What about pictures that are already uploaded on the server? (A pic you have previously used, so you don't upload it again) They don't get automaticly thumbnailed if you are going to use them again.

Nothing happens with them. Those are and stay as they are.

But IF there is a thumbnail created(as it has been since the end of september with every upoload), then the picture should be posted with the HTML code.

Okay, but if I upload something today and post the thumbnail, then want to post the same pic tomorrow (off my upload list), it's going to be full size. Is this okay, or is there a way to thumnail an already uploaded pic each time you use it? I apologize if I'm missing something. :smile: Thanks Anno

You can lookup the HTML code for your picture here:

http://www.shroomery.org/thumbnail.php

If you can see the thumbnail at the bottom of the page, then a thumbnail to your picture exists and you can post the provided HTML code.

If not, then not.

When you open the post, the thumbnail picture is opened, the size of it is around 1/10th of the original image.
If the picture is new for you, and the thumbnail looks promising, you might click on it, then it opens in the new window as big picture.

If you open the post next time, you will already know the poicture, and you won?t click on the image again.
Thus, instead of loeading the same big picture everytime you open the post, you will open the big picture only 1 time.

If you want to post picture for artistic effect, there is allways the possibility to save the pictures on an external server, and link the picture to your post using the
[image]URL[/image]
tags.

What you need is to get an account with one of the many free hosting companies, upload the pictures there, and link them to your post.

You can find many free webspace providers here:

Also this is a host:
www.imagemagician.com


Att: a few of the providers (phisically) block external linking.
Trial and error is requied to determine this.

Re: posting pictures [Re: jimsuzo]
    #956901 -

Ok, I found what?s causing the problem: For some reason, when you copy and paste the code to your post, spaces are added into the code.

Like here:
<a href="https://files.shroomery.org/files/100602-15/54001-cup-o-gold.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="/forums/thumbs/100602-15/54001-thumb_cup-o-gold.jpg"></a>

In your case, after <a href=" and after "><img src=" there is a space, which DOESN`T BELONG THERE.

Because of that , the HTML code isn?t interpreted in a correct way.
Now, the output of the script doesn?t contain those spaces, so there is a problem, for whatever reason, at your end.

What you can do is, when you copy and paste the code, to check if there are spaces at the ends of the lines withing the code and delete them.

Shroomerys pictures do not get spidered on search engines like google, etc.

Its not about not wanting them seen, its aout choosing who can or cannot see it.

But all I really wanted was a bit more on the upload per day limit. There really is no logical reason why not.

Quite some. When we switched to this system nearly 2 years ago, it saved around 25% of the total bandwith if I remember correctly.

Yes I think that 25% figure is about right. HTML pages are small to begin with and we send them with gzip compression which reduces them by an additional 75%. Most of the images used on the site have been optimized for filesize, and many are automatically cached by your browser. Images on the BB use a very large amount of bandwidth compared with other parts of the page. I know it may sometimes seem that things like image thumbnails are arbitrarily implemented by the admins to make your life harder, but there are usually good reasons behind them. Please continue using thumbnails on the BB as much as possible - next to patronizing our sponsors this is actually one of the biggest ways you can help us out with our expenses.

Thanks,

-Y

Last I remember, bandwidth is capped on a flat non burstable setup. You guys never even hardly hit your peak during peak hours.

I really think this should be re-looked into and logically thought out. There is a nice sexy raid array sitting there unused still, and a cap on bandwidth which rules out that has a valid opposing reason... what else?

I'm not sure if the max size of an image, vs the max total uploaded is seperate, but I am only asking about the total daily upload, not any sort of max size. I hav eno problems with making people not upload 1 meg images files, but 400k a DAY is a bit obscene.

Shroomerys pictures do not get spidered on search engines like google, etc.



If you do a google image search for "psilocybe azurescens", the first two results are from the shroomery.
