The image that you have attached is too big. Please make it no bigger than 600 x 0.
Hay Dan, Mark, some of us are having trouble downloading Civ 2 screenshots onto threads. Is there an FAQ about this?

Above is the message I get, which doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

Your attachments must equate to zero.

Simple really, they've averaged the value of your 20K various posts...

The width of the images must not be bigger the 600 px. Crop/Resize it.

Mark, over in the other games forum there's a Doom3 screenshot included in the tread 'bout Doom3 that's 1024 x 768. Are there diffenet rules for different forums?

That image isn't attached, instead an IMG tag was used. With IMG tags any kind of images can be shown, but they must be stored on a server.

Duh! That's what you get for not bothering to check all that freakting HTML. Is this considered a good thing to do though? I understand a lot of server owners get justifiably upset at that use of their bandwidth.

Well, giving a link instead of posting a picture is usually preferred by server owners. At least that's the image Geocities has given with their policy...

BTW, you don't need to check the HTML. Just right-click and get the address of the image and you'll see where it's stored .

Likewise in both Mozilla and IE (so I would assume Netscape as well) right clicking and going to properties shows the size of the image.

You could also just check to see whether or not there's a line saying "Poster has attached the following image"...

Right click on the image, and select "properties."

At least that's how it works in Mozilla, YMMV.
