R400 NOT Posted October 11, 2003 Share Posted October 11, 2003 How about "The Owners List" (for those of us without a Homepage ) where you can post information about your 7 and update it as you wish Peter and The Clan ------------------------------------ M.E.

Grubbster Posted October 15, 2003 Share Posted October 15, 2003 Excellent idea - even for those with a homepage, one place to look at everyones details! plus will stop the need for a lot of the duplicate posts asking for build diaries etc! See some photo's of the build here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myles Posted October 15, 2003 Share Posted October 15, 2003 Someone already runs 'the 7 gallery' AFAIK... do a search. Alcester Racing 7's Equipe - 🙆🏻 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurence Wilson Posted October 15, 2003 Share Posted October 15, 2003 The 7 gallery is here. But I think this is a good idea, too 😬. Perhaps a solitary gif image of the owners car and a diary to detail events / blats / upgraditis 🤔 Peardrop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R400 NOT Posted October 15, 2003 Author Share Posted October 15, 2003 Put extra options on the BlatChat Profile so members can add their Se7en information as well as the facility to add a GIF Image.

Steve-B Posted October 16, 2003 Share Posted October 16, 2003 the inclusion of a GIF image woul add to traffic via page size increasing but a line for URL would only add a negligible amount .... barry?

Laurence Wilson Posted October 16, 2003 Share Posted October 16, 2003 The problem with a link is it leaves an open invitation for the less than reliable to show dirty piccys I s'pose I was insinuating a hosted image so that they were all verified. Bandwidth would only really be an issue if images were shown next to the users posts as on some other (IMHO) untidy forums ; I think the idea is they would only viewed when someone accessed a blatter's diary FWIW, even the large gif images I put up for the logo proposal were less than 20Kb.

scooby dooby doo Posted October 20, 2003 Share Posted October 20, 2003 a bit of messing about in the sheds meant that a single thread totalling 16Kb was responsible for half the traffic that day at several hundred meg. imagine if everyone had a 10kb gif on that thread....

Alias Posted October 24, 2003 Share Posted October 24, 2003 In SELOC they get round it by posting the URL. Your browser finds the GIF as opposed to it coming from the Blatchat server. Still a problem with people posting offensive pictures, indeed there was recently a thread on SELOC about this (although some thought it was a troll). One car - 1400 Supersport with 6 gears and clamshell wings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
