So I have to put it up on a web page first - I thought you could somehow import them.
I'll have to try and remember my very old web page address and put it up.
Thanks for the help - it might be while now before I sort my page out.!
Cheers

Mr.Cookie

Or me

But question for Webbie or Alec. How's about a bit of space on your server for these pics? Then people could email their pics in & receive a url to make their posting.

Mr.Cookie

Me at least that too w/out the "spare" 15gb on the company web-server in my office

I don't have a prob doing it, just wondering if there might be a "central resource" as we might not always be about...

Mr.Cookie

Indeed puff just didnt know if storing pics would destroy bandwidth anymore (im only a chef and not very knowlegable about theese things).

I agree that central space is a good idea but there are some possible problems. These are just my opinions and not Simons.
1) Cost, not a huge issue in terms of £'s per pic but with extra bandwidth, with both picture and text coming from the Scoobynet server.

2) Admin, who would do this? It would invlove a resonable amount of work, uploading / deleting / updating etc.

I'll see if we can get something done. Any ideas gratefully received.

Hi Alec

I know 10meg is not an awful lot of space but as i am not using it and have a reasonable amount of spare time thought it could be put to good use. If ive stepped on anybodies toes i appologies now.

Cheers
Simon

Alec

Simon
You've not stepped on anyones toes. Your doing us a favour and if you don't mind hosting the pictures then feel free to go ahead.

I won't effect scoobynet bandwidth (anymore than a normal post) if the pictures are hosted else where. Simon if you want a full explanation of this techie stuff mail me off line.

Alec
