Never did the milk thing

I have done every one including the milk thing. Here in Sanpete County, UT we still have a drive-in movie theater. Our riding club does a movie night there every August. It doesn't matter what the movie is, we bring lawn chairs, and someone brings a portable radio to tune to the FM station they broadcast the sound over. Tons of fun.

However: we all know about taking scripture out of context to prove a particular point. :bowdown:

Testing something here;

It seems to work with the smaller size files.

What is the max file size for attachments anyway?

I do a lot of digital animation, so rather than posting a silly picure, I am going to share one of my animations tonight.

Maybe.......

It looks to me like that 'animated logging truck' image worked OK! :thumbup:

If you open the Go Advanced Edit or Post Entry page, scroll down past the text field to the Additional Options box and on to the Attachments section, and then click on 'Manage Attachments' (which BTW, IMHO is the ONLY good way to properly & safely add attachments to your posts :lecturef_smilie: ) then scroll down past the 'Upload files' section to the box labelled 'Attachment Key', it tells you the maximum size AND dimensions of each of the acceptable file types - and they aren't either/or! It doesn't matter what way you post them or add them, your files & images MUST comply with BOTH the maximum size criteria AND the maximum dimension criteria in all respects, or the Forum Platform will either treat them oddly or reject them entirely! :shocked:

All that said, some non-platform generated/accepted animations often create 'unintended issues' with posts & threads - we had one just a short while ago that stopped anyone viewing it without 'thanking' & 'liking' the post; and another in a title that stopped readers from going to their last unread post in the thread; instead, always forcing them to scroll down from the first post in the thread.... So be warned - some animations might cause issues, and if they do, they might be deleted by Mods/Admin without notice.

Good Luck! :cheers:

Thanks for the info. I did attach that one with the forum Manage Attachments app.

My smaller animations are only a few simple frames and I do create them from scratch myself, so I don't think they will cause any problems with the forum.

I am sure the large spinning animations will not work on here. I will stay within the posted limits with the small ones.


I did just now go back and scroll down to find the max file size and image size. Missed that before.

I don't know about animations but my experience has been file size didn't seem to matter much. I use the icon to insert them and it appears the forum software will resize large file size images to fit the posting parameters.

There are some occasions/circumstances where the Forum software might take larger sized files and adjust them to suit, IF they don't exceed the parameters too much; and others where it might seem to work for you, the poster, but then doesn't necessarily work for everyone else (only it tends to do that 'accept oversized images & re-size them' thing most often if you use 'Manage attachments' to upload them, plus the Forum will then keep them and display them forever instead of losing the image &/or link at some later date :sour: ) This generally means that either the Mods hafta go into the background and do some re-sizing; or alternatively, that image just won't work for at least some of your potential viewers, and sometimes when that happens, they can't even open the thread, let alone your post with its over-sized image!:banghead:

So even if you think you might be getting away with posting larger images by whatever means, if you want all your potential readers to see your pics/images, it's still ALWAYS a good idea to try and stay within the posted size & dimension limits! :thumbup:

You get the same thing in the mountains. If you live in the valley, the sun goes down behind the mountains about 3 PM, depending on how high the mountains and how deep the valley. Sun don't come up over the mountains to the east until mid-morning.

I was trying to think of something positive to say about the mountains in Florida but nothing came to mind! :dontknow:

I live in Florida, and I was born in Florida, but I have not been in Florida all my entire life.

Seen on a bumper sticker in Ruidoso New Mexico: "If God had wanted Texans to ski he'd have given them a mountain" LOL
