Pics and videos...why such a PITA?
« on: January 01, 2018, 10:26:09 PM »
 Just wondering why it is such a pain in the ass to upload pictures and videos to this forum. Why do I have to up load videos to YouTube first and then load them onto this forum?  Why do I have to load one picture at a time?  Am I missing something? Is there an easier way to do this?  Is there anyway I can upload pictures by the batch instead of individually? Over the past couple years it has really discouraged me from posting on this board.

for the vids, I know we just do not have the data space available to keep all the vids, so youtube and a link are the only ways.  As for the pics, I know, it sucks that only 1 at a time can be done to a max of 10 per post.  I'm sure there are other versions of SMF that could be purchased, but I know Hoss wants to keep this site free for all and an upgrade can be a little pricey with no income generated from the site.

Sorry of the "brick wall" answers, I know it sucks, we are doing the best we can behind the scenes!

Hey thanks for the response Bryan.  That all makes sense.  Happy New year!

Same to you!  Like I said, I wish we could upgrade, but I don't want everyone to either have to look at banners, see pop-ups, or have to have a paid subscription.  I personally really do enjoy the pics and vids that people post up!
