include a file in a pm

Attached files to posts I believe are mod/super/admin only (I believe)... :)

 

I don't think anyone can attach files to a PM. At least I can only do it to a post in one of the forums, not when sending a PM. :)

 

@JediRevan: If you can't send the file via email you can upload it to some file hosting service like http://www.FileFront.com and send the link to it instead.

Tangent:

 

Though can't attach a file per se, you could kick it old school and embed a file in a PM with uuencode. Large files might need a few PMs.

"You are a huge nerd! :D" --Prime

 

"And tk102 has just scored Uber-Supreme Geek on the Geek test with that one." --Jae Onasi

 

"Star Wars: Nerd of the forums" --Darth333

 

I'd love to be able to join the chorus, but that would probably be a bit hypocritical. iconignoretw9.gif

 

Sending binhexed/uuencoded/base64-encoded files via PM is probably no hit though, the length limit of PMs would likely require hundreds of PMs to send most mod files, and Lucasforums isn't really intended to be a file hosting service. :)

 

Easier to just upload it somewhere and privately send the link to those who need it. If you don't provide the link publically it would probably count as private sharing among a closed group and not as redistribution. :)

Is a bit too complicated for me, although that might be due to the fact that I didn't click that link :xp:

Quick & Dirty (easy) way to decode:

 

copy and paste the snippets in a .txt file, HOWEVER.. change or 'save' the extension to .uue

 

eg. filename.uue

 

Then double-click it.. WinRar, WinZip, etc. will "decode" it for you and place a readable version for you on the desktop :D

Nope it ain't registering in my head, lol.

 

No I get it what you said but all I get is a damaged non extractable thingy, lol, I'm useless with this stuff :lol:
