Mike,
Are there any plans for a file upload facility, or have I missed it?
Terry.

If you look below where you type when you are posting a message, you'll see "Additional Options".  Open that and you have the ability to attach files to your posts.

Thanks, I thought I'd probably missed it.
The format is very similar to another forum I occasionally use here in the UK.
Looking at the files sizes of some of the Yahoo forum uploads, there may be occasions when 128KB limit would be a problem.
Terry.

It's mainly meant for screen shots and small photos.  There are other options for hosting/sending large files.  Yousendit and RapidShare come to mind.  Since these forums are on my own site, I don't want to hog the site with attachments.  Gotta crawl before we walk.  ;)
