Actually the "Photos" section was only 25% filled. And only because
people keep uploading large images, when it only shows everyone a
300x400 file (except the uploader and the listowner).

As for the Files section: One thing that would help is to crop. I see
some images that have miles of bench around the central image. I
understand posting a large image so that we can zoom in and see
closeups, but not all images benefit from this. A picture of a
panelized 4x5 set of boards should be cropped down to one board.

Deleting files that may have been posted only to illustrate a point
long lost in the archives will help, too.

If it really becomes a problem, we can do as the Amateur Video Editing
and AlpsDecal lists did, I can start a no-post list called
Homebrew_PCBs2 just to store files.

I'm off to do that right now.
