no justice in life

All the things you are and aren't allowed to do, and yet this is still allowed !

Of course, because that makes perfect sense :blink:

Aside from that, you all do realise that the limit on image size is based on the file size, not the amount of pixels along each edge, right? Annoying as it is when it reformats the whole page, it really isn't anything that the tech team are going to waste their time over.

Good grief people. The pic just came out a bit larger than I expected. Nobody "allowed" anything either way.

If it grossly offends you do please email admin to ask them to remove it.:blink:

You might get sucked into the anomaly though. Just saying...

well considering the mess they have made of the planned maintenance and associated upgrades perhaps they should be doing what the client wants rather than doing what they want.
but that is the IT ethos.

I've asked the techs if they can block people posting large pics because it reduces the rest of the thread. It will also use a lot of data. It may take a while for them to get round to it...what with all the problems with the recent upgrade.

just expressing a viewpoint as I understand I am still allowed that little luxury, so no need to get so defensive

Other than jokes about 'could you have posted a bigger picture', I don't think anyone has brought up the desire for a pixel limit on in-forum pictures though, they can't address an issue they don't know is there.

I don't think LIW was being defensive...she was saying she doesn't mind if it is removed, It will be removed shortly.

Thank you.

It didn't look that large on the site I grabbed it from, honest guv. I don't think it is a large file actually since it's just a screen grab so it won't suck up too much power, it's just in a large format.

You never know what size a pic will post at until it is posted, unless you preview the post before submitting.

It won't be a large file size, probably just a few megs, it's the pixels that determine the physical size of the image on screen. Bit of a non issue really, unless your internet is really shit, I suppose. Like 1995 dial-up shit.

Well anyway, it seems it will be taken care of soon so we can go back to discussing actual crimes against humanity and stuff. :)

I think it should be left there, just 'cause.
