Its seems pretty frustrating for many members when they are trying to upload their beautiful guitar’s pics and show it in our forum. (Due to many security restriction in image hosting web site)

1. Hence, I have given the right to all members to upload images to our server. The maximum files size per image has been set at 300K. We all love beautiful guitar pictures are I encourage you to upload your guitar's images and share it with us! (You can reload any existing threads' images to our server if theres a problem when viewing)

I shall have this option available for a month and see if it increases the loading and usage rate of our website dramatically. (More usage/loading = additional cost ). If its within our server’s current capacity, I will keep this option for good.

2. I have also added the Avatar/Picture URL. Function, in which members can choose an image of their own or one from our collection and have it displayed below your name.

Please see instructions of the above features below:

Post an Attachment
Whenever you post a new topic or a reply, you have the option to upload an attached file (assuming your board owner has allowed it). After you have written your message, check this box that says “post attachment”. Click “Post Now,” and you will have the opportunity to browse to an attachment, name it, and upload it with your message. Note that your board owner has the ability to limit file size and type; you may wish to check with him/her regarding any restrictions on this feature.

Avatar / Picture URL:
You can choose an avatar to show on your public member profile page. Your avatar will also be displayed below your name on each of your posts. Go to MyPop>Profile>Edit Avatar, then select your Avatar there or insert your own by clicking “Custom Avatar”

You are encouraged to fully utilize our features, please go to our User Guide below for more details.
