"reserved" comment posts and image hosting

[B0Z]

I was planning on putting my nearly done garage in the gallery, but wanted to know what the general policy / etiquette is for reserving the first 3 or 4 comments in the thread for spill over if I happen to get wordy.

Also... what's the general consensus on free image hosting. I usually use imgur, but apparently they figured it out and blocked well-trafficked forums. I've seen a couple of folks use flickr and tinypic, but honestly, I'm really tired of the ad-driven lack of full screen display when you click through an image. I can host them on my own server, but wanted to see if there was a consensus solution first.

Just post your pics on GJ
Use the paper clip icon or the manage attachemnts section of the edit menu.

No reason to reserve spots when creating threads. Just post as you go, no big deal. I've never understood why members want to reserve "spots" for their posts in a thread.

I have found that when members reserve spots, they make their posts and never answer questions from their fellow members about the build going on. It doesn't become an interactive thread and dies fairly quick.



As far as pictures go, some of the PB pics can still be seen but not all. Imgur doesn't allow lining to sites that have a classified section, which rules out GJ. You can always attach your pics to your post but do remember, you are limited on file size.
