Site Redesign and Working Gallery

[Ian]

I have given the site a bit of a re-design as some of the features weren't working properly and I had to start from scratch. I hope you all like it, please let me know any comments in the new feedback forum :claphands:

The good news is that the gallery works now! The old images aren't back on there yet, but I will try and add them back if possible :goldfish:

 

[Ian]

The old gallery is up and running now :goldfish:

 

[BamBam]

looks good to me, just wonder if all members have left? lol

 

[Ian]

Yep it does seem a bit quiet! Hopefully we can change that :banana:

 

[chatterbox]

Hope fully we can get some action on here soon ..Why wait for springtime..lol

 

[DrCase]

admin have been trying hard to post pictures but cant seem to get them in dont want to wait for spring

 

[Ian]

What seems to be the problem DrCase, I'll take a look at it and try to help you upload ooh:

Are you using this page to upload the files?

https://www.gardenpondforum.com/photoplog/upload.php

Just browse to the photo on your computer, pick a category then add a short title and optional description and it should post the image to the gallery

 

[DrCase]

Dear Admin sent pictures your way . On this page Hope you can help. Thanks DrCase

Admin
Does this suggested posting place post them into the Gallery, or where his messages are? Also, does the Gallery accept JPG?

 

[DrCase]

Pictures would help bring in new members.

 

[Ian]

The gallery accepts JPG's - you can also attach images to posts by clicking "Post Reply" or the "go advanced" button on the quick reply box.

Here is one of DrCase's photos as a test. It is in the PDF format and under 500KB.

 

[Ian]

I see what you mean now - I've added JPG to the forum upload list, so it should now work

 

[DrDave]

Ian
Thank you for this improvement regarding the photo upload formats permitted. This should make a lot of folks happy and bring lots of great photos to the Forum.

PS
I just looked at the file limits for JPG and JPEG and they are set at 146KB. The PDF limit was about 3.1MB. With a limit that low each member would only be able to post 1 small photo before their quota was used up. Disk storage space should not be that scarce, can you please review this?

 

[Ian]

Don't worry that limit is just per file, and you can upload quite a few at a time on the upload form
