Questions before starting my progress report.
« on: August 11, 2021, 09:37:04 AM »
Hope i´m asking on the right place.

I make some progress building what i´m building, and i think it is time i share what i did so maybe others use it or get ideas. Just like i did with a lot of info here.
My questions are,

- For posting images. Are they stored here en viperpits site, or i have to store them on some other website?
- Can i post images that are stored on my googledrive?.

Thanks!

Please don't store images externally, there is nothing more annoying trying to read a build thread and all the links to external images are dead.
Use the built-in image attachment feature instead please, this way we can all enjoy your images forever.

ok. Good to know.

If the images are stored here, much much better and easier for me. :)

Good, you just have to keep the images under 1 MB per post I think.

Just make sure they are in 72 dpi (for web) and then the max KB. the system show, then you you can make them as big x,y size as you want.

Just a hint

For images on the web the dpi setting is irrelevant. Each monitor has a completely different dpi capability. Dpi can be relevant for printing (as a quality level) but not for online viewing. So forget that setting, The only thing important is your size in pixels. Too small and details are not visible, too big and many users won't be able to see the entire picture. I tend to use pictures with the largest side around 1000 pixels as that seems to be usuable for most viewers.
