Tony Posted March 18, 2007 Report Share Posted March 18, 2007 You can now upload images directly through wim. This decision by the committee elevates wim above the others since this privilege is free.. Another first by wim. We need to conserve the bandwidth so you will need to control your image uploads. Message from Scarface:- ............................................. Members can now post images on WIM. Each member has 10mb of Global Space to use, after which they will have to delete files, before posting new ones. If anyone has problems posting, please say so here. ............................................. Happy days :graduated: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted March 18, 2007 Report Share Posted March 18, 2007 Nice one :graduated: Just an idea but now that we can upload images how about creating a section dedicated to just images? Keeps them all in the same place then... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keeps them all in the same place then... Not really possible since the image would be topic specific and violate the section/sub-sections.

Rich Posted March 18, 2007 Report Share Posted March 18, 2007 Yeah that's true but then you could have a general images section where members can show photos of their cars, mods etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahmet Posted March 18, 2007 Report Share Posted March 18, 2007 What you mean is a Gallery ......... this can be done, however it's not free to purchase from Invision (company that provide forum) Therefore, that's probably something that will be available when the membership scheme is introduced !

Rich Posted March 18, 2007 Report Share Posted March 18, 2007 A gallery could be used but as we can now upload our own images with our posts I just thought a dedicated photo section would be more ideal if they aren't specific to another area on the forum? Or I have plenty of free webspace to host my own images and I'm sure plenty of others have their free webspace via their ISP. I wouldn't mind making a little 'how-to' to help users upload/host their own images Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahmet Posted March 18, 2007 Report Share Posted March 18, 2007 What you was reffering to earlier, as a central place for all to see the images that have been uploaded, would be a 'gallery' this is like an add-on for the forum, something that hasn't yet been put into place We did have a 'Garage' where members could list there cars / mods, but it decided to go pearshape on it's own .... and now they charge for that script ! - Nothing's free anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted March 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2007 We are back to the "Gold fee" here. As genourous as wim is there is a limit. If members want to open a Garage then try a poll and see how many would be prepared to pay the Gold fee of £9.99. Cover the cost then a garage there will be.

Rich Posted March 18, 2007 Report Share Posted March 18, 2007 Yeah but if a gallery wasn't used, i.e. we host our photos etc then there should be no extra charge should there as you're not using a gallery that Invision supplies? I just thought having a section dedicated to general images of cars, mods etc would be easier for people to find rather than have them in different sections. Was just an idea!

Rich Posted March 18, 2007 Report Share Posted March 18, 2007 How about creating it under the general section as Images or whatever you think is appropriate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you are getting confused mate, it's not the 'storage' place that it provides, it's the 'add-on' to enable a gallery view of the images in the forum ! How about creating it under the general section as Images or whatever you think is appropriate? Here you go.... http://www.wheels-inmotion.co.uk/forum/ind...ic=1008&hl= I've sent you a PM mate ........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted March 18, 2007 Report Share Posted March 18, 2007 That would work but then everyone's photos will be under one thread. If this built up after a while there could be quite a few pages! Was thinking more of a sub section under general, that way people can start their own threads for their own photos, would make searching easier anyway. Up to you though, you're the boss!
