| HEXUS.gallery hi Guys, We have turned this on for all members with 200 posts or more on the forums - easiest way is to go QuickLinks and then 'Pictures and Albums' Please feel free to use it and upload to it - we want to get some real traction on this. We've obviously not defined all of the rules for this - but we should work on these for when we hard launch it. For now - the rules are simple - No Porn or other indecent images - No acts of violence or animal cruelty. These rules will change over time so please feel free to use it and see what you think  Cheers David |

| Re: HEXUS.gallery Wow.... Now that is something I feel most of us in here would use quite a bit ---- Why do Computer Scientists get Halloween and Christmas mixed up? Because Oct. 31 = Dec. 25. |

 | Re: HEXUS.gallery so what do we use it for? images for the forum (like posts and things) or just general stuff... or both? i.e. instead of linking to photobucket or others? |

| Re: HEXUS.gallery I would assume it's a photo gallery ..... not just hosting space for images placed on the forum. In other words, it's for showing off your photos. I could be wrong though. Noli nothis permittere te terere.   |

| Re: HEXUS.gallery Guys You can use it for anything you like within reason - photos you have taken, photos of your systems - or even screenshots. Lets see how it evolves organically cheers David |

| Re: HEXUS.gallery Is there a public album list? Or do we have to go via username -> profile? Sounds like a cool concept though Is it possible to do competitions? ie post pictures into a public album and then we can judge based on that? (since some of the old photo comps were quite popular, maybe we could get it into a recurring feature again) Last edited by Whiternoise; 29-08-2008 at 06:26 PM.. |

the only thing that wont work is that the auto resizer that it claims to do doesnt work. you HAVE to do it manually. a little bigger than 600x600 would be nice too |

| Re: HEXUS.gallery Okay, it works now. Turns out I was trying to upload un optimised images running at around 2Mb....and 600x600 works fine for me too since everything I've got is actually 500 px along the longest edge.... http://forums.hexus.net/members/ibm-albums.html Check it out! |
