Hello members, classic-castle administration has decided to increase the maximum image size you are allowed to put in your posts. With the recent changes at Flickr, a very popular place for image hosting, of their default size of 'medium' images being 500 pixels wide you may now use that setting. For you Flickr users, they even now have a handy bbcode that you can just cut&past into your posts; it can be found in the drop down menu "Share" right above your picture. Images 500Wx400H may now be used. One image of this size per post so please choose carefully. Four images per post should be enough so make sure if you have a lot of pictures to show off, make sure you link back to the gallery. The old rule still applies to posts with multiple images.
To simplify:
1. Your main image may be 500 pixels wide x 400 pixels high or smaller.
2. Additional images must be thumbnail images, as before.
3. Your post may contain only four images total.
The old rule can be found in the TOS

Be considerate of transfer speeds. HTML is currently disabled, but if it is enabled at a later date, the use of embedded objects, java and javascript are not welcome. Also, do not use overly large signature images or post overly large images in your post. An ideal signature image is 100 pixels high or less; images in a post should be 400 pixels high or less. Please do NOT include the image in your reply. These provisions will help keep Classic-Castle.com running quickly and efficiently.
Thanks and enjoy.
