I've been experiencing some problems in getting the photos to appear on the new archive board.
I't easy enough to get them to appear as links which have to be clicked on in order to see the pics, but to get them to appear already opened requires separate hosting.
Setting up a photobucket.com account, putting your pics in it, and linking to your photobucket picture URL by enclosing it within the [ img ] [ /img ] tags will make your picture appear already opened, and make it a lot easier to move them to the new boad and make them work on it.

I set up a fishforums account for everyone to use, BUT it won't work because the bandwidth limit would be very quickly exceeded. Oh well. However, if everyone has their own account, the archive photos will probably never exceed their bandwidth, resulting in photos which are always available for visitors to see.

Photobucket is very easy to use, and I recommend it. It's not a requirement for posting profile pictures, but it would be very much appreciated if you did use it.
