Hi all,

I believe I have found a suitable way to allow attachments without this resulting in unpleasant spam.

There is now a new category called 'Validated Users'. These are people who have made more than three posts (without being banned!).

Users in this group are able to upload attachments to posts.

I've added all users with more than 3 posts and will go through the list from time to time and add new users meeting that requirement.

However, if you're not in that group and want to add an attachment, you can:

[*:gmmfncn7]reply to this message asking to be added
[*:gmmfncn7]PM me or contact me some other way
[*:gmmfncn7]ask a moderator to add the attachment to the post for you.

Regards,

Matt

PS. I'm looking at how I can implement a photo gallery with the proposed forum upgrade.

Has any progress been made with creating a photo gallery? Or would it be possible to add photos as attachments - perhaps with a maximum file size in .jpg or .gif format?

You can add photos as attachments already.

Is there a limit on the file size? Which format is preferable?
