Just a bit of a reminder to all please.

When uploading photos to the forum can you limit it to 6 photos per post, you can do as many postings as you wish but just 6 at any one time. There may be an issue for some who have a slower internet connection that it then takes too long for the page to load if there are more than 6 per post. The system is set up for 10 posts per page and when there are loads of photos in one post then it can take an age for the page to load

thanks

Please accept my apologies on the recent outage. To put it simply. Some of FTF's DNA deep within the system from year's gone by inadvertently corrupted a fairly standard upgrade so needed a specialist to clean up the old mess and get us back. Should be fine now.

Just a footnote that we will be carrying out some other work to the forum in the coming weeks but should not result in downtime. I will try and warn in advance if it does!

Thankfully not this time! Some will notice we have also re-introduced signatures within the forum. If you had an existing one, you might need to reupload the image.

There was a minor server glitch I think Smithy which might explain that brief outage you saw. The Image top left as Gav says is a link to home but it's main purpose will be the forum logo. A new one at that as we make some changes to FTF for 2021. It's being tweaked to better display than current position though!

The migration will see increased reliability and better compatibility with new features being introduced in the coming weeks. Data up to 6pm will be carried over in the move.

I have just posted some photos on my collection topic from my phone, the quality of original photo was a lot better than what I can see on the forum, do I need to change a setting somewhere?

Could you post a link to the topic please Martin. There should be no change to images.
