1325685 2013-01-31 22:59:00 There is probably a valid reason why PressF1 images can only be seen if a member is logged on, but I find it rather irritating, and it must be doubly so for those just passing through. Terry Porritt (14)

Chill / Zara - is this just a default setting that we could get changed, or is there a reason for this restriction?

1325687 2013-01-31 23:45:00 Probably an small oversight when we turned it on yonks ago.

Zara, your thoughts on enabling it?

1325689 2013-02-01 01:43:00 Thanks :)

I'll run it past the powers that be first, just in case. It shouldn't affect the 'load' of the server too much but should really get permission before making a change.

If we switched it off, it would have been because of server load, I'd guess. I'll check the tech-folk. :)

1325691 2013-02-01 01:50:00 Actually, there may be another reason, which would be that we wanted to ensure that any photos posted here were only visible to those who are part of the community - just in case people/their houses, etc are shown. A privacy concern, possibly?

I'm checking if there is a reason, anyway, with the folks that should know, and will get back to you. although I am currently on my way to China, so may not get back to you within the next week. :-/

BTW - Thanks bevy121 for pointing out where the change is :)
