	I have noticed that the version 7,6 makes af new folder with the name of the user, when they are oploading images to the forum. Why this way??? If you have many useres (like us) you get more than 3000 new folders! Do you thinks this is good? By the way, when users or admin delete the images, they still stay in the folder... Some how I do not like this idea! Regards Edited by klr3

	If they would all go into the same folder you would have close to no way of telling who posted that image. This way, if you delete or suspend a user you can just delete his folder to conserve space.

	I�m not sure but in the version 7,0 final, the images are stored in the folder "uploads", and no problems in doing that! I don�t see any reason in making a new folder for each member who uploads images. If only -Borg- had made the forum delete the images when admin or user wan�t to delete them... It seems a little "old-fashion"! Edited by klr3
