BYC Conversion Questions & Answers (During Conversion)

[Turtle Rock Farm]

I was thinking the same thing. I lurk a lot and then go on posting sprees.
Maybe that should be my new name, mslurksalot.

Love it.

By the way, when BYC is back up, I have a hockey thread going that I'd love more peeps to pop into. So far we have 2 Habs fans and a Blackhawks fan.

Hi to my byc friends .
Just a update on Nutty and Belina.
My 2 pullets! We are now getting a egg a day off Nutty (my Rhode Island Red) while Belina is just just bemused by it all as she still hasn't laid .
I was a little concerned about Nutty laying in her bed and not bothering with the next box but today by my suprise she had made a nest and actually layer in there for me NO BIGGIE REALLY BUT REALLY GREAT FOR ME AND THE FAMILY AND TO NUTTY FOR FINALLY FINDING HER NEST BOX

So will any new pics we post NOT go into our galleries/albums...be overwritten....etc?

Wonders if number of pics is the issue or the size of pics that folks upload without setting cams to reasonable resolution or reduce file sizes in photo program before posting. Old dial up user here and still reduce my pic file sizes before up loading or emailing. File size must have an impact on server space, speed of file transfer, etc.
Sometimes, maybe, I think too much.

That's a very good point!! IMy phone was starting to act crazy,checked the storage. I had almost 2GB of chicken pictures on internal Phone storage. Did some house cleaning now phone is working. Lol

They will

So will any new pics we post NOT go into our galleries/albums...be overwritten....etc?

The new system (somewhat similar to the old site, but a little different) will have 2 main areas to upload pics into:

1. Directly into posts, messages, articles, reviews, etc.
2. Into an album / gallery that can be used and inserted into other areas.

It's a little confusing at first, but it will be more clear once we start using it.

No, nothing will be overwritten. We have that covered!

Those we add in a post save to a different area "My Attachments" accessed under your profile?

Yes, exactly! Images that go directly into posts, message, articles, etc. will be separate from image you put into albums in side the gallery.

Yes, and we're working with some REALLY awesome tech solutions that should help mitigate this.

We'll finger it out.....won't even ask any more questions until I play with it a bit.

I'm looking forward to getting back home too...and getting all the new things figured out...lol


@Nifty I've really appreciated (and I'm sure there are many others) the locked update thread where you've been keeping us updated. I haven't been able to get on as much as I'd like, so it's been really great to follow how things are going. It's also been nice to get a "behind-the-scenes" glimpse of what's happening and how things are done...for those of us who find it interesting.
