Howdy all.
Recently I've gotten a couple of messages from people about the number of pics in a post. It's been awhile since I've been on dial-up, but from what I remember, it's a real pain to go through threads with TONS of pics (and actually right now my DSL is kind of flakey, so it *is* a pain).
Anyway, starting now, I'm going to ask that you include no more than 3 pics per post (this number might change. We'll see). This also goes for quoting posts as well.
Does this include the pic thread?
Yes.
Doesn't the "Pic Thread" imply that it's going to be pic-heavy?
Well, yes. But, it's not a contest to see how many pics we can get in a post. Our friends with dial-up and bad connections also enjoy Alan too.
I have this great pic. But, OMG! It's way big!
Super! BUT you either need to resize it or post a link. Use good judgement on this one. And if you're going to post something in the Wallpaper thread, please post a small-ish preview (I mean, not too small, but you get the idea. I hope).
I have 6 pics I'd like to post. Can I have two posts right in a row?
That's double posting, so that would be a negatory on that one (see forum rules). Wait until someone else posts.
I just posted 4 pics in one post today. Is this because of me?
Nah. This has been brewing for awhile now and I'm just really lazy. We're cool.
I have a picture in my signature. Does that count as one of my three?
Nope.
I'd like to get some feedback on this one, so I'm creating a feedback thread in the Help Desk section.
(and I hope I didn't sound too snarky. I'm still in teacher mode)
