RE-INTRODUCTION TO THE FORUM

It's weird that the limit is 65000, as opposed to 65536 (i.e. maximum number of distinct values for a 2-byte counter).

My Servimg account under Stryker2011 does indeed have 65536 images in it. I just can’t add more.

I found this in the Servimg Terms of Use:

Servimg reserves the right to delete any hosted image that has had no access, loading, viewing or display on a web page for 5 years.

No need to "prune" older posts. Servimg will do it for you, apparently, if the content has not been accessed in half a decade or more.  

Say... this forum just passed that milestone. I wonder if images on some of the earliest posts that have not been visited in a long while will begin to disappear?

Thanks for the heads up, I didn't know that.

That is a good question. I suppose anyone who has been using Servimg for over five years could go in and look at their oldest images -- which would be accessing them -- and one can do that there, which would be easier to track down than here.

As for pay options, there are some both for Forumotion and Servimg (which are, of course, interconnected), but from what I discovered when researching solutions and workarounds for Mark's issue, even pay accounts are subject to this particular limitation.

Late re-welcomings!

I upload my images to imgur (not publicly) and link them from there to here when I post, not sure if imgur deletes them after 5 years or if there's even a cap on how many you can store.

welcome back Jedi master!

Welcome back, Mark! It's like you were never away

In addition to uploading the most photos (I didn't know there was a limit until now), doesn't Mark also hold the record for most Pre-orders, as well?

Hey, great avatar, rootleaf! is there a post where you show off your figure?

Probably— and it’s currently kicking my butt financially since medical expenses have gone through the roof lately.

Ha! I was refining her tricorder but yes, I'll post it in General Topics later today.

Sorry to hear about the medical part. Hope you get better!

"He who dies with the most toys, wins!" ...so you're basically guaranteeing the 'W'?

Thanks for the well wishes, but it’s an ongoing issue that (unfortunately) isn’t going to get better.

That being said, I guess I am trying to make that win before the inevitable.
