scorpa3 Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 Sorry if this has been covered before, can anyone tell me the best way to host photos so that they can be displayed on TC? All my pictures either too big to upload or end up tiny in physical size. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scorpa3 Posted December 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 (edited) I'm working on it now. Doing something wrong.... where's the picture? Edited January 23, 2007 by scorpa3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 It's always best to host externally. If you upload and attach then it uses space on Trials Central and I then have to back that up. All adds extra to the work. There may be changes next year to limit upload space to Supporters only or to prohibit it altogether because it's so easy to find hosting elsewhere. I'm currently reviewing policy moving forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry Andy, I'm not sure what that means. Do you mean you prefer pictures that don't appear on the forum? The 'click here' ones are better? Or is that the other way around? Just me being computer illiterate again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 If you can host them on Photobucket or Flickr or wherever and link them then it makes my job easier. That's all. You can still upload them and even if I change things then photos uploaded now will still work. Nowt to worry about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atomant Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 When you post a comment you have the option to upload images. Well when you do this, these images are stored on Andy's server and therefore take up room which he has to back up. If you use photobucket then the image is stored on their server and you just add a link to it in your post, therefore there is no extra work to do backing it up for Andy and life is simple.

scorpa3 Posted December 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 Thanks Andy, I think I know what I'm trying to do now. Here's more from earlier today. http:// Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atomant Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 Just use the img tags only putting the URL link between them. You dont need to put the URL tags as well Pete so it should look like [ img ]http://www.myimage.com/bike.jpg[ /img ] ( but I have modified this example with spaces to fool the forum software ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scorpa3 Posted December 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 Good shot Barry, did you notice that we both had an almost identical picture of Betarev3 taken in the far corner of the quarry? It's a shame the one of you crossed up in the air didn't have your head on.... that was a good jump! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barrybaines Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 haha yeah I though that with the same shot! later in the day the boy`s got the camcorder out and had me doing some big airs off that little transition so i`ll see how they come out if they send them too me? and try and find a way of hosting video?
