Compared to CDWeatherboard or whatever it is called and the AW Forum, is this the only discussion forum where you can post images easily?

Big footy breaks my browserBig Footy has it nice too, but just not quite as nice as us.
I literally spent almost ten days fine-tuning image performance on this site almost three years ago.
I'm still not 100% happy with it, improvements are coming with XF 2.0

Big footy breaks my browser
all those banner adds scrolling etc
And random phone calls from drunk people while overseas trying to sleep ... just sayin ...Not you that's for sure. I don't know the backstory of that particular incident..
the thing you will find with this forum. Is that many hundreds of people know each other and meet up in the real world for skiing, cycling, bushwalking and sometimes.... drinking.
so there's an outrageous amount of history. It's why this is *the best* community.
You keep mentioning it because you love it, bad you secretly want it to keep continuing.And random phone calls from drunk people while overseas trying to sleep ... just sayin ...
Welcome! @DuckweatherHello folks and thankyou to Richard and all for welcoming us from Weatherzone.
I am migrating here, along with other WZ'ers due to forum closures. I am not a skier, so haven't joined this forum in the past due to such. I am Duckweather, the earthquake 'nerd' from WZ. We had/have a wonderful following - 3.28 million views over on WZ in the General Science/Earthquake forum and it is a shame that it is to come to an end. But, Richard here, has kindly suggested we could start a dedicated earthquake forum here [on ski] to share our interests in EQ's [which can include tsunami and volcanic events by degrees as they may relate sometimes to EQ's].
I am an amateur observer [pre- and post] earthquake events, and have always been interested in such since knee high to a grasshopper. My posts are non scientific - as I am no scientist - and my observations tend to rely on my observations [and intuition] of our planet's behaviours pre- and post quakes etc..
Anyway, I don't want to bore you all silly with me rambling on here. I hope to post something/s interesting soon.
Cheers, Duckweather.
@Sandy usually keeps us up to date on quakes in Japan so you won't be aloneHello folks and thankyou to Richard and all for welcoming us from Weatherzone.

Wow and thankyou for your very kind words StormyLee. Much appreciatedYay! Thanks for coming across Duck - I read your posts all the time, so glad you've migrated with the rest of us ex WZ kidslook forward to continuing to read your very interesting posts.
Did the ground move for you too?
fortunately that is unlikely to coincide with the huge influx when the first big snowfall of the year happensHello from a soon to be ex-Weatherzone moderator. Have been with Weatherzone for the last 17 years, the last 13 years as a moderator.
Very, very sad that the forums are going quietly into the night...there is an ongoing discussion on Weatherzone to try and preserve the huge amount of weather history.
Ski.com forums seem to be highly regarded, and somewhat advanced technically compared to the WZ forums. The community here appears to be warm and inviting, so I'm happy to make this my new home.
I live in the tropics, and if past experience on WZ is any indication - be prepared for a HUGE influx of visitors whenever a tropical cyclone threatens populated areas.

'gawd' .. reading in this forum is sooo' much better than watching TV.
I used to be at WZ and had many years of free education and entertainment.
I believe the lack of income input into WZ forum is just another factor in its demise.
I notice you get revenue from adds and subscriptions #richard .
I like the adds' ,.... some food buys there.......so don't want to pay to have them removed.
Subscriptions are all ad' related?
I would like to donate and pay my way to help with running costs. I don't believe free is a good thing for the longevity of a forum. Sometimes staff may have to be paid.
I noticed K2storms , USA forum as. paypal donations link. Do you take donations or what is the appropriate method to help with finances.
I prefer Mastercard payment and a system like world vision uses

Gday @crikey. Just so you're aware, you use the @ symbol to tag someone on these forums instead of the # symbolThanks #richard l get the 'gist'
A maximum contribution of $33 a year is very reasonable with a bit of time to save
This thread is a bit of a' help desk' isn't it. Great service .
Much better than those Telstra overseas assistance phone calls..gees!

It’s not like we take ANYONE... or that we have an exclusive obsession with snow....Hello, I'm not actually from weather zone but from another forum. Just wanted to check it out.
Are you sure? I have a suspicion that Weatherzone is only the start of Richard's Empire Building. There are lots of other active Australian chat forums like Whirlpool, BigFooty, Railpage, Ausfish, ones for gardening, cars, sports, gamers, etc. that could be taken over and incorporated into this site.It’s not like we take ANYONE... or that we have an exclusive obsession with snow....
I'll be tracked!Railpage...go on you know you want to.
