be careful if you get too many 403 errors the server will completely lock you out.

              Hmmm, same pictures from my computer and view fine. Maybe a corrupted one but they all view fine in the thread. When I submit it I get the error.

              Happened yesterday and I re-tried several times and it locked me out. Gary fixed me up after that. I tried a whole new thread again this morning( a 1 hour composition) and 403 error again but I stopped after the first error so I wouldn't get locked out again. It's still on my wifes laptop in the house. Running MS 8.2 but I've done dozens of threads here with many photos no problems.

              I'll check some things on it when I go in for lunch.

              Thanks, and I'll let you know the outcome.

              Rich

                John I sent you a email with the thread composition after the error. It changed the text.
