1922-p Spiked V6?

Post by Geseas » Sun Aug 16, 2020 3:11 pm

I would like to add info/photos to my post without going to the top of the Discussion Forum.
Is this possible after the limit is reached?
I know that the photo limit policy per post is in place for good reason.
Space on server is expensive.

Replies always cause a topic to pop to the top of a forum. Editing an existing post, which must be your own if you're not an admin, does not.

Thanks John

i have just given it a little more thought....What I am asking is the opportunity to add more photos after I have limited out...I guess you could include a 'Link" with added photos/information.
Maybe 'change up' the photos you have on view. They would already be on your server taking up space. Just link to them...
Maybe, Google Drive Share type thing...

People seem afraid of the Cloud Sharing Stuff, I think. Maybe rightfully so. You would not be able to regulate stuff like that link...Thee flagrant Sales plug. It's a difficult job you do here.
Appreciate your help. Makes me think about a lot more than just coins..

You can include as many externally linked photos in a post as you like using

Code: Select all

[img]external-image-URL.jpg[/img]
The limit of 5 attachments per post were to discourage people from the sawed-off shotgun approach to having someone attribute their coins, posting dozens of pictures without thought given for what is being posted. It also keeps space requirements from growing to quickly.

Thanks, John, the Google Docs seems to work. I don't think it adds much to the server load but adds photos to a post. I will test/experiment/edit.
