David i'm trying to put images on a post, you know hyperlinks, the problem is only some can see it and others can't. I was wondering if you could give me any ideas on the problem, like what i maybe doing wrong.
What i am doing is copying the hyperlink and replacing the
http://domain.com/image_path in the hyperlink for images and putting in the URL address from the photo in it's place then submiting the post.
Baz. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It would be a problem with hotlinking to pics,
those for whom it works would already have an account at either Yahoo or MSN respectively.
I have a yahoo ac and the first one worked, I don't have MSN (and I don't want it) and the second one didn't
All these photo storage
services are a PITA, either get your own site or use this one.
hmm, I just tried to give you a link, but this system tells me it does not exist, strange coz it's running in another window right now, conspiracy perhaps.
just copy and paste instead

Baz....... what I think would be really cool is if members had a small amount of space on the
forum server for say a couple of piccies. Then we don't have to go through the pain of uploading to different sites, using different software, ets, ets.
Just a small amount of space for each member would suffice, no need for text or headings or anything, just upload a piccy, and post a post explaining about it.
If you change your piccie, then the old post will simply show the new picture....... too bad.
On the Overlander
forum, you simply just post anything, text, piccies...... although they have just recently had to have a purge, because of the vast increase in piccie postings, seems everyone has a digital camera now.
I'm sure that my idea would make life easier for all, now we've just got to convince the Sicker God....
Did you watch Cher the other night on ABC? I think half the
forum did......... she is one wicked lady!

Guys,
This idea is not out of the question however I must work out the costs involved in this facility. Currently without pics we transfer (last month) 155GB of traffic in and out of the server. This is a massive amount and for the most part is generated by the
forum. We are using a reverse traffic charge model and we have an excellent data price and it is still bloody expensive.
There are options and choices to what we can offer however it would require funding. If people are prepared to pay a service charge for this provision then I could look into the logistics.
Maybe time for a poll on this one - we have not used the poll system for a while.
