Site Update February 2020 - What has changed

[V4vendetta]

Hey guys sorry to bother y’all as I am sure its been posted somewhere. What’s the new file size limit for photos?

High resolution images on Overgrow

Site Update Uploads are now accepted up to 13 Megapixels or 10 Megabytes. With last update there is now server-side compression that allows larger images to upload so you don’t need to compress the file on your side. There is no 3MB limit anymore. You can now upload photos up to 13 Megapixels and they will be resized on the server. BUT it is still recommended that you compress the file yourself as a part of photo editing work if you have the skills because you’ll get better results and faster…

Thanks Joe. Appreciate everything you guys do… Have a good day man.

I always compress my pics to their minimum, usually around 750kb to 1mb range as well as tweak the light and contrast as my camera is crap lol.

Was wondering if it is possible to make ‘post’ dates stay longer …when counting weeks to see how long a plant flowered from posts I see that the date expires. If it is not a lot of trouble I would ask if we can make this date stay longer?

Is a ‘days since post’ flag/feature useful enough to implement?
Edit: posted here since this might have been changed

Date expires but days are on the upper right hand side, count them down.
Will get you in the ballpark anyway.

Do you mean time stamp in top right corner of each post?

There are two modes: time since posted and for old posts it changes to actual date.

[Herbie]

right it shows …err nevermind…when I click on date it shows dialog box with the info I wanted …likely issue was pbkbac

@LemonadeJoe Does overgrow get revenue for every click of the adds that are floating around?

[LemonadeJoe]

I’m currently experimenting with partnered sites to monetize some ad space using various models (CPM, CPC and CPA).

[Grease_Monkey]

So does the site get paid if I click on every add lol. Cause I’ll click em all if so

[LemonadeJoe]

Haha Thanks for help, but no, it doesn’t work that way (it may actually trigger the opposite - marking your clicks as fraud ) …

Please only click if your interest in the product or service is genuine

New design called “User card directory” has been applied to user list.

Hi @Larry3215, sorry to hear that… I’ll definitely get maximum zoom working, just bear with me, there are still tasks I need to do to finish this update.

Hi Joe. Any up-date on this?
