    Just an FYI guys and gals. When you embed that many photos into posts, MCM has to pay for the bandwidth to serve them all. Hosting them on an external image hosting service lets you show much larger images and also reduced the bandwidth hosting costs of MCM.

    Not a complaint, just a heads up.

    Cheers!
    Taking and sharing the photos - no worries. My only regret is my new Fujifilm camera hadn't arrived in time for my trip to Chongqing (the camera was a replacement for a Fuji Finepix I dropped on a recent trip to TaoHua Dao (island) while taking photos while standing by my bike on the day. I had to make do with my Samsung Galaxy Note 3's camera.

    I appreciate being able to upload and share photos easily. It is one of the aspects I like about MCM compared to some of the other dozen+ MC forums I'm a member of - that being the ability to upload photos directly.

    I'm not a big fan of having to host photos elsewhere and then link them in, despite me having a (free) photo hosting account. The reason is, as photos are uploaded onto the free photo hosting site, links to previously shared photos drop out and become invalid. It's the reason I don't share many photos on the other forums that require photos to be hosted elsewhere.

    If you'd prefer ChinaV, I can delete some photos -if that might make it easier?

    Otherwise, maybe it is worth MCM considering a "donate" button/link such as can be found on a couple of other MC forums et al. websites to help with 'costs'?

    Footnote: if any MCM member wants to donate towards the cost of my plane ticket (1200), airport parking (200) etc. then I have a Paypal account - LOL


    Joke!
