    Attachments are now allowed!

    You are now allowed to upload attachments, which are relevant to the thread or post. When making a post you will see a Manage Attachments button that will allow you to upload several attachments per post. If there is an attachment file type not supported, let me know and upload a zip file instead.

    Please note, any abuse of this feature will result in an immediate removal of the offending file and a possibly suspension. The admin and PowerBASIC Inc. are not responsible for any of the files hosted on the forums. You download any attachments at your own risk.
    Sincerely,

    Nice to see this feature enabled, thanks.
    Maybe when someone upload a non-trivial example on the source code forum, he can now upload the zipped source too (or other related files).

    Bye!

      Is there a limit to the volume or the quantity?

      Some of the more prolific performers may fill their quotas quickly.

        Each user is allowed to upload a total of 10Mb in attachments. If a user goes over this amount, maybe we can increase it as needed or the old attachments can be deleted.

            Deleting would be pretty bad, in historic perspective. Risking to digg an old post and find the attachment gone, would not be a pleasant experience. I think very very few users will use attachments in a big way, even if we had 1GB each of space in theory.

              Need to turn on something to post an attachment ?

              I was trying to post an attachment, but both the 'Manage attachments' button and the paperclip symbol refused any action.
              I suspect that this may have something to do with browser settings.
              I turned on anything i could think of, but so far without result.
              Can anyone give me a hint about this ?
