pictures

cant upload pictures to the site??? the site is telling me something along the lines the forum memory is full??? any input people? tom? mods?

Working on it I just need a credit card to sort it.

good stuff tom.

super! trev's pic's are starting to get to me!

Would it help Tom if everyone deleted some of the least favorite pictures from their albums?? Free up some space??

That would make thing alot cheaper and give us room to play with Rory.
I have been thinking of going in and deleting pics as there is a load that could be deleted

Heres a thought, or few...

Sending a newsletter to all asking people to cull their own posts/pic's might help.

Is it just pic's thats a problem? If not there is a lot of threads and posts that could be wiped out, without upsetting anyone. Deleting people's pic's might alienate people as it might not be the best fish or biggest but it has a value to someone?

What about just deleting pics from the posts and not the albums,and/or have links to the albums?

Set up an account for people to donate to for the up keep of the forum?

Maybe someone on here or knows someone that would like to sponsor the forum?

The tee shirt idea that was posted is a good way of making the site self funding.

I think it is unfair that Tom who set up this site for the good of all carp fishermen and women,
Pays out of his own pocket.
Given in this present economic climate money is tight for most. And I know Tom is not rolling in the money yet...
So I think if all the people on this site donated a small amount or brought a tee shirt or something for the good of the forum this would
go a long way to continue all the pleasure we all get. Not to mention information, help and social aspect of carp fishing in Ireland.


Does anyone have any other idea's??

Steve's right it aint fair - why not try the t-shirt thing? easy enough to do. is there a Graphic designer among the ranks who can draw up a simple logo/pic/design template? I can give you the details of the printer we used for the C.A.C.I gear if you cant find a place in cork.
might be an idea to also date each years run of T-shirts (with the year) so as to encourage members to buy a new one each year, retaining a source of revenue for the running costs.
regarding the pics - can you not give each member the ability to delete their own?

GG.

how do i delete pictures ,, just tried with no joy ,,

click on the photo you want to get rid of and just above it you will see a box with " original pic " in it.
click on that and it will give you a few options, find delete and click.

Cant see why we cant do the t shirts,we got hoodies for "club cfi" a couple of years back.Ive still got mine.Either that or a small subscription each year,just for running costs.It might keep some of one posters offsite.

O ye Still waiting on my hoodie!!!!!!!
Good idea!!!!!

What if you buy a tee you get access to the site if not you don't...? problem solved.
Got to be decent tee's though and in variety of sizes and colours ranging from Manatee to Dwarf and nothing that clashes with strawberry blondes, milky bar kids or any other minority group.

GG.

Tom if you come up to the show this year ill try and organise a sponsored walk you can stick the 50 i gave you for the cfi hoodie down for me that's my contribution.

Pmsl........

A gordon thats when times were good giving money away for noting

Dave Healy has stepped up to the mark and donated credits through the donation link at the bottom of the home page, we now have a good bit more space for people's images so post away lads.
Thanks Dave :-)

just an idea lads but would someone not organise a competition where its e20 entry and get someone to sponsor prizes for 1st 2nd and 3rd and the entry fee can be used to run the site for the year ! one or two competitions a year shud cover most of the costs for the site !
this is not only a way of keeping the site going but also a way of people who talk to each other on the site to actualy meet up and fish together wich they would probably never have done !
thats just my idea which i think would benefit everyone

i agree with dano on this one. sure what harm would it do, and would make a few euro for the site

suggestions for a venue? was something like this supposed to go ahead before on the lough
and it could not go ahead for one reason or another?? it would be a bit of craic alrite.

We had a few of them where we met up for a weekends fishing.
In reality not alot of people turn up for them but If people showed an intrest in doing it I would gladly sort it out.

I could help with clothing if needed...e.g. Hoodies inc VAT and 1 logo for €20...min order of 20.

Wat about inniscara a big lake dat would fit plenty of people on it and who nows wat fish it would trow up !

I have tried it dano, I even spent the week before it baiting up a few swims for people.
I think only 5 of us turned up and fished in 2 swims, there was about 7 swims all over the place baited up.
I hope I'm not sounding like I'm putting a downer on the idea though I would be happy to do the same again if people are up for it.
There is about 5 or 6 lakes around the country we could do it on
