We're now at 27.23 MB out of 30 MB at the Photo lab. We'll soon have 
to police the site to free up some room. I'm thinking, for one, of 
dropping old pal Walt's pics; they are nowhere near current for him. 
Elaborate as they are, Otacon's pics are way out of date, too. Both 
of these venerable e-drum pioneers can re-up later, maybe when we 
have a better location for photos. If anyone has other suggestions, 
or knows of pics by lapsed members, let us know. Taking a cue from 
Erik, we can always add links to pics in the meantime.

Ed,

I noticed the same thing about the space filling up, when folks started
adding pics recently.  Several ideas came to mind last night to remedy the
situation.

1. Ask members to initially post pics at a higher resolution, so that we can
all enjoy the fruits of their labor and after a month or so to resample them
at  a lower resolution and repost. Maybe the Higher resolution photos could
be shifted to Dtxpression site, depending on how much space is available
there. 

2.With idea no. 1 in mind, I think it would be interesting for other members
to post their sets. So, maybe the way to go is to setup a new photo album
labelled "New Kit Pics" that members can add their name as sub-folders with
their new pics. After 30-60 days, the pics can be "archived" at a lower
resolution in a sub-folder called "Archived Kit Pics". This will have the
benefit of getting good details initially and the long term benefit of
keeping as many photos as possible, but with taking up a minimal amount of
space.

We could still maintain the separate photo album for actually pics of
dtxpress components. 

Any thoughts??

That sounds good to me. We can also remind people periodically to 
upgrade their archived pictures. People could also illustrate points 
on the board with pictures, as you've done with your anatomical 
layouts.

Before anybody starts to delete any photos from the albums, give me a chance
over the weekend to archive them on my one of my home systems, since I have
two 120GB hard drives of storage space there. 

Thanks,

Howdy!

Well incidentally earlier today, I was going through
the picture section and when I got to my kit's pic I
click to see the full sized picture, and there I had
the option to delete only the full size images, and so
I did just making use of some common sense....

Hey if I could do it, anyone can :P

Greetings.
