That's five times better than it was before!

OK, I upped it to 10. That should be sufficient. If you have more then you can do them in batches of up to 10. I think other than someone transferring their entire collection in one go, 10 will be more than adequate.Quote:

This tweak meant increasing the permitted max resolution (but not the overall file size) a little. RF, if this causes any problems server wise, let me know and I will restore the previous settings.
I'll have to try that on my 4 year old Android...soon as I figure out how to even attempt it.
It's pretty much the same as doing it on a PC, Gallery>My Photos> Upload Photo.Quote:

This has always been possible, its just that newer phones with better cameras create larger resolution photos which were then ignored in the upload process (no error is show, but the photo doesn't appear in the gallery). I jus increased the allowable resolution to allow this.
EDIT: small gotcha for those that use the GreyFolio Black theme. The font used in the top menu (where the Gallery button is) is larger for this theme. This means that on a phone (or at least an iPhone) the Gallery button gets obscured by the search field and you cant get to the gallery. A simple work round is to temporarily change your theme to VB4 Default whilst you upload your photos. this has a smaller font and you can get to the gallery button. I'll post some screenshots shortly to explain all this a little better.
this shows the problem with the Greyfolio skin:

and this is how it looks on the VB4 Default:

All users should use the Take Five 4.0.8 skin.
That's what the site is supposed to look like. Of course we offer 3 other options because we love our members.
These days, like Roland, I'm a dark skin kind of a guy...Quote:

Ideally the menu should wrap over 2 lines. I don't think I have admin access to the skins though, otherwise I'd take a look at how it's managed.Quote:

I use the second option, mostly because if I see the Take Five 4.0.8 skin, then I know I am not logged in.Quote:

I am reading an old thread with many posts, and won't be able to read it all in one (or even several) sittings. So was wondering if there is a way to bookmark a post as where you stopped in the thread?
Thanks,

Each post has a post number in the upper right that is an actual clickable link. You should be able to save that specific link into your bookmarks.Quote:

For example, here is the link for post #481 in this thread. I just picked one at random.
http://www.thedarktower.org/palaver/...l=1#post103215
If you go to that link and do a "bookmark this page", it will take you directly to that post every time.
Wow. Never realized that. Lesson of the day.Quote:

Does anyone know how, or a program I can download to fix and/or recover files from a corrupted flash drive using Windows 10?
Try, this: https://www.easeus.com/resource/drive/usb-flash-drive.htmQuote:
