Hi ALL,
due to bug inside the forum software and the backup problem
with the increasing attachment size folder ( which is now already 4.5 GigaBytes big)
I have deceided to reduce the file attachment size to
50 Kbytes maximum per file.
This has the advantage, that every picture attachment must be smaller or equal
50 Kbytes, which is okay for e.g. 800x600 JPEG pics at
a good enough compression rate.
Please if you don?t have any freeware image software use
something like
www.Irfanview.comor
www.Gimpshop.comor
www.Picasa.comfor your image editing software and then compress your digital pictures
to less than 50 Kbytes before uploading them to over here.
This also has the advantage, that people with slow dialup
connection or PDAs with slow GPRS connection will
be able to see your pictures.
So learn how to compress your JPEG pictures.
Also be sure to upload your Pictures with a unique filename
as it might be, that generic filenames are already uploaded and
new pictures must have a unique filename which is not already in
the attachment folder.
If you have bigger files like PDF files
please use free services like
www.megaupload.comor
www.rapidshare.deto upload your bigger files and just post the
link to the files over here.
This will save me very much work for
backup and ensures the forum to continue to work
without trouble.
If you want to upload videos, please upload them
to
www.youtube.comand just post the links over here.
As I will soon have a new video section over here,
where I will have a videoportal of the best free energy related Youtube videos,
Youtube video uploads are the preferred methods to share
videos.
Hope this helps and reduces the trouble to download bigger files...
Many thanks for understanding and your support.
Regards, Stefan.
