I would think that it means 10 per day across threads. Be interested to know how much server space and bandwith accyweb has per month or whatever

Say every photo was 512kb each you added 10 a day on one thread and 10 a day on another that is 10MB of data. Now say 5 more people did that in one day. That is 50MB of data.

Now times that by 7 for us adding them everyday of the week times that by 4 for the month. Thats over 1GB in photos alone. Think of quite a few people clicking each photo to take a look.... or think of 10 people decided to look at all our photos for a month(doubtful but..), in one day, in this example 10GB of bandwith will be downloaded from accyweb server.

We have been adding them a lot and not thinking about all this because a few photos isn't much in filesize. Add them all up....accyweb must have quite a lot of server space and a lot of bandwith otherwise we would not be able to access the forum due to running out of the bandwith for the month...

Note: If my maths don't add up; you will have to forgive me. Ive always been bad at maths.(though I accounted for the fact that 1mb is 1024KB and not 1000KB)

I just booted up ubuntu. Loaded accyweb. Come to this thread and viewed around 10 pics

around 500KB of that is used loading the main page and then loading this thread the rest is me clicking your pics and each one of those blue spikes is when I clicked on a picture

Whether you display it in a browser or download the file to keep you are still downloading the picture. When ever you read a webpage you are downloading.

The accyweb server will have a bandwidth limit and a serverspace limit.

You assume above that each pic is 512kb - the ones I posted yesterday were all less than 100kb each which I think is adequate. Easy enough to get down to if you resize.

For xaccy http://www.accringtonweb.com/forum/n...te=1&p=1005979 this link will take you to the message box that you type the message in on the panoramic thread.

you will notice this area is grey, don't go outside this area, follow the top line across, it starts with a double A. then says Verdana. then 2. then A. then a smiley icon. then the paperclip, click on this. It will bring a box up that say manage attachments click on the top browse option, it then brings up a window that is looking for the photo, best place to put it is on the desktop, choose desktop then click on the picture and choose the open button, it then puts the picture ready for uploading. Click on the upload option and wait while it uploads, when done click the submit reply button, and the picture is then posted along with your comments.

It sounds complicated but having done it once, a second time will be a breeze.

When I get to browse in your instructions above, click on that and takes me to my pictures file, double click on the picture I want and it goes straight into the first slot available in the manage attachments box. Repeat for each picture.

Is that not what I was explaining, my instructions are not very clear if you dont understand, I was explaining for xaccy who had not uploaded a picture before, and rather than a double click it was one click on the photo and then the open option , I suppose the end result is the same, you double click on the picture, my way is one click on the picture then one click on the open option. The total number of clicks remains the same.

Originally Posted by susie123 (Post 1006038)

But you mentioned desktop, don't understand how that fits in. Apart from that yes it's the same, sometimes a one click on the picture and then open is what I do too instead of the double click.

I tend to put singular photos on my desktop they are easier to find, its just my way,then when used, put away in a folder on my external hard drive, if they are in a folder you have to find the folder then open the folder then choose the picture.

I hope it sounds easy once tried, I was just trying to get xaccy to understand how to upload a panoramic shot he has taken.

If he is reading this, then perhaps if he posts here any problems, we can go step by step, we really want to see those snaps

I moved to Cardiff from Accrinton in 1972 having just got into digital panoramic pics thought I would send a few for you to view.

1.The National Museum of Wales on the right City Hall in the centre and the Crown Courts on the left.
2.Roath Park lake this is in the city centre.
3.Cardiff Bay which is the old Cardiff dock area re-vamped.
4.What is left of Accrington Stanleys ground at Peel Park which I think is now used by Peel Park school this was taken on my last vist in November 2011.


P.S Many thanks to Dave/Mac for the help he gave me in how to upload my pics to the site.

Well it can be confusing, as localy its Birdy Brow, or sometimes Kemple End, but its Sunday name is Longridge fell. If that doesnt get you close, then it is close to what was Chaigley Manor Childrens Home.

Interesting, never heard of that circle. Just looked at the info leaflet about it. We lived near Stonehenge for many years so I got a bit sick of prehistory but perhaps I should start investigating what's about in this area.

It's sort of between Whitewell and Garstang - so coming from Accy it's before Garstang SD 577460 - very nice in summer.:D
