I tried to add a picture attachment to a post and got a message that the forum had reached it's attachment limit. The file size is only 500K
"Unable to upload file 2.jpg. Error: This forum has exceeded its attachment space limit. Your file cannot be uploaded."

I think the forum has a set limit of the space allotted for attachments. I typically upload to imgur.com and then use the "insert image" and paste the direct link of the photo I what to post to the forum.
Derek does clear out the memory every once in awhile but then that removes the images posted also.

The problem with using a hosting site for images is that over time, the user's account may be closed and the images are lost from the original posts. I've seen this happen a lot with Photobucket anyway. That's why I prefer to have the images stored on the forum's server--that is, as long as they don't get deleted during a "clean up".

Yeah, first world problem, living in the virtual world. Everything is floating in cyberspace, unless you own the web-server.

Good question. I don't know anything about actually doing this but a quick search I found this info. In the open source private cloud marketplace, there are several options, such as ownCloud, Nextcloud, Seafile, Syncthing and Pydio as well as smaller players such as SparkleShare. civihosting.com/blog/nextcloud-vs-owncloud/

Oh boy, just what I need, another project My web server is self hosted so adding owncloud should be fairly easy. I seem to remember my firewall having an owncloud option, I'll look into that!

I use Google Drive to host a lot of information including photos which I can share in a public album and then just share the link. It costs about $3 a month and works well for that. For example: goo.gl/photos/dZc14d9h7sUtcQy4A

If you have a static ip address (or use dynamic DNS) and have your own servers then SME server is a real easy solution to set up, either on an old unused computer, or as a virtual machine on another server.

Hookup Girls Utilizes Free of charge Issues? An Excellent Horizontal Reward!
Free of charge hookup women meet real girls online is the solution if you're sick and tired of gonna bars and clubs simply to be ignored, or perhaps even worse, laughed at.
I am aware what it's like because I've been there. I used to be single and distressed back in the time -- I necessary a brand new companion -- having said that i continued trying because I had not any other choice. If you're one particular gentleman who would like to hookup with alluring females without going to those spots in which the females are on your own, this report may just change your life.
It can explain why internet dating on-line is the greatest choice if you're a male who seems to be shy to strategy an attractive woman in the club or club.
