If I understand this right, then the information for new members in the FAQ (How do I post images?) isn't correct anymore?

You'll need to get an external host that allows you to show images on different servers (generally referred to as "hot-linking"). You cannot post images directly from your hard drive, or attach them to our forum.

I read that before I posted my sketchbook and added my images as hotlinks, but according to this thread I now think I shouldn't have done that... or maybe I just don't quite understand it?

Yes, the FAQ is outdated (the reference to Geocities should have been a tipoff).

Well just because one site mentioned doesn't exist anymore doesn't mean the more important parts of the information also are outdated... this should really be updated, as the FAQ was the first place I went to after registering, trying to get everything right... well I suppose that didn't work out, lol.

how do you delete attachments from the image manager? I don't see any option in the window. It seems to have changed from the last time I used this forum.

I'm really sorry for asking (what I guess is a really really dumb question) but I wanted to open a sketchbook thread. Reading this beforehand I wanted to use the attachment manager. There it says my jpg may not be biger than 537 kb. So I have a pic of a sketch and when I saved it in photoshop and changed the scale (wheter it's a small or big file) and put it against null it was still too big (570 kb). Can anyone help me please?

Change your image size to around 800-900 pixels (long dimension) and use the Save For Web function in Photoshop to save as a jpeg at medium or high quality..
