Welcome to the new RFF Servers!!

[barnwulf]

Absolutely wonderful to be back here. Thank you for all the work to get this going again. I still am having some trouble uploading some images. Any ideas anyone? Jim

EDIT: OK, everything working now. First few didn't upload for some reason. Jim

The cookie / session time out should be resolved along with the number of users on line.

I believe it is, thanks!

In case you forgot, or joined RFF while those random gallery pictures weren't showing: This being a photography forum, and a darn good one at that, some gallery submissions may be inappropriate for a work or all-ages environment. There's a checkbox for "mature" content users are supposed to mark as they upload such pictures, but in practice that doesn't happen and as a result, the random gallery can throw something unexpected on your screen, without you actively entering the galleries or a photo thread.

This is not at all an issue for me personally, but occasionally other members have complained.

Wonderful news. RFF for me is a never ending well of information to keep on learning stuff from other people.

Thanks a lot for your effort, Stephen. Excellent news indeed. I think I should order a lens from you 😀

I was locked into the Cameraquest/RFF page and did not know RFF was back up till I checked the group on Flickr. Good to be able to read again.

storage space for attachments???

storage space for attachments???

hello

i wanted to attach a photo (right size and kb) to a post this afternoon. the attachment was not accepted, and i was redirected to my attachment listing, where i was 'using' 4.9mb of space for 60ish attachments.

whether or not this is related to new servers (and space), i would like to know if we should a) keep the attachment mb under a certain limit? and b) should we, as well-behaved forum members, review and clean out our attachments from time to time??

thanks

I experienced the same problem, when I wanted to upload a 50k image. The message I got was that my quota on uploads has been exceeded. After I've deleted basically everything I've ever uploaded (which wasn't much, really), the message still persists :bang:

Is this a bug or a feature?

Same problem here re attachments. Tried to post a reply to a query regarding 1938 leicas yesterday and after deleting all previous attachments a message still tells me that I exceeded my quota by the size of the attachment. Quota now appears to be NIL and the few attachments I did have are gone.

Tried again with the 156k file with no success. Still "156k over quota" with no attachments stored! Time to give up?

I'm still getting this,

I don't get why some people are having no problems with attachments,
and others are.

Yes, getting the same message when trying to post an image. Now I have deleted all previous and can not post a simple 65kb image.

RFF does not work well with Internet Explorer 9 for some reason.

Are any of you having problems with uploading attachments using that browser?

I suggest Firefox or Chrome instead.
