 I have seen a lot of post that had pics that now say "[attachment deleted by admin for space issues]"  so its definitely a space issue on the forum storage end not something us users are doing wrong. And some of those pics could have helped others with installation and ideas so its not good, the site needs to be fixed and they shouldn't be deleting our pics as maybe its a way of selecting who gets the picture advertising and delete the competition.......that's a conspiracy theory  but if the owner would give an explanation we would probably understand. Hint hint

Hey guys, sorry for the difficulties with the pictures. As far as I know I'm the only moderator and I'm only really here because I know the owner and he asked me to help.
The picture issue has to do with the amount of storage that the forum has. I don't know the details but for some reason there is only about 500mb of storage space allowed.
If you host your images on a site like photobucket and then link them in you shouldn't have this problem.
I'll see what I can do about increasing the amount of server storage but that's not something I have direct access to (or knowledge about).
Thanks.

Thanks for the info usergray, I figured thats what the problem was as all my photos from photobucket are still here but most all the site hosted pics have been deleted.
