Re: Trailer Build
To clarify, the weight of the trailer is yet to be determined, depending on rebuilding decisions yet to be made. Over here the maximum legal weight for an unbraked trailer, on my tow vehicle, is 750kg. In some ways, I am surprised that the legal limit is lower over there, as most non commercial limi...

Trailer Build
I bought this trailer about five and a half years ago, with the intention of building a small light-weight camper on it. Then priorities changed.

Re: Photo Hosting

I have no idea about the actual space that the photos already here would take up, but it would be quite a lot. But even if we did have the c...

Re: Photo Hosting
Another option, which would probably be easier for most people would be something like a Hostgator.com site which cost about $7 - $10 per month. They take care of most of the security issues, and all of the Operating system issues. They also have one click installation for things like photo gallery ...

Re: 1935 Chevy school bus
I do, of course, have all my pics stored on my own computer as well as on pb so maybe there is a way to post from home??? Jack The biggest issue with this is that home internet connections typically have what is called dynamic ip addresses (ie they change), where as you need to have a static ip add...

Photo Hosting
With the demise of free webhosting on Photobucket, this forum and others around the web have found a large number of photos have disappeared. So the question is, where to from here for posting photos to the forums. The biggest issue is really about the amount of disk space that hosting photos for a ...

Re: 1935 Chevy school bus

Re: 1935 Chevy school bus
$40 per month? Wow! :evil: The server that this forum is on only costs $12.50 per month, including backups. I also host a hubzilla instance and use it as my personal cloud server too. Admittedly, I do have to watch how much space I use, because I am also hosting public websites. (the forum and Hubzi...

Might be worth trying email directly. Seems that emails from the forum are often classified as spam now, so alerts to messages might not be getting through.

Re: hello
Things are pretty quite around here these days. But we aren't going anywhere. Just waiting for some new interested faces, or some old ones to become interested again.
In the mean time, the old archives are here for anyone to peruse.
