lol ---- Personally I would lower the resolution. No website is going to display a 21mb photo and they are just going to eat storage space on your phone. You have to realize, of you to post a 21mb photo, everyone that views the thread would have to download that 21mb to see the thread. That'll take awhile on a phone for example, not to mention chew up your data.

All that said, I'm looking into image reducer as we speak.

64 gigs, plenty of space- totally get we cant/dont want to host pics that big- being able to print posters from phone photos is nice!

oh to clarify I was talking in units of mega-pixel, not mega-byte- but yes I get that.
 
This site took less time to figure out than Forabodiesonly.com and seems a bit more user friendly! Some times you can teach and old dog new tricks.

Well, much of the site was built on the lessons learned from the software that runs FABO. In fact, the same three guys that designed that software, designed this software.
 
Ok.

After some post edits and quick e-mail notifications everything seems to work well! Guess with more activity you have a winner!

Well, making this site a winner is just one part of it. The bigger part of it is really testing out the software, looking for things that are missing, finding things that members have problems with so I can either fix those troubles or explain things better.

Glad you like it though!

I have used both a PC running Win10 and an iphone6 and are happy with both. I will check with iPad as well!

Much like Abodies my posts have always resized pics automatically unless linked to an outside website. When you asked for HD pics on Abodies the only way to post them "real" sized was through linking them.

Things like that are the reason I will eventually be upgrading the sites to this software. This software is being actively developed and improved, the software the rest of the sites runs on is not.
 
As you know I'm over at FBBO allot and noticed this forum lets me upload pics from windows 8 without going threw the desktop, nice. Question, why do all of the pics show up so small? Over at FBBO the pics upload nice and big but here I feel like I have to click on all of them to get a decent look which kinda stinks.
 
Is there a way to set alerts based on key words? For instance, if someone is looking for Valiant Fenders they could have an alert set to receive notification if someone posts relative to "Valiant Fenders"? Something that is more real time notification rather than using search options once logged on.

You might want to post some basics as there seems to be few people with an Avatar showing! Maybe they do not want one or just do not know how to link "Post" one.

Because some people haven't realized yet that after you upload the image, you have to click the insert Full Image button to get the image full size.

Coming. I have to write a whole new set of "How To's" but don't want to do that just yet because I cannot be sure everything will stay exactly the same yet.
