Seems like you did the top things to do there.


For sure. Unfortunately the forum developers insist this feature can't be implemented. :(

Did they say why? Can't implies its beyond their coding skills :)

They say they can't decide how much to compress the picture to or set its resolution! Whole bunch of people gave them suggestions on all of this and they still stuck to their guns they could not make that decision on behalf of the user.

That didn't stop them from imposing a limit.

I can decide for them, it’s a right pain in the arse. They have already set a limit so why can’t all files that are too big get resized so they just respect the limit already in place, the rest getting published as is?


Bunch of knobs.

That is stupid. Why not make it configurable and let the forum admin decide?

*read "grits" and thought maybe it was some unsavory Louisiana Culture/Ethnicity I hadn't heard of.

Which could considered be odd, having been born in Atlanta, and living in Alabama from age 5 to 15.

I guess I've almost eliminated my roots.
