I'm going to ask that if you are going to put images on this thread, link from an outside source, or upload to the image gallery. Doing this will keep the forum backup downtime smaller.
The forum backup could potentially take quite a long time if there are tons of unnecessary attachments (which are stored in the database).
So --
link from an outside source (your own website, etc) - OR - upload to the image gallery, and then link from then.
If you can't do those, then attach to the post ...
Thanks
(im just avoiding a thread with 45 omages attached to it ..)
