Yeah so he might, but I think he does care. He'd rather be the top poster than Ozzy. Nothing wrong with that, - I'd be the same!

Anyway you said this, - have u changed yr mind?:

Well for now I've been persuaded to leave things as they are .... there may indeed be a way to archive the old posts in a compressed format.

There are many valuable postings that go way back & can be found in a search - example Aircraft Design - & wiping old stuff may be a little like ripping out the first half of a book ...

My suggestion is that rather than delete what could be valuable information to someone, limit the posts in Photos and screenshots to one or two months tops. I think that would free up a bunch.

Paul - just get ACDSee - or Irfanview - there is no reason any 800pixel wide image needs to be over 40/80K. You just aren't compressing them (enough)..

It's the lack of care that gets images deleted. Period 8)

mmm ... no - Like I said - this is a program with defined options ....
