File sharing has been added to the site (using the same system as the forums, just different).

Your previous posts with files attached will be shown here, with the ability to delete them as well.

Please note the following:
- You must be at least a POWER EGG to upload files (besides through the forum).
- Only members of YN can download files.
- Limit of 8MB on the files.
- NO extension/type restrictions.
- If you violate copyright law or upload malicious files (virus, etc), I'll delete your account, ban your IP range, and notify your ISP of the violation.

Have fun!

One more thing:

You can see the download count too, however it's only in effect from today, so chances are you'll be marginally disappointed that you can't see how many downloads your previous post attachments have gotten.

If this system gets enough use, I'll add bandwidth info, and storage amounts (possibly related to member level). Also I may add in the ability for non-users to download files if uploaded by a high enough member level... To be determined.

For now, no limitation on total locker size, bandwidth, file types, downloads, or total files.

Yea, the inability to share some files drives me nuts. As long as they're stored right, and there's a good share of understanding that "this file may, or will probably, fuck your shit up if you don't handle it right."


P.S. - Added the smileys back in again.

There, fixed them showing up too.Member Added Image

Changed appearance of forum posts (Dodge's avatar looks slick on it).

Added new Online/Offline icons, and an Away icon after 10 minutes of inactivity (not tested yet).

FUUUU Windows 7.

Hell, you're busy today, huh?
I like the way the forum posts look, but I think I will miss the fade-to-blue. That was cool. And I see it's still here on the reply box... At least it is right now.

I like the on/offline/away icon. That will be more useful than strictly online/no online.

BTW, have I told you lately that you're fucking awesome?

It is Saturday, and I really had nothing to accomplish that was of any importance, so I transplanted all of my basil, sugar snaps, and garlic chives to a large pot (hey, $30 bucks for 72 plants is pretty good), and wrote code the rest of the day. Feels good to revisit some code I haven't in a while and improving it. That damn white page issue though -- I cannot seem to place it.

Thanks Dodgicus!

Thanks even more! Even though my stupid ass forgot your ratchet heads (which are at the old house, right next to where my server was)... Grumble.

I forgot all about those...
I have a piece of half-inch square stock that I filed the hell out of a while back, and the design seems promising. Hold off on sending them until things calm down at me jerb. I barely have time to play at my desk after work, let alone head out to the workshop. I wish I had more time. :-/

The file sharing is kind of cool. Lets hope no one is stupid and uploads potentially harmful things, or at least people would be smart enough to not download it.

Why do I feel like the first part of that sentence is directed at me? Oh, right. I remember now.

We know. You made valid points. And if, by now, any users (other than Peewee and Bre3bree) download malicious files, they deserve to get a virus. Scan everything.

As for uploading, I trust Toasty's security. Plus my own.

Honestly, wouldn't trust mine too much here as far as file sharing goes, I don't really do any double checking of it at all. Sort of just taking faith in the userbase here.

Personally, I don't mind waiting the extra second per 5 Mb (or whatever) for AVG to scan automatically after every download. Setting your AV to automatically scan (and update itself) really is the way to go.

Also, I do trust the current member base. This summer, though, I think we might get an influx, and I might be a little more leery.
