thanks for the gallery, seems to work pretty good. not sure if gif and flash are accepted?
Flash wouldn't be, I'm not sure about GIF but I doubt it somehow.
one way to find out realy
That was what I was thinking, I'll have a play later. :)
i just uploaded a gif,flash(swf) and an avi. space available is 500 megs
very good ;D
I'm amazed at the flash. Thanks for letting me know. :)
one of them doesn`t display, (but can be downloaded) can`t remember which one cos i`ve been up all night lol
I don't tend to do that anymore - I just feel like I have been. ;)
i`m gonna get some shut eye now m8, cya l8r
Sleep well. :)
Just discovered that you can remove exif details etc. I learn all the time, a lovely Christmas gift from IDNET. ;D
I've taken them off mine, Alf - can't give away too many trade secrets. :)

I've uploaded a photo ok, but when I tried to upload a 98MB mpeg it refused. Anyone any ideas?
It's probably an unsupported format, Colin. I haven't seen a definitive list, but I'll try and find one.
OK, thanks Rik. If it is to support films (and it seems to support avi) then I'd have thought mpg ought to be included - possibly even wmv.
I've been looking at the documentation (click on the Gallery icon, bottom left) and the way I read things is that users install a graphics library, which determines what file types are supported, so there isn't a standard set.
I'll try and get a list if I can.
That sounds similar to Coppermine, which I use to host family photographs on our website. The administrator can set all sorts of limits, including file types. I can always put my film there if it turns out not to be allowed here.
I've sent an email, but obviously, it might not get the normal response this coming week.
Once I have a list, I'll publish it here.
Quite! Thanks, Rick.
the file was too big, it says something like 8 meg max at one time
Note: You can upload up to 8 megabytes at one time. No individual file may be larger than 5 megabytes. If you want to upload more than that, you must upload the files separately, use a different upload format, or ask your system administrator to allow larger uploads.

Doh - I missed that!
We may be able to tease a larger file size out of IDNet. What sort of figure are you thinking of?

Perhaps 100MB - enough, say, for a video of a Christmas party that friends and relatives can either stream or download. I'm not too bothered to be honest, Rik, as I do have web space elsewhere (although it's starting to get a bit full!) plus IDNet's ordinary web space that I haven't used yet, and I certainly don't want to abuse what I think is a very generous offer of a facility from IDNet - which I imagine they intended to be used just for photographs.
You can see why I was querying bandwidth. If 10 of my relatives download a 100MB film that's 1GB gone for starters! Equally, I suppose that's already the case with the normal web space that IDNet gives us.
Martin has given me the list of supported file formats (so much for support being closed!):
application/photoshop (psd)
audio/basic (au snd)
audio/midi (kar midi mid)
audio/mpeg (mp3 mp2 mpga)
audio/x-aiff (aif aifc aiff)
audio/x-ms-wma (wma)
audio/x-wav (wav)
image/bmp (bmp)
image/gif (gif)
image/jpeg-cmyk (jpgcmyk)
image/jpeg (jpg jpe jpeg)
image/png (png)
image/svg+xml (svg)
image/tga (tga)
image/tiff-cmyk (tifcmyk)
image/tiff (tiff tif)
image/vnd.wap.wbmp (wbmp)
image/x-photo-cd (pcd)
image/x-portable-pixmap (ppm)
video/mp4 (mp4)
video/mpeg (mpe mpeg mpg)
video/quicktime (qt mov)
video/x-flv (flv)
video/x-ms-asf (asf)
video/x-msvideo (avi)
video/x-ms-wmv (wmv)
He's going to look into large file uploads, more news as I get it. :)
Wow I'm amazed, all those formats, however I have to admit I don't even no what some of them are ;D
I've not come across flv Phil, most of the rest I know, but why there's support for CMYK files for online display does puzzle me. :)
If there is a maximum amount of available space (500mb?) is there an issue about individual file size from IDNet's POV? Surely they could look at it and just see it that a customer has 500mb to use, and the number of files using that space is up to the customer.
Martin plans to deal with the file size limit, Lance, but I'm not sure when he will implement changes.
Martin has changed the upload size to 80MB today.
Thanks Rik, and Martin!
Thanks from me too.
