I've been trying to keep up with the changes in the Forum format, and today learned that my gallery space was decreased by 60%. When did that happen, and why?

The gallery space has been reduced to conserve space but allow an average of 5-10 photos for each of our members to post their progress and success, etc. As it's growing rapidly, we need to ensure there's enough space for everyone, and we will be adding more diskspace.

If you need more space, please consider becoming a contributing member, as it will give you more gallery space (and help us add more space) and other benefits:

Well, I pm'ed you concerning membership/Pay Pal/credit card concerns a few months ago, and didn't get further useable info.

Does this mean that by joining now, I would only get 40% of the gallery space that people who joined last month have received? Or has their gallery space been reduced by 60% as well? This is not a great enticement for membership. And if their space has been reduced as well, that speaks volumes.

As an artist, I tend to express myself visually more than verbally. This has greatly diminished my enjoyment of this forum.

I think I've adressed your concerns in the PM to the best of my ability, if you had further concerns, or any unanswered questions, you may PM me again if you want too.

The space for contributing members have not been reduced, since in total it's a lot less than the space allocated to 45,000 members, and does not impact our servers disk space as much.

Thank you, Tamarian! Your PM cleared this up for me. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
