Hi all,

The ability to upload attachments to OA has been removed due to various constraints.


If you wish to share something on OA that you would usually upload via an attachment, I would recommend using one of, or a mixture of the following providers:

ImageShack
Photobucket http://www.opelaus.com/forums/showthread.php?15910-How-to-Post-Photos-on-the-Forum-Using-Photobucket
TinyPic
YouTube
If you use a provider or even your own hosting, simply paste the link to your attachment into the text box where you would make your post. Links will not be parsed, so they will show up as you paste them (e.g. www.mydomain.com/attachments/imagename.gif (http://www.mydomain.com/attachments/imagename.gif)).

Users can then click on your link and be taken to the attachment.

We realise that this decision may anger some people - but it makes the management and running of OA alot smoother.



Cheers Peter
