Picture attachments issues

[Mighty Mike]

Oooops.....18.15 mb. Most of my pictures were from old NorCal AO Days that have now been deleted. Well, it's down to 3.5mb now and will be lower by next week when I delete all the pictures i posted in the 05 Huntington Beach thread.

I could delete some Kb's, although that might be worthless...

Yowzers....

Right at 20mb and I do host alot of my pictures on my own space, I'll see what i can transfer and clean that up some.

Not really as it all helps. Many users may think they only have a little of space used many might but a whole lot more are well up there and over time it soon adds up, you haven't been a member for that long so perhaps that is why you haven't got much stored but think about it seriously...do you need all the pics you have stored on AO servers? Chances are you have a copy on your pc anyway.

If you must post pics then use some of the links given in this thread to use for hosting.
The links have been given so you won't have to pay any money out, which is always good.

deleted 1.4 of 1.6 mb i was using to host.

i host most of my stuff on my own server...eh

Down to 3mb and 1 page from 20mb and 11 pages.

Do I get a cookie?

It might be a bit stale by the time it got to you if I sent you one

The funny (as in strange) thing about all this I have argued for remote hosting since well forever...yes I did use AO but I actually deleted all my AO hosted stuff a year ago...but it is proving to be a shock that users have had as much file space used on AO...imagine if all users actually read this thread and acted accordingly. It has taken a fault/error to bring this to a head...honest it is just that not some Twilight Zone plot

Deleted 1.8 MB. Surprisingly it only consisted of 7 pictures.

2.9 Mb just bit the dust.

Man that stuff was hard core old too. It was all from before I had my own webspace.

I had no idea they kept things from that long ago.

Toward the end of helping out AO as a whole, anyone who can't use the other free hosting services should feel free to email me their pics. If you send the pic and the URL of the thread it goes into, I will host the pics and post them where they go.

But really, if you can use Image Shak or the like, do that first. If you can't, give me a ring.

OK, I droped 5 mb, about 100 pictures.

[hitech]

Well, I'm down to under 1.5 mb. I'll try to find the attachments I just couldn't delete and transfer them to mypictures.com (thanks for the service).

BTW, I deleted about 1 mb.

Dropped two pages of attachments, somerandomnumberMbs

Down the drain

well, 5.84 Mb down the drain. Now only imagine what kind of space it would make if we started deleting old pointless threads!

Actually, I bet you would be surprised how little space the text part takes up.

Please no - AO is a database of knowledge, of ideas, of thoughts. Well we can generally live without the diagrams if we have to, loosing the vast accumulation of thought, knowledge, communication would be a blow. How would you judge useless information today from what may be useful tomorrow?
