I have uploaded a fair few attachments over the time, problem is if i want to use the same file again in a different thread i have to upload it again, i can go into "manage your attachments" but the only thing i can do is delete them, surely this is wasting a bit of server space and bandwidth.

if its not a pic, then you should be able to copy the link in the original post and then paste it in the new post.

if it is a pic, then I have a trick I use where you copy the URL of the thumbnail for the attachment, then paste that URL in the new post. Then you remove the "_thumb" part in the URL before you post. This puts the full image in the post, saves you having to reupload.

The point was to make it easier to re use an already uploaded file since there is already the attachment drop down bar there, if i have to go to all that trouble to find the thread i posted it in and copy and paste and remove things i may as well upload it again, mentioned it more for the server bandwidth, i dont mind upping the file again but if a had 100's possibly 1000's doing the same thing i would not be happy.

Might make it easier to find and reuse your attachments.

It is a bit inefficient, but meh... the bandwith usage really has never been an issue. As the forums grow more and more I can see how it'd start becoming an issue tho.

    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
