All right people, the 2002 season finally ended, and I am sure a lot of you have lots of thoughts about this forum after posting/reading for the past few months.... (I know I do!)

I am sure Chief Delphi Forum moderators/administrators/webmaster really look forward to what you have to say about this place. So Please start posting comments/suggestions!!!

Let's try to help them improve this place as much as we can. ;)

Ok I have one...

Is there any way to have a standard size for the pictures in the photo gallery??? I know that there is a file size limit but can there be a size limit?? Alot of the pictures in the gallery are just to big for the screen. Maybe a limit of 400X600?? I just thought of this so you don't have to scroll to see the whole picture. I uploaded one once and it was under the max file size allowed but it came out huge!!!

Just a thought??

Also one question, is there a preference I can set that allows me to "sit" on the website for a few minutes and not be logged out automatically when I come back. Usually I log in and do a "View all new posts" and look at the forums that way. But....when I am called away from the computer for maybe 5 minutes and return I go to make a post or do something and I have to log in again!!!
Argghhhhh. That mean's I just lost my chance to view all new posts!!!

Thanks in advance!

I'm not sure if this is a bug, or what, but don't automatically mark all posts as read when logging in. I like to log in, and hit the "All New" button, but if I log out, and log back in, there will be 0 new posts. This makes reading the fourms throughout the day kinda hard... especially when I let them pile up to huge numbers (oops...)

Keep up the good work!

The picture size, some are aborrently large. They are too big when at 1240x1024 I have to scroll to see them all.

800x600 is so dinky.....

I guess I could add a per-user option, in which you can choose the height & width you would like the images resized to. All resizing would be taken care of by the browser, and you'd have a link to view at full-size if you desired to. I'd have to come up with a way to figure out the size of the image, and make smaller if necessary, or leave alone if its smaller than the desired size.

Hmm....

Mine would be a media galery, kinda like pictures, but also small video and sound.
