This is an outdated announcement. Pay no mind.

Timog boarders!

I noticed people are starting to post pictures. That’s good! Please see below for guidelines:

Maximum width and height in pixels: 545 x 1090 Maximum size in kilobytes: 80K
Allowed extensions for images: .bmp, .gif, .jpe, .jpeg, .jpg, .png

Maximum number of attachments: 20

Tip: If you’re editing a 545 x 365 pixel jpeg file (which is proportional to the size of a scanned negative) with Photoshop or Elements, saving it with a “4” to “6” quality will likely give you a file under 80 kilobytes.

Besides images, documents are also allowed. Please see below:

Document type: .doc Maximum size: 100K
Document type: .pdf Maximum size: 100K
Document type: .txt Maximum size: 80K
Document type: .zip Maximum size: 100K

Please be reminded that downloading files (especially zip and doc files) may infect your computer with virii. We highly recommend installing an antivirus software in your computer.

one tip when saving files to post here. if you’re using photoshop or adobe elements, use “save for web” instead of “save as…” then adjust the quality to fit the allowed file sizes. using “save as…” instead of “save for web” will result in a larger file even if you have the same quality setting because it will include additional data such as metadata and thumbnail previews within the file.
