Hello.

Just wanted to know if there is a cap in size, per member of Mac-Forums, for the total of attachments we upload in threads and if, consequently, I need to tidy up?

Thank you. :girl:

I don't think there is a cap, because I have been uploading things to this site since i got here, using screen shots to explain things, desktop threads, picture threads, etc. and I have not heard anything about a limit.

First you have to have an image hosting place like Photobucket or Flickr.

Second you need to grab the URL of the image you want to post in Mac-Forums, making sure the image does not exceed 800 pixels wide by 600 pixels high (forum rules).

Third, in your reply to a Mac-Forums post, you will need to include an image tag. The image tag can be found at the very top of the reply box (see the attachment below for the identification of the image tag icon). Once you click on the image tag icon, you are prompted to enter the image's URL. You paste it in the box, you click OK and voilà! Your image will appear in your reply once you click on Submit Reply.
