Post any pictures of your time at CH, or pictures of people/places at CH now - what's changed over the past years? What's good/what's bad?

It's technically possible - but the storage space which it then takes up can grow very quickly, costs then go up for hosting
etc etc.

So possible - but no really cost effective.

"....OK, I've followed this to the letter, but if I try to post anything it seems to appear minus the right hand third or so of the image."
That's curious because I have the same problem, but in reverse, so that when I download an incoming e-mail with attachemnts to Windows Live Mail I always lose the right-hand half of the pic. I have learnt to overcome this by copying pics straight from BT Yahoo to the Pictures folder, but that should not really be necessary. I have asked BT Help (so-called!!!) several times about this, but they don't seem particularly interested and certainly haven't cured it.

Any thoughts, anyone?

OK, I have followed the instructions as far as the fourth line (copy the link underneath the photo the link should look like Image ) but there is no link underneath my photo to copy!

Is there another way to attach a photo?
