IMPORTANT - About member photos and linking to them


Recommended Posts

We'd just like to bring up a few points about uploading and linking to member photos on the Forums. While we actively encourage you to upload photos and utilise your member pages, we have been having a few problems with some users uploading extremely large images. We are looking into ways around the following issues (and hope to bring you news about that soon) but for now.....

 

UPLOADING PHOTOS:

If you are uploading photos to your Member pages on Snow Japan, keep try to keep the size (weight) of the photos as small in size as possible. We would appreciate it if all photos are kept to below 50KB as a general rule. If you do not know how to get your photos down to a smaller size, please feel free to send them to us at editor@snowjapan.com and we will reduce their size and then send them back to you by email.

 

LINKING TO MEMBER PAGE PHOTOS:

As you probably know, it is possible to have photos and images appear within a thread on this Forum. However, for the time being, please refrain from bringing in photos that are on Snow Japan member pages into the forum...... Instead, you can paste the URL of the members page into the post - then people who want to see the photo can go to that member page to see it.

 

Thanks for your cooperation on these matters.

UPDATE

OK we have been doing some development on this issue:

 

1: UPLOADING PHOTOS

When you upload photos now to your member page, if they are too large (over 50KB), you will get a message telling you that one or more of your images are over the size limit. If you get that message, please try to make the images smaller, under 50KB, and try again. For the time being if you are unable to do that yourself we will do it for you if you send your images to us at insider@snowjapan.com

 

2: LINKING TO MEMBER PAGE PHOTOS

Go ahead and link away! Feel free to link to images that are on your or any other member pages on this Forum. (You can find the URL of any particular image by right clicking on the image and viewing 'Properties')

 

----------------------

 

We look forward to seeing more of your photos and images on your member pages.

 

Thanks
