Double your money, try to get rich....

Soon i'll try to kill one of these guys.
I'm building my Cobra with these specs:

Upgraded Power Distributor
Upgraded Power Core
2 fixed Rail guns (primary) - Class D
2 gimballed Multicannons (secondary) - Class D
1 Point Defence Turret
Heat sink Launcher
Shield Bank

CE Bootis offer most of these upgrades, don't know how much it will cost

And I hope a whacking great power unit to power them, and a damn good FSD so you can jump more than 1.3ly. Oh, and uprated thrusters and good power management...and...and...

I know, it'll be a credits sinkhole With a wipe for the incoming Beta3 (likely) i can't aim to an Anaconda

But, but I want things presented to me on a plate. I spend all day on a PC, I don't want to have to bloody right-click when reading elitepve.com in my underwear.

All right, then don't wear underwear for cryin' out loud.

I reduced my pics to 800x600 and they still were too big to fit in a post. Sod making 'em smaller!

Anyway, thanks to Cmdr Mad Mags, I lost no less than two (count 'em - 2) Cobras yesterday evening.

Yes, Sir Mags, I am lumping the whole blame on yourself - knowing I was a combat virgin sprog and sending me off (okay, enticing me with stories of untold riches... ) to do dirty dogfights with the space raiders of Rakapila!

After having a well-kitted out Cobra III, with 100,000cr in the bank, I now have a ....

Well kitted out Cobra III with 400cr in the bank, in debt to loan sharks and a 10,000cr bounty on my head!

Cheers, Pal!

Mind you - I did get my first Elite D kill though I didn't get the paltry 300cr bounty for it

Now hang on a minute there. I said target and kill WANTED targets only. It's not my fault you got a blood lust and attacked a clean player is it?

Congrats on popping your kill cherry as well though.

Oh and if you shoot me, supposedly by accident, again...for a prolonged period of time before realising. I will break the no PVP rule.

The file size doesn't depend only on the image size, but also on its format. So if you're trying to upload a png and the forum complains that it's too big, try to convert it to jpg first (they're much more compressed).

I think he is not talking about the filesize, but the pics not showing in their total width. On the official forums if you include a very large picture the whole forum layout is destroyed, which I don't like in particular. They have spoiler tags to hide those pictures on load, still your broweser is loading the whole picture in the background, so if you're reading from a mobile device for example, it can be quite annoying and when you open the tag, the screen is blown up again . That is why I would prefer the pics embedded not being larger than 640px and having a link to the big picture.
We could allow for larger pics being displayed inline, but that would just look awful. I prefer the layout stays put.
As Mobius said, we might expand the site greatly in the future, not just limiting it to a phpBB forum. In that case there are quite a few solutions we could consider for allowing uploading giant screenshots, with automated preview and popup for total views. Until then, right click is the way to go

Oh, right. Thanks for the clarification, Wolf.
