Hi there folks,

My name is Bill, and I live in the UK.
I am a member of this site, and wonder what you think as you browse around as I did before I joined.
Are there aspects which you don't like?
Are there aspects which you do like?
Would you like to feel free to ask a question or two?

A quick question or statement would be informative for us as we [or at least I] await new potential members.
I think you only need to provide your e-mail address and you are then free to ask your questions if you have any.
I am sure many other members will respond if I am not on-line, and be assured that the 'Family' here would love to have your company to expand our horizons.
I think everyone with honourable intentions is welcome and has something to offer and take from this site, so give it a whirl!!!

Best regards, Bill.

hey  Bill  ;D
i m wondering how come we can't upload our pics here and insert into our profile directly  :

Thx,
Epo

Hi Epo,

This topic has arisen before.
I think that if you can upload your pics to an http website [as provided by most ISP's] you can post a reference to that site address. I guess you know this already!

I believe Shawn is looking at providing a way to upload pics directly to Mind-Brain, but don't know how much success he has had to date.

I will send him an IM to ask if he thinks there is a viable solution available to him. The site seems to be growing so fast, and yet he has limited time to effect new capabilities. Please bear with it for now.

I'll post another reply ASAP, or more probably, I imagine Shawn will want to post for himself.

Best regards, Bill.

Thanks, Bill, for bringing this to my attention, and also for starting this thread.  It's important to know what other members and visitors think of this forum (and of this site), at the very least so that efforts can be made to improve it.  

hi Epo, and welcome to our forum.   The reason you can't upload pics to the server is because I haven't implemented that feature into the forum yet.  There are two things to consider here:  

1)  One of my concerns is that unethical people will begin uploading very large files to mind-brain.com's server and will fill up the server space that's allocated to it, thereby disabling posting functions at the forum (since posts take up server space).   However, if I can set upload size limitations, then that would solve the problem.   Unfortunately, I don't know how to do that at the moment,

2)  I'd have to investigate how best to incorporate this uploading feature into the forum (which I also don't know precisely how to do at the moment).  

However, give me a little time.  I'm currently working on other things, but will see about implementing this uploading feature.

take care,
Shawn
