I know it means another thread, however the Obs page was much more functional for those on the road or via iPhone getting updates.
All photos have now been absorbed back into the event obs thread in the correct order.
Would appreciate any feedback, both positive and negative!
Agree with this. Would much prefer to have all the images from an event in one thread, rather than having to flick through over 50 pages of "rumbles here!" and "its pouring!"ShaneEEEE wrote:Hey Sniper,Sniper wrote:Thanks to all who posted their photos in here yesterday!

To be quite honest I would prefer it if this thread remain open and all images be posted into this thread. If I see a thread that is 58 pages long as the current obs thread is, I will generally ignore it.
I think the idea of having a thread dedicated to imagery for an event is a brilliant idea, it saves having to sift through a thousand posts to find images.
Just my 2c worth.
I use Photobucket still, and I confess I should be pasting the thumnail not the full snap, will start doing so again, just got caught up with the general trend of past 12 months.Instability wrote:Maybe I am not technically correct, but can't you switch display images off as a user setting? If you are on the road using a wireless connection (through an iPhone for example), wouldn't this stop the bandwidth problems?
Personally I like to see the photos with the posts as it adds to the story that is unfolding before us. Otherwise it would be like reading a book or a manual with all the illustrations either at the back or in a separate book
Having said that, it would be great if the forum had the ability to display only a default-sized "preview" photo that would automatically link back to the source photo. So, regardless of size of the original photo they would always be the same size in the forum posts. I know that this is probably not technically possible within our forum, but for someone like me who would post thumbnails with links if they didn't find it so technically challanging, it would be a great solution.
Keep up the good work and thank you for providing us with these wonderful forums
