Default On-Line Security

Can anyone help with some On-Line Security info? I'm still not really sure about posting things on this website. Can anyone give me some info on how to keep my personal info private?

Hi In-toker,

Welcome to GreenPassion! Glad to have you in the GP Clan!

As for you info, I looked over your public profile and saw nothing for you to be concerned about. GP has some very secure servers, so keep your personal ID info to yourself and yer good to go!

Hey Intoker,

If want to be able to post pics in your posts, go to PhotoBucket dot com and make a free account.

Mark it as "Private only", and you can host all your grow pics there...safely.
You can also post very large pics using that method.

The safest place for you to host your pics is right here on the site, in fact, if you post them at photobucket many folks usually don't go looking for them. It takes 3 times as long for it to open up, if it opens at all, when I try to open them.

While this may sound like great advice, I have to speak out against it.
Doing this leaves a larger trail to follow, and you end up hosting your pictures on a server that is not secure nor is it designed to be.

When you post here, using sites such as photobucket to host your pictures, the two sites have to have a "handshake" leaving a larger trail...unsafe practice. The handshake may be tracked.

If you host your pictures here, on our secure server, I can guarantee your safety here....completely. There is no handshake involved than.

Not to add insult to injury but pictures hosted elsewhere, will NOT behave as pictures hosted here will, we have many improvements here on how our pics are handled, but they only work for pictures that we host. You will NOT be able to post larger pictures at all, what will happen is the thumbnail will appear, and when clicked, nothing will happen. It will not enlarge at all.
Peace

When you are in the POST or REPLY screens, you can see the small toolbar across the top of the message window. Click on the "paperclip" thingy and it will give you the loading screen, along with max sizes for images.

.JPG is allowed up to 1.91 Meg. Big enough?.

I am on other MJ sites and I would always choose to post on the site rather then pull in from something like photobucket. I trust that the people running the certain sites are more aware of security measures directly related to the pictures you want to post where as PB just wants people to use their site. they have no direct care for MJ growers like a site like this does.
Posting on the site gets my vote I guess is what I am trying to get out lol
