I've been wondering if my method of downsampling for the forum has been a bit too brutal? Will have a few tests. But I am a bit anti storing my photos on the net willynilly. If the penalty for more security is poorer quality postings on this forum, so be it. But it would be nice to show images closer to their actual IQ.

I would estimate that 99% of my pics on here are hosted via Flickr , Eric it's a time tested safe hosting platform . O.k these days if your in to mega storage on there you have to pay , but a free account is up to 1000 images and it's one of the best display platforms I have found especially if your up loading high res images. Plus a forum will always display at a restricted size due to its own limitations even from Flickr .. but you then only have to click on the pic to take you to the full size image on there , which if you want will include your ex if data

I have a feeling all my images on Flicker are already cropped to 1024 max side, because, at the time iirc, you had to pay on Flicker if you had more than a certain level of data, (Gb) stored, so I opted to post smaller images. Also I tried to post smaller images at a time when 1024 was quite large for a screen. The other bonus with storing the images off the forum is you can post more than one image per post which I thought from day one of this forum software was a poor choice, I vaguely remember Steve was going to fix that, it never happened after he took huff about something, I never did know what. With Lightroom you can simply drag an image to a folder and hit 'publish' and that will place the image directly in your account. Posting it FROM Flicker into a forum is a bit more complex, involving going through about four layers of pages to get to the posting code, but it's not that hard once you get the hang of it. I am going to have to prune some of my images because I am closing in on the 1,000 limit, I can't justify paying to host. I could get a website hosted for what Flicker are asking for 1,000 images. Methinks they are being greedy, there should have been a stepped rate for smaller users, OK, start at 1,000 but than another step at say 5,000 images for a bit more £. I think they are asking way too much.

I keep thinking it is time for us to do another migration to a better software but the biggest issue is finding a forum software that gives integrated forum and gallery as the customisations required are not great. The last move was a lot of work for both Steve, and myself. Like Robert I dont know why Steve suddenly decided not to help and more. I guess after selling his Goldwing forum he found better things to do.

I decided for the moment to go PRO on my Flickr account , based on a hopefull return to it becoming a community again , and although I looked I couldn't find a cheaper alternative . Also over the years I have accumulated over 7000 images on there that have had in excess of 7 million views , , so I guess somewhere along the line I'm doing something right
