Re: THE STAGE48 post dump! From Imageshack: "You have 7251 photos stored. Since you're over the 500 photo limit you'll need to upgrade to a Premium account or you'll only be able to keep 500 of your recent photos. Older photos will expire on the 1st of March." Oh crap. Time to find yet another new image hosting site and now all the images here are going to be dead again. Sigh.
Re: THE STAGE48 post dump! Oh shoot .. how much is the premium account? Maybe everyone can chip in? Just create a donation thread .. say how much money is needed and add your PayPal account. Everyone put in like $1, 5, 10 ... then I think we should hit the amount in no time.
Re: THE STAGE48 post dump! Damnit, I also got one. Tricky bastards. 'Its like free entry but pay up when you want to exit'. I'll just delete some and create a new one. I won't have it their way. [devil] Edit: Now I have this. I'm still worried about this.
Re: THE STAGE48 post dump! ^ I guess you may upload up to two photos without endangering existing. 500 are safe, you see.
Re: THE STAGE48 post dump! ↑ I'll leave it at that. I'll be utilizing my Photobucket from now on. Hmm.. since Photobucket, Yfrog and Imageshack seems to be just one company with three names, I'm guessing the limit is the same.
Re: THE STAGE48 post dump! Is there a talk about image hosting services, as we use them everyday? I'd like to know, if there are some really good.
Re: THE STAGE48 post dump! In the long run none of these services seem absolutely safe, to be honest. Unfortunately, most pictures in the gallery link you to a third-party site. What would be best is linking to some forum-owned server space, one without that whole net 2.0 stuff (you know, Facebook like, tweet, +1 option and such). I wonder if the forum's internal attachment option could be improved upon.
Re: THE STAGE48 post dump! Come on guys .. let's all get together and pay for Afro_stud to get a premium account. Seriously .. it's not that much money if we all just chip in a little.
Re: THE STAGE48 post dump! You sure you want to invest money into Imageshack? [sweat] If we were to donate for something, why not get some space at DreamHost for example? After all, it's not just Afro_stud's account. The pictures in the gallery threads are from services all over the place, too. Actually I've been talking to the staff and quite a few members about getting their help to completely renew the galleries from scratch, but eventually the decision's up to the staff.
Re: THE STAGE48 post dump! they don't even bother about US or even the United Nation...i don't think they bother about anything actually...
Re: THE STAGE48 post dump! Hmm .. I'm not sure what's wrong with it? At least there's no risk of it getting taken down like the file sharing sites (Megaupload, Filesonic, etc), right?
Re: THE STAGE48 post dump! I don't think Photobucket has a limit on photos. Never even used the forum attachment thing, last time I tried putting a pic or something it gave me some error about the image size, I was probably doing it wrong though.
Re: THE STAGE48 post dump! There's a image size limit on S48 (575 width). So if you wanna post pictures from Photobucket, you can't copy the direct link. You gotta grab the IMG thumbnail link. Unless your picture is smaller than 575 in width.
Re: THE STAGE48 post dump! Right, but do we know it's going to work for years? To pay for just one account won't really solve the problem with our gallery. [worried]
Re: THE STAGE48 post dump! Oh yeah, i'm ok with the linking from PB thing, it was before I had PB I had no idea what I was doing LOL
Re: THE STAGE48 post dump! Weird I've never experience that attachment got size limit just on photo hosting sites.
Re: THE STAGE48 post dump! Damn it .. I am having a conversation with the same people on two places (here + Twitter) .. lol I wrote on Twitter: other members don't upload as much .. so they don't have the risk of crossing the limit.
