[opensuse-support] hostname

It is frowned upon, and there is a 100KB limit on the list. Not everybody has free internet⁽¹⁾, and the file could be sent to thousands of people (I don't know the actual number of subscribers).

Hi Doug, When you create a post on paste.opensuse.org or susepaste.org for posting an image you should click on the choice for pasting an image. It's up in the right corner. It says "Image Code". Choose "Image". Then click the button where you choose file and navigate to the file you want to upload. regards, -- /bengan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner@opensuse.org
