"Integrity" and "integer" both contain a Latin root meaning "whole; complete." The root sense, then, is that people may be said to be acting with integrity when their beliefs, words, and actions have a sense of unity or wholeness.

Hi guys,

I love the new forum but I have came across something which is EXTREMELY irritating, on the photography thread the rules are, post oics only that are 640 x 480 which is fine by me BUT I tried to upload a portrait pic (which is 480 x 640), the forum wont let me upload it as the max height available is 600 pixels, FRUSTRATING!

Mods/site admins, any chance this can be resolved to take 480 x 640 portraits?


Thanks

Yeah, that's been driving me nuts. Many of the pics i take for my mods are scaled down by my watermarking app, and sometimes they're scaled to 603.

Please Ron :( Can't we up the height to 700 or something, just to be safe? And while you're there, push the 800 to something like 810 :P Please dude :(

Not the point - it should allow standard sizes. And if you try and like to some sites - it says it is unable to determine the size :P

Yeah.

Besides, viewing full images is far nicer than viewing thumbnails.

How about this.

We allow people to post images within the forums rules but the first person to break the rule gets banned :twisted:

There is that evil streak again.

What if we posted between 400 and 800. Those are not too big.

Thats fine.

The site is set to 800x600 as the max size

Would you like 800x800 to be the max?

That would allow for 800x600 and 600x800

hmm...

thumbnails ftw... that way the victim gets to pick which images they're going to burn bandwidth on...

while i get that certain folks will be posting worthwhile content, i can assure you there is a large group of posters out there who will soon be flooding multiple threads with over-sized images we've probably seen 50 times already...

bad move, imo, but then i tend to hunt out the downside :lol:

Max size is now 800x800 which will allow for 800x600 and 600x800 images to be displayed.

A surprising amount of modern pseudoscience is coming out of the environmental sector. Perhaps it should not be so surprising given that environmentalism is political rather than scientific.
