Hello again everyone. I know I've been a bit quiet again recently, but things are still being worked on in the background, and we are getting there slowly but surely.
I have finally fixed the Image Upload problem for premium members. The file size limit is 4mb. This should be more than enough to cover most smart phone cameras these days. If you have more than 12mp camera on your phone, you may need to reduce the max resolution down to 12mp max, else the file size will be too big (my phone has 16mp camera and pictures are usually a little over 4mb). This function is available to all premium members and allows you to upload pictures directly to the forum without having to use an external photo hosting website.
You will notice that the whole website is now SSL protected (you'll see https:// rather than http:// in the address bar. It will also say "Secure" in browsers such as Chrome). This adds an additional layer of security to your personal details held on the website. It will also help to improve out Google search rankings, so anyone looking for Elgrand related questions on Google will get more EOC hits now.
The other thing that was sorted last night is the Wiki. This has now been restored back to pretty much where it was. There are no users assigned other than myself at the moment, so if you want to help out and contribute to the Wiki, please let me know and I'll set you up with a user account.
There is still more to be done, and I am working through the list. I know the shop needs updating with new products (especially the keyring!). Please be assured that I am getting there, but bear in mind that I do also have a life that I do like to lead.
Hope this update is welcomed and as usual, if there are any problems or concerns, drop me a message.
