If you send a PM, & then delete it prior to the recipient opening it, does it delete it from just the sender’s computer, or will it no longer show up on the recipients computer?

No, the recipient will still get the message.

It just deletes the message off your own sent items only.

So now do you want to apologise for that abusive PM that you sent me. LMAO

Nope ................... but I would if I had. :)

Unfortunately someone will now have to make sense of 3 different PM’s, sent containing photos hosted on a public photo hosting site ........ removed from the site after I realised that they may make me vulnerable to identity theft. Recipient will now have messages with ‘pic no longer available’ on them, as well as the final corrected copy. Bugger!

Andy, is there any way to make it possible to attach photos/files to PM’s in the same way as can be done with forum posts?

Some times it would be handy to PM a Pic to a Mate about something that is specific to you both.
No R Rated ones though LMAO

Theres no set function for this in the software due to security reasons so I'll have to create some kind of mod.

Not as easy as I thought...lol.....Leave it with me.

I'll also need to have it restricted to sponsors so members dont get sent spam and possible virus's, etc.

Well the entire forum nearly crashed so I am very reluctant to do this gents until I can find something more stable.

There are a lot of reported problems with other people trying to install it and they had to restart their forum from a back up.

I'll see if there is another way but this way is way too scary...lol

Just get the direct link from the hosting website, and paste it in between img tags.

I think the senior members want to share "personal" photos from their "secret" collection.

That’s what I want to avoid. I wanted to post a member some pics of documents which an identity thief would have had a field day with. Would have been far simpler just to attach them to the PM rather than risk them on a public hosting site.

here's an idea and not really sure why no one else has thought of it, seeing as it was simple enough for me to think of........ how about sharing your email addresses with each other, then you can send as many dodgy photos/documents etc as you like?????!!!!!!!!!................. Simples

Wouldn't a good old fashion email simply suffice??
