Don...I'm not sure, but I think Brent may be concerned with server space. Just my thoughts.

Yeah it can chew up some serious bandwidth.

I for one really enjoy seeing them, it's what I cut my teeth on and brings back tons of memories.

If you could resize the photos you might be able to strike a reasonable cord with the Admins.

Yeah Pat, that was something I know very little about, so it could be part of that "big picture" I mentioned. I have been kind of "generously" posting pictures of various things ("generously" is my way of saying I am a HOG )

You could be right though.


Don

Now please note I'm all for the pictures being posted and hope that they continue

Here's where the rub may be Don.
The picture of the Funny Car contains around 241665 bytes.

My post (text) above yours contains around 12031 bytes.

So in essence, that one photo takes up the same bandwidth as 20 of the text posts.

This is were the concern may develope.

This site is very user friendly when it comes to posting pics, I've been to many that will only allow linking to pics on a offsite server.

I post this only as reference and hope no one takes this the wrong way.

Well, noboby ever 'spained bytes to me before.


Can't we just add another Hamster on the treadmill???


Don

Yeah they could, for about the cost of healthy crate engine.
