Bad news... |

Hey Folks, |
|
I was notified this morning that this forum is getting close to |
|
capacity of available storage for attachments and photos. This |
|
was something I totally over looked when I set the forum up. |
|
Foolish on my part I know, I should have known when I set it up |
|
that the "free" package would be limited. I apologize if this |
|
causes a problem when you go to attach photos to your posts. I |
|
guess we'll have to play it by ear. |
|
Unfortunately we're unable to pay for extra storage at the |
|
moment and Lisa and I are not interested in making this forum |
|
something YOU have to pay to be a part of so let's just see what |
|
happens. I figured the amount of storage that was included in |
|
the "free" package would be enough to support us for quite some |
|
time but this forum took off much faster then I could have |
|
expected, it's a good problem to have ::) |
|

I'm not 100% sure, I'm looking into it but I think it's $20 a |
|
month. It's nothing outrageous. I just don't know exactly how it |
|
works, one more thing to look in to lol. |

a suggestion for you John ... since you ID my fish for me :). |
|
people can have their photos stored on photo bucket or flickr |
|
and just link to them to have them display in the posts. you |
|
could do a sticky tutorial thread to show people how to do it. |
|
Something along these lines |

I second that idea. Disable attachments and we can just link to |
|
photobucket and YouTube. All the other forums I frequent do it |
|
that way. |

I was wondering how long it would be before 'that' limit was |
|
reached. |
|
Freddie is spot on with his suggestion. I personally like |
|
Photobucket, and my 10GB of storage. |
|
Quick and easy, drag your photo to your account, select your |
|
newly uploaded image and select 'img' under Share Links. |

I'm just now seeing everyone's suggestions on this, I like it!! |
|
Maybe I can set it up where only moderators can post pics? This |
|
way I can put up special items and stuff? |

Using this method you can even link to special offer images on |
|
the kgtropicals website or another website. No need to use up |
|
the forum storage space. |
|
For example: |
|
Find the website image that you want to use. (the kgtropicals |
|
logo from the bottom of the homepage) |
|
Right click on the image and select properties. |
|
http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah269/mhn_brn/Other%20Stuff/1_zpsee60c015.j… |
|
Copy the address URL from the properties page |
|
http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah269/mhn_brn/Other%20Stuff/2_zpse392fb78.j… |
|
Open the Reply or New Message box on the Tank Talk forum. |
|
Click on the Insert Image button |
|
http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah269/mhn_brn/Other%20Stuff/3_zpsec8997ed.j… |
|
Paste the URL between the image tags |
|
http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah269/mhn_brn/Other%20Stuff/4_zpsb3703e21.j… |
|
