Temporary Avatar disabling..

G'day Stefan and all,

Many of my posts contain extensive graphics to explain what I am working on. Since many of the graphics are much too large to upload on your sever I posted the graphics on my website and included a link. This also enabled me to show the illustrations in their correct place in the text rather than having a library of pictures at the end of the post.

I would have thought this system was preferable, since my illustrations otherwise would have taken up a lot of room on your server.

All in all, the old system worked well. I for one am disappointed and personally I don't think the new system enhances the site.

Just my two cents worth.

Greetings from Australia

I agree Hans,
that that is a bit annoying to you and others.

The problem is, that the IMG tag has some security problems.
Some bad users could use it to load virusses in the background.

Maybe you can in the meantime build a page at your own server
and just post a link to it.

When I am redoing the overunity.com server in January there will be more features
again.

Regards, Stefan.

Hi Stefan,

Greg who is User: gmeast has been posting his images as links in the WATER AS FUEL  topic. He is the top Plasma Spark developer and implementer at this time and has shared much in form of images.

This is a hard blow to take without notice Stefan

Could you please at least give him the ability to edit his posts so if he is up to it he may start to attach the pictures and images that are no longer there.

I have no idea if he will do all this work as he is a member at the Energetic Forum and was posting here to help spread this information to the people of this forum.

Please turn the IMG tag back on.. it is the advertisements that slow down pages.. not the external images.  I have blocked the advertisements and the pages load very fast.. even the ones with external images.

We members will loose a lot of great information if you don't turn it back on.

Besides I thought you were going to have a no ads membership to solve the slow pages problem.. it is the advertisements!

Thanks,
Jason

You have had this forum for years with the IMG tag on.. one more month until the new site.. I think it will survive one more month of being on!

I believe the notify function has also been disabled.

Hmm, all these troubles...has Stefan been replaced by a reptilian shape shifter ?
