Hello guys! Not posted for a while as I ain't been too sure about file sizes. I know my pics are quite big and I don't want to slow down the loading of the thread. Any info of what is acceptable would be appreciated 👍 :cheers: :)

1. You can 'upload a file' direct from PC/USB in .jpeg or .png format any massive size and this GTP thread will automatically upload and resize to the exact 800x450 for you. (no link involved).

2. If you are on Flickr which I think you are, I upload direct there then I use 'share bb code' click the drop down box to Medium (800x450) this will resize for you then click the paperclick link (on your post) and paste the flickr code in and all done.

3. You can use 1. (above) and paste the big size link in the bb code editor by going in to more options on the post you are on if you want sharper detail on the pic but it takes so much longer. (as you have to upload twice -here and host site)

4. Let us know how you plan to do it and I am sure we can help!..👍 but pretty much now you don't have to get involved in any resizing as the sites do it all for you.

p.s don't be scared off all here to help, if you did post large it is easily sorted/edited...same with all new posters just ask if you think it is too large for help as we all went through this a few months ago when it was being discussed by the mods etc :cheers:

Cheers @torque99 for the info! I know the page loading times were a issue with large files, even I found them to be a pain in the butt...and mine probably didn't help the situation. I didn't think it was fair on most of you who post more frequently to have to wait every time occasional posters like myself decided to share.

I've done quite a few pics since I last posted, but I won't upload those and kill the flow, I'll just start again with my latest pics!

Cheers again, info is always appreciated! :cheers:
 
To date I've avoided night shots like the plague due to the horrible jpeg image loss but now we've got png it's about time I took some...









^^ 5 exposure HDR ^^​

I have to say that it seems that since we use the PNG-format the pages load extremely slow with pictures. Or is that just me?

Well, despite the size limitation, the files are still proportionally larger in kilobytes, plus loading from other sites can increase the load.
 
Joining in with the One:1 splurge (probably the first time I've driven it since it arrived.) Still not really sure about it as a car, too fast for me I think, but still fun to fling around.

First though, my Fruity Oaty Bar livery (a reference for those who have seen the film Serenity.)
