DIYC File Library

**Macrosill** · 02-01-2009, 12:14 AM

The DIYC File Library is now active. We now have a centralized place to upload, store and share files related to this hobby!

There is a link to the File Library from the home page and the forum index page. There are links back and forth from the library page as well.

As usual if anyone has any issues let me know.

I have added a couple of categories to start. Let me know what you feel we should add to the short list.

Looks great!

How about PCB files and Drawings (like for wire frames and such) to the list.

once i get there, it's difficult to nav back to the forum or home page...

Oooops, can't upload vix or pro files.

However, brilliant idea! Nice work Brian, will make life a bit easier.

How is it supposed to work? Is there a way to add descriptions or tags to the files?

Just zip it. 1st one's are loaded. FYI - there is a 1 MB restriction.

Ahh yes, File extensions need to be added to the list. It was 2330 when I started this. I will add them.

Ahh yes, file size limits. I will increase them. 2mb sound good?

Good Idea. I was tired and had a mental block.

There is a link in the blue navbar up top for the Home page. There is a link in the bottom navbar for the Home page and Forum Index. Can you be more specific as to what link you would like and where?

I do not know yet. I believe you can add tags and descriptions.

I agree.

File extensions and 1mb limits have been added to mirror the current settings in the forums. If anyone needs more than that let me know.

Hehehehe the best things/thoughts (and worst maybe ;) ) always happen in the wee hours!

It looks like it's pretty much the same as making a post in the forum, except it needs you to attach a file - won't let you post until you do.

Another tool in the belt, thanks again Brian.
