    Default Increased Image Amount?

    Can you increase the amount of images that can be posted in a single post?
    I feel as if 5 isn't enough when you're showing a game or reviewing one.

    Also, how about a guide/walkthrough forum?
    It would be a place where someone could guide the reader through a game step-by-step.

    I like the idea of a thread/folder where game spoilers could be posted. At the least maybe "spoiler alert" can be used in a title.

    Most boards have a a mod which allows spoiler tags for something like that. Text would be encompassed between [spoiler]...[/spoeiler] and when viewed you have to press a button first to see the actual text. Would be a good idea regardless of a seperate walkthrough board or not. I have missed this feature in the 1112 thread for example.

    As for images, we have a problem: bandwidth. If you need to upload images, you can put them in your flickr account and link them in here. But 5 images of 100kb is more than we use for our reviews simply because of bandwidth. Besides, if you can write a good review, you only need one image to say 1000 words.

    At first I thought OP meant number of img tags allowed (used to uploading images to my own domain to link them) so I got confused for a bit ^.

    And usually in reviews I see most people use less than 5 images but the forum would be a good suggestion.

    @juubee Actually you were right the first time. OP was referring to img tags allowed as he linked images from Tinypic hosting in his "We Rule" by ngmoco post.

    Regardless of using [img] [/img] (preferred way) or uploading as attachments, we've set the limit to 5 for the time being. We could revisit this in the future, but as it stands, we feel 5 is sufficient.

    As for the spoiler tags, that is one of the things on our forums todo list and one we'll be looking at shortly. Not sure if a separate section will go up for walkthroughs, but at the very least, a spoiler system will be implemented (like the one nineswords pointed out)

    Thanks Folks!
