With the newly placed photo attachments, this is the procedure for placing photos on site. I would appreciate it if members would advise me if there are any problems with the advice given: (1) Create thread (2) Place title in subject box (3) Add a caption about the photo. (4) Click on add attachment (5) A box appears. Click on add files (you can place up to five photo attachments in the thread). Your selection will come up. Click on it, then click on Add Files. The file will continue. (6) Continue the process if you wish to add more photos on the subject up to a maximum of five attachments. Ensure that the size of the attachment does not exceed 2MB. :::: As with all procedures your confidence will grow as you use the system and you could even find your own short cuts in regard to photo attachment placing.

As of today, October 7, 2013, there is a problem with Proboards in regard to this site being able to load Attachments. I had to change the M&S card that I was using to meet the monthly $3 dollar charge. Proboards last accepted a payment against this card on August 13, 2013. In the period following this I had to change the M&S card (done successfully). However, when Proboards attempted to take the $3 dollar payment for September, the bid was rejected by them. I then had a message pointed up to the fact that the account was no longer valid because of my change of card. Consequently, on Sunday, October 6, 2013, I opened a new Proboards account with my new M&S card to continue the facility to use photo attachments. This was accepted in an email from Proboards within minutes. However, since then several MCP members have made attempts to load new attachments and been rejected by Proboards with a message saying the facility was not available. This means that at the present time the attachment service on this forum is not operational. Proboards are not the easiest of companies to contact - most of their emails (including the one that accepted the account renewal) are all "no reply" email addresses. They also suggest if there is a problem to contact their Support Forum but unfortunately they locked out this forum some months ago following, it appears, our complaints when they were upgrading forums from v4 to v5 format. However, I have managed to track down their Press Agent and have given details to him of the current problem with a request at 10am for him to forward my email to Proboards. As of 23.04pm - some 12 hours later - I have not received any acknowledgment either from Proboards or the PA, despite this request being resent by send again email earlier this evening. admin, Midget Car Panorama.

Why don't you again close the new account and renegotiate the account. I think if you also tell M&S what they've done they'll block the latest deal that's foundered. It looks like a real pain in the you know where trying to deal with the Proboards lot.

administrator, It appears you purchased additional theme storage space, which is separate from the post attachment system. I've refunded that purchase for you and have sent a PM to your inbox here with additional details. I hope this helps!

I have read the message and will attempt to revive the Attachment fitting for MCP. It also looks as though I owe Proboards an apology - which I readily make. Admin, Midget Car Panorama.

The recent problem in regard to loading Attachments has now been resolved. The Proboards service is now fully operational. The first photo to be placed since the restart is that of GP Midget Club racer Tom Keep in front-engine GP cars.
