The limit can be lifted by upgrading to Premier Membership at any time. When a free account holder reaches their daily limit, they are prompted to upgrade via a button on the upload form. This takes them to paypal, where as soon as they pay, the limit is instantly lifted allowing them to continue uploading to the site. Many thanks to all our members for their much valued feedback and suggestions. It's greatly appreciated. Chris & Sarah My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

Just in case these people do have the concsience to pay up and start mega uploads again.... My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

I really don't like getting stuck on page after page by the same person, Premier member or not. Edited by: rustyruth at:23rd January 2014 13:09 My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

Dave John Posts: 22335 Joined: 27th Feb 2011 Location: England	Posted at 19:41 on 23rd January 2014 I think the majority of the more regular Premier members only upload 5 or 6 at a time anyway which is why I thought 10 as a maximum. Following other threads during last year don't forget we started to 'self regulate' on our own initiative and thats eemed to work very well for most My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

See my thread 'On 26 June 2012' to understand. She couldn't have picked on anybody better could she? My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions
Vince Hawthorn Posts: 12758 Joined: 19th Apr 2010 Location: UK	Posted at 22:57 on 23rd January 2014 I also totally agree with the decision and as a Premier member I still only ever upload max 5 and there are many days without any so the 10 for Premier members is quite adequate as well. After a trip away and a bulging sd card may there may be a temptation to do more but hang back and spread them out, everyone benifits . My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

The longer you take to share your images the longer the enjoyment and anticipation for others plus you yourself get more time to look back on pleasant memories, even if as in my case it is usually wet My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions
