[QUOTE="flyn high again, post: 1600334, member: 9555"] Pics and vids worked fine when I joined the site. Then the site outgrew the server and the slowdowns began. That's when Steve pulled the attachments and later the search functions. It's all a question of storage and bandwidth and how to pay for it. If we can afford Cobras and lightnings, I think we can figure out a way to afford the necessary bandwidth. Premium memberships or thoughts along that line seem to be a good idea to me. As long as the price is reasonable and fair, I wouldn't mind paying for the ability to attach pics and vids. C'mon, this is one of the larger, better car sites on the web. We should be 1st class, not 2nd class in the way we do things. I miss the how to procedures and pics that used to be posted regularly. Now with having to hunt up a host, how to pics are harder to post and without the search, they are impossible to locate anyway. It's good of Dan to offer to host, but I think the site's pics and vids should be stored on the site. The way it is now, pics and vids can disappear because little Tommy didn't pay his monthly bill and his site which had a few important pics that were linked to here is gone. IMHO, we should think BIG [provided, of course, the costs are not outrageous]. Hell, we have plenty of computer experts and guys with computer and hosting company connections as members, as well as many professionals with various types of knowledge and expertise. If we can't make it work, who can? [/QUOTE]
