Simviation Forums

...Due to and Inmaginable uploaded Photos and shot ,Gift that ours servers must be very good to deal with it, I ask Its there a posibility to each one of the members can see And the most important delete un-use own images?

, I remember there was a time,when I could replace and image by gaving the exact name of it,to relief and save space from the server's HDD's and also later was a problem, good idea to change this format

[quote]One more thing, I 'm awaring that, I picked the wrong place this should be post in Suggest..I'm sorry ...

Actually the images don't take that much space - just a few small GB.

The forums use hardly any bandwidth - the main site is sometimes around 300GB / day - the forums maybe 1GB if that.

Like Doug says - every now & then I have a clearout of old images - & it really annoys those with old avatars ...

I mean only the images ,wich I think ocupys more space In hdds, I knew I could remove but this could be as a problem link so I gues should be in both places Doug

My point is I'm concerning about it in the latest month has become a little slower that it used to, I'm not the only one who feels it.  

I haven't noticed anything. In fact exactly the opposite & the forum has been running well for me recently. I suspect the problem is at your end.

Okay Doug whatever you said...


After all you got more time & post maybe its this Service Pack 2 I just format my drive this weekend and is the same

Hi Alex.
Petes in the process of server changes and so on, so hopefully when all is said and done the place should be running much smoother for everyone.
I for one would be happy if this place only had images in the image sections. And the code be turn off in all the other subsections. But that wont happen so hopefully the change overs will help. I know it would also be nice to have an option to turn off sig images in the profile section, some forums offer this so your screen isn't cluttered with them, again maybe for the future.

Actually I've noticed it too, The Forum is slow on certain times. Not to slow but slower than  normal. I think The problem lies withing my connection though and I only notice it more on Simv cuz that is where I spend most of my internet time

Having said that... How's the new server coming along Pete?

If you use the Firefox browser there is a Load Images option in Tools. You can disable this to make webpages load faster. Of course, this affects all images.

PS. I've never been a big fan of these huge sig images that seem so popular now. They're completely unnecessary & if it was up to me they would be banned.

What about if other people who actualy are here(Not me Doug The other forum I belong is FSDD the one where Felix is an Admin)are & belong in other forum and uses this forum site for photo & shop Links? Does Pete Know this?,I won't denie , I did it once,I need it some teaching and I had posted some images in SimV forum desing which I also linked to there, I think was the Boeing 717 ,and It work fine,what about people who register and never post ,BUT uses our forum as a Linker for shot?

Just another Thought Please don't make fun of me,I don't know too much of this thing

As if I would do that. :P

Seriously, I see your point & I'm sure Pete is well aware of it. If it was a serious problem there are ways & means of preventing other sites/forums from linking to images hosted on the server.

I suspect that your problems are due either to your ISP or your connection. It could also be your PC and/or browser settings. Pete always recommended doing a tracert to find any hangups between you & the website server.
