Having trouble getting pictures loaded up.  600p wide X 800p hi or less.  Tried jpg and png.  Won't let me load any up!  :(

linking to them from other sites (flickr, - whatever) is the only way i know of. e.g. - typing the non-shift version of {IMG}www.whatever.com/pic.jpg{/IMG}

You should be able to attach pictures, however there is a file size limit of 200kb (per message) for all attachments, max 4 attachments.

You can upload images to the gallery, which has a bigger limit.

I tried to keep the limits low because I wanted to keep the bandwidth and filespace usage on my hosting with limits... (not that we are anywhere near either)

A method used on another forum I go on is to have a link to the pics rather than directly show them.  That way it is a faster load up and doesn't eat so much space.

Oh yeah, what do you think to my wee beastie?

It's a mechanical monstrosity for (spitting the words out)  warhammer 40k Necrons.

Thanks to eldest and my tendency to go for games with figures, i've ended up playing the damn game and now help run a couple of school clubs.

Thats more than i ever did with 40k, well done. I think i might like a new 40k fps i've seen, - if it ever comes out...I like the universe, just not strategy or learning rules.  ;)
