    Due to the high volume of traffic by guests (you are all very welcome to be here)

    I just discovered a feature on imtbtrails called "Notices". It totally makes sense and is an awesome feature.
    I set one up for Guests. When a Guest visits imtbtrails there is now a notice that appears letting them know why they can not see the pics on any of the forums. They can delete the notice, but it will reappear if they leave and return...

    This way they just don't think there is something wrong with the site or something is wrong with their computer or phone... good stuff!
    You can see the notice yourself if you log out, but it dissapears if you are logged in as a member...

    It simply says...

    Is there an option with this forum software to block photos and the user would have to click on the photo to view it? I mean when signed in.
    I kind of like not signing in and seeing just a text-only thread

    Bummer, I liked how I could look at the sight with pictures without having to log in but understand you have to do what it takes to keep the sight going. I think part of the problem may be the large png picture files. Months ago I noticed they would take a long time to load on to the sight and a long time to load the page when viewing. I have been reducing the files to 50% and convert to a jpeg and it loads up instantly. If everyone would do something similar or maybe a way to have it done automatically through a program, I think this would help. Going to miss sneaking a peak at work.

    @Grego , the site is defaulted to keep you logged in, once you are logged in. That should not be a problem.

    Thanks for wrenching on the site, Mikie.

    And for keeping the lights on. I'm sure I'm one of the worst bandwidth offenders, so triple thanks.
