    Amazon S3 or HDD VPS for image storage? (~200 GB)

    What do you plan to do with the photos? For a simple back up, you can use an Amazon Prime for unlimited storage space and there are plenty of photo services that will display your photos for little money with unlimited plans.

    Wordpress Minor Customization Help

    The easiest way would be the plugin. But it's also very easy (depending on the template) to just add whatever you need in the header.php file of the active template.

    XenForo 2.0 Discussion

    We aren't suggesting that XenForo should be another Facebook. We are saying that the ease of use of Facebook is required. Why should someone have to read a FAQ to use a website? Do we really have to have a complex UX/UI? Sound like a bad design to me. I hate Facebook groups because they...

    XenForo 2.0 Discussion

    As designed Image Proxy Doesn't Update New Images with the Same Link

    If the link has the same path/image name, the old image will always be used. For example, the NOAA uses all of their outlooks as the same link and image name. When you post the link, the proxy never grabs a new one, it just displays the old. You can see the bug here...

    Anyone else get this on their forum?

    Well, I guess people were only getting through Facebook! This is really bad! Just switched to Quark and it worked on a test account. I thought it was a joke at first because of the grammar and spelling... Thanks for your help!

    Anyone else get this on their forum?

    I'm assuming this is some pissed off spammer - haven't tested my log on to see if it doesn't work but there has been a few sign ups recently... Image removed due to it containing profanity, which is a breach of rule 1.

    Windows 10

    If that's the case, the final version should be much faster. Windows 8.1 is faster for me than 10 (not gaming, just regular web browsing etc.).

    xF Site for My School

    There are a few companies that make software for education (which have forums but are nowhere near as good as xenForo). Blackboard webCT and there was another but I forget the name. I like Blackboard better anyway. Google Apps is free for schools too (not sure about high school). While...
