Yeah for TapaTalk!

[airbur]

Nice work Dan:)

[airbur]

Very cool. Thanks guys:)

[airbur]

Looks like a few issues to work through....pics aren't loading.

[airbur]

I've got the current version. I uninstalled and re-installed but still no luck. I'll keep playing with it.

[ClayJ]

It's possibly our old version of PHPbb. We are 2 revs behind. Dan you ok if I update us if that's the problem?

[ClayJ]

Testing tapatalk image upload

[airbur]

Still no luck:(

[Rox Crusher]

[ClayJ]

Nope. Still working on it with the engineer via their support forums.

I tested on ccb.com and the pics are working fine. Not sure what's up.

I assume you mean classicbroncos.com, not China Construction Bank (ccb.com). :)

cb.com is running completely different forum software, vbulletin, where we are using phpbb.

According to the engineer

It was a known app side problem and already been fixed. The fix should be included in next app release.

I hope that means that it will be fixed shortly.

[airbur]

Yea......meant cb.com:)

So, I am accessing this thread using my new iPad and tapatalk

What are the benefits ?

[airbur]

Not so much on iPads....from iPhones..it's better due to the small screen...and you can also upload pics directly from the phone.

[Rox Crusher]

Can you load pics from iPad via tapalk ?

[airbur]

Yep:)

[airbur]

Just fyi....yesterday when I uploaded a pick via TapaTalk, it gave me the option for tiny....or full size. I don't think we want the full-size option available.

[airbur]

So you are removing the ability to post even 1 pic?

[Rox Crusher]

Just fyi....yesterday when I uploaded a pick via TapaTalk, it gave me the option for tiny....or full size. I don't think we want the full-size option available.

It should automatically re-size it for the Site.
But as stated before we will be removing the attachment availability so that Members start using their own hosting site like Photobucket etc.

is there some other benefit to enabling tapatalk other than the ability to directly post pics ?

if not, then it seems disabling the ability to post pics altogether defeats the purpose

how much would it cost us to keep pic posting privileges ? I assume the site provider charges us based on storage used, etc. I would be willing to contribute

Tapatalk for the ipad is nice but not that much of an advantage.

Tapatalk for the iphone or android phone is a huge advantage. Most forums, including this one, have allot of blank space around and between the messages. That's all wasted space on a tiny screen. In addition, downloading all the extra formatting code, icons, and pictures is very slow when you're using cellular data connection. Having an app that downloads only the contents of messages, without the formatting code really helps.

I can actually browse the forums faster and easier on my phone than I can on my computer. But it's easier to type long replies like this one on a computer with a keyboards.

[Rox Crusher]

I got a wireless keyboard / carrying case with my iPad for doing long emails, etc.

Still trying to get used to it, but I digress.

[ClayJ]

Tapatalk seems to have released a new version that fixes the embedded photo issue

[Booger]

Rox I use my iPad on here all the time and don't use Tapatalk. Because of the size of the screen it works fine for most internet sites.

[casadejohnson]

I noticed that when TapaTalk released the new version, it dumped all of my forums and login information except for classic broncos .com . Not a big deal, just had to go and search for the forums and the reenter my account info.

[akaFrankCastle]

Okay. I'm sold on Tapatalk!

[Kinder]

No kidding, it's super fast on a phone.

[Jesus_man]

I guess I better jump on the bandwagon, but 95% of the time, I am near a computer...
