Attention PLEASE USE THE MEDIA LINK ...

[Lesley Jones]

Thanks for killing the download button. I'm trying to reply with quote - I expect this to be a cunning plan at the very least! (Drat - error message in the Javascript console - I had to delete the quote...)

 

[Hamish Gill]

have you got java script turned off?

 

[Lesley Jones]

Heaven only knows... I'm at work. Don't worry about it

 

[Kev Pugh]

Might be being a bit dumb but going to ask anyway, on my the 'New Posts' tab and 'New Photos' will it highlight how many new posts there are like the old Site did? Or am I just not seeing it?

 

[Hamish Gill]

when there are new photos or new comments on photos they appear under the new photos tab in just the way threads do

 

[Kev Pugh]

ok

 

[Dave Moss]

About 1.5 meg Brian! 7.7 is BIG!

Even a 10.2 mp picture is 5 mb

 

[Hamish Gill]

Yeah, but why would you upload an image that bit to a forum?

 

[Dave Moss]

True just got to remember to resize the pictures

 

[Glenn Clabo]

I don't know if it's because you are working on it Hamish...but trying to see "media" pics takes about 30 secs to load.

Edit...it's much better now.

Edit...now just a ? inside a box shows.

 

[Pete Askew]

Snappy for me.

 

[Hamish Gill]

This should be fixed now

Just posted an image to the Photography Showcase, Hamish. I had a wee story about the image. But when I went to post it the system told me there was a 200 character limit. I ended up deleting my wee story just so I could post the pic. Its not a big deal, but I just didn't know I was running out of available characters.

Just noticed that you can't quote someone in a reply in the showcase section - just an observation of a subtle difference in the commenting section

 

[Lesley Jones]

I've tried, but I can't quote a reply anywhere in the forum...

(Bloody, bloody Javascript error again. I get this about 50% of the times I try and post)

I had to update my java on the laptop last night before I could quote Lesley

Hamish, I posted one of my recent photos in the Showcase section. It is one photo from this year that I really like and I think it sort of typifies the kind of photography I do most. Is it ok to post a photo like that in the showcase even though its been previously posted in the Landscape forum?

 

[Lesley Jones]

Cheers Dave, but there is little I can do on my work PC. I have more time during my lunch break than I get at home, so that's when I like to read and post. Unforunately I can't see any of the showcase images either...

(Oh, I give up! I can't post at all without error messages popping up all over the place and I can't see what's being showcased either)

yes definitely, in fact I would go as far to say that is the point of the showcase

is it all the showcase photos? I did notice some of Glenns were not loading properly, I think that might be a size of upload issue ... he has now been given guidance on size so should be fine from here on in.

With regards to the java issue, the one thing I cant fix with regard to the forum is the software on your computer. make sure your browser is up to date and you should be fine!
