    And if people would read the rules/sticky on posting airguns, there'd be about 5000 less

    We are looking to add this, pending confirmation. No exact timescale.

    That's superb news, I think it will really enhance the forum for the better.

    Aye sounds good.

    It would be an idea to have an AGBBS franking mark somewhere added to the images to prevent commercial misuse by online image pirates.

    The lack of ability to put diagrams directly into posts has been the reason I have not put any technical posts onto this forum. There are a number I have created to try to help shooters understand the mechanics of pellet flight and put onto another forum which cannot be put on here as the diagrams are vital. It is practically impossible to explain some technical aspects of pellet flight etc. without diagrams.

    Not sure who my money would be on but it would have to be on exactly the same member who is going to abuse the picture hosting protocol as it stands at the moment. Luckily the BBS is not like the SNP in as much as it is not penalising the responsible because of an idiot minority.


    Kindest regards

    You may be right. Would be a shame if it was abused as in pictures instead of typing a reply unless it was to show an example as in your pellet holder thread.

    Just posting a pic to troll is not good . Given that some do it already (via links) says it may just happen

    It would be great to read your opinions and especially to hear from the Moderators as to what the rationale is being this not being able to be done at the moment.

    Personally I think if you could more easily post pictures without going through a third party hosting site such a Photobucket it would make a great forum even better adding both more colour and variety of information.
