But...what I really want to know is how to place graphics in Mudcat without wasting Trillions of Gigabytes on your server?

Dan Mulligan did it but I imagine if everyone started at that caper you would end up using thirty or forty times your current disk space. Plus, every thread containing graphics would take hours to load.

Could there be a special section, thread or a database allocated to graphics which could be cleaned out every two weeks or so?

Pictures are useful and even neccessary at times and it would be a great addition to the service you provide. I know I'm being a pain in the arse...but...I think a lot of Mudcatters would love to post maps, drawings of new badhran designs, LP covers and all sorts of useful stuff.

Sorry for raising issue but some other pain in the arse is going to raise the question sometime. I still have deepest respect for the great service we have now.
