Attachments + Hosting

[Shockwave]

Some of you are aware that you can attach certain types of file to your post for other forum members to download, the limit used to be 60kb, I have increased this to 100kb and I have also permitted the .zip and .rar extensions.

IMPORTANT!

THE OWNER OF THIS BOARD IS NOT RESPONSIBLE IF ANY ATTACHEMENT DOWNLOADED CAUSES DAMAGE TO YOUR COMPUTER OR SOFTWARE!!

Please don't abuse it, it could be a really useful feature for people with small-ish files to host and no webspace.
The files are held on the DBF server, I reserve the right to delete any files without reason at any time as I deem necessary. This would most likely only happen where a file contravenes the board rules in some way.

Please feel free to try out this feature because there were problems with a .txt attachment that Clyde posted, though I've tested it as an admin, regular user and moderator and I could download it fine each time.

If you get any error messages, please post them.
Thanks.

Yeah, it should work, I haven't tested it much yet though... It worked the first and only time that I tried it.

I'll edit my Blitz Theme topic, for a try out in a bit dude.

It's funny that.. I tested that topic and could not get an error, it downloaded fine each time.

In about half an hour or so, I'll add a zip of the theme. See if that works for others too.

All seems to be working fine. Thanks for testing it Clyde.

No worries mate.

For the time being it is cool to attach files of up to 750 kb to your posts.
