danfrodo Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 My first attempt to actually upload a picture, let's see if it works: https://imgur.com/xQ5mdIl https://imgur.com/2fXhTha https://imgur.com/Y8eMVwu Playing Studienka as Soviets. Was having great fun, even knocked out first wave of panthers on hill to my left. Oh, but there's a second wave who are not so kind as to show me their flanks. Went from ~1000m gun duels to mix of ranged and point blank tank fights. A number of times I had first shot but shell deflected off tree branches, saving a panther and losing my first shot advantage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danfrodo Posted July 12, 2020 Author Share Posted July 12, 2020 Hey MikeyD, this only works for small files if one is a customer. I max out at 1.95Mb. And my screen shots are all ~4Mb. I was told in earlier posts a while back to "use imgur" but that just gives link so far. maybe folks are saving screenshots to smaller file formats? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Below is how I use Imgur for posting screenshots: Sign into imgur. Click Add images. Drag the photo into imgur. Click on photo (A menu will appear to the right). Click Huge Thumbnail (At the bottom of menu). (Original is same size as Huge Thumbnail) Click Copy – BBCode message boards & forums. Go to the forum Right click and paste the photo into the narrative box The URL will appear 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wicky Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 You don't need massive hi-resolution images = large file size 800–1000px should be good enough https://postimages.org 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky_Strike Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 @danfrodo I ran into this exact problem. If you click your profile top right you can manage your attachments under My Attachments. Once an image is added to a post you can delete the attachment in My Attachments and the image seems to remain. @MikeyD I notice you have in the order of 500MB of attachment storage! Care to share some around a bit Us mere mortals only seem to get a couple of measly MB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danfrodo Posted July 12, 2020 Author Share Posted July 12, 2020 Ha! Lucky Strike, that worked. It's like "this one simple trick will....". Super cool trick, thanks Here's view from behind the big battle. I have last screen of T34-85s that can engage anything that gets too far. Looks like a proper eastern front battlefield, wrecked tanks everywhere. the panther frontal armor was quite a problem but got hits into weak spots before this became more of a crisis. Meanwhile, on the ridge facing my center/right, a group of PZ4s is attacking. This one hit by an SU152 shell -- what a hole! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit of Pay it forward karma BTW your first image in you most recent post is not showing, at least not to me anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warts 'n' all Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 "Pay it forward Karma" being the name of a Johnnie Lenin track when he was still a member to The Bolshevik Beat Boys. Later when he joined the Rubber Omo Washboard Band it became "instant Karma". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
