Everyone is keen but will there be a chance of it happening?

The hosts can place a link to Flickr then we can all use that

to save space.

Thing is we need the 'folders" to be created.

Info on uploading pics can be placed in the main forum.

The only person that can make this happen is Hendie. So if you are all so keen, why not PM him with your suggestions?

I think that while we wait for the Hosts to setup the structures we shouldn't wait but start with the PhotOZ,

My suggestion is to post in "Places of Interest" and make sure your thread topic starts with [PhotOZ] - in this way we can start doing what we want and getting the ball rolling as it were. So get your photOZ uploaded to Photobucket et al en start posting.....

I haven't read all the posts - just saw this one coming up due to the latest reply. Have you guys approached Hendie directly about this? He does not read all the posts so maybe he is not even aware of this request. PM him or send him an email on hendie at saaustralia dot org

<_< Riekie, I posted this Q in April and somehow its managed to come to the top again - thought it was lost in SAAustralia cyberspace.

Lets see what Hendie says about a new dedicated photo thread, linked to somewhere else or something, i have no idea how it works <_<

Ok, let me give you my perspective on this issue. Mainly it is about the cost of diskspace. At the moment we have 700Mb total, for topics, posts, and uploaded pictures. Of the total diskspace, we are already using over 400Mb for uploads (documents, pictures, etc - attachments to posts). Yes we can add a photo gallery, but that would most certainly attract more posted pictures, and LOTS more disk usage. At the moment the cost of keeping the forum up and running is about US$20 per month, covered by our ads. We would have to campaign more aggressively for ads to afford a higher hosting package, and since we're running this forum with a volunteer host team, I don't want to tax them even more with the added burden of being responsible for more funding.

So in short, I would suggest that we use services like Flickr or PhotoBucket, or even FaceBook which now allows higher resolution pictures to be posted.

Hendie is the man who makes this whole website possible - without him, it would not even exist... :holy:
