Re: Photo of hooks

[Guest guest]

I'd like to remind everyone here about removing the full size pictures when they

upload

images on this group's photos section. Yahoo! creates a regular size picture,

but leaves

the original picture in the folder as well.

The result of this is that, just two days ago, there were over 5 MB of pictures

I had to

delete, one by one, in several user's accounts. I won't name names, but one

person had

pictures near 1 MB each, for example. The usual size of pictures is around 50K

(and then

many are much smaller).

The reason for this cleanup is that we have a pre-determined space for pictures,

i.e. 30MB.

We're now at 15MB, and to make room for as many people as possible, we need to

minimize the space used.

Yann, I've " highjacked " your thread, but it's only to remind everyone here, and

I'm sorry for

that. You can keep the full size version of your surgical hooks picture because

it's

something many of us were (or are) curious about. But if you can, remove it in

two weeks,

leaving only the regular size. I'd appreciate it as it'll save me a few mouse

clicks

Thank you all for your co-operation,

No problem Ray - I had no idea of the space limitations. The default

size for that pic was good enough, so the high-res is out.
