Hi,

Got an pair of A8 headphones with the purchase of a BS8

This was the Christmas offer but I was late Big Smile

I have made some pictures while unpacking.

edit: why do the pictures only show half? Would it be possible to have these re-sized to a format that fits the forum?

Ah nice multiple pics on a first post. I still don't know how to do it.

If you think nobody cares, try missing a couple of payments.

Double edged sword... you CANNOT directly open those in a new tab, so the only way to see the part that doesn't fit in the post is to open them one by one and then return to the post to open the next!

(on Firefox, anyway).

The way to use multiple pics is to add them to your media library and then use the "insert media" function while composing the post. Works in the old forum as well. Or, to host them completely somewhere else, which I find clumsy as well...

And this is not a Q post.

Very nice. This is an example of one thing that has annoyed me with the old forums though - because the threads are so narrow you have to scroll pictures which often puts me off. I wonder if there is a way to address this? Some forums use a java pop-up that allows you to scroll through all pictures in that post / group then close when finished is this possible here I wonder?

Sorry to hijack your post Ferdinand!

Oh, you learn something new everyday. Not that I have enough different cat-on-glass-table pics to add but it's good to know [][]

Stonk, not sure if I understand your question correct but by copy pasting the IMG tags per picture you can add multiple pictures to one post. I first put the pictures on photobucket as this (for me) works easiest although it is a bit of a workaround.

Will try the new media functions next week or so.

Step1 .. actually the same 'problem' as with the old forum exists. In my post only 2/3 of the picture is shown. Luckily most of the detail(s) seems to be on that part so you don't mis out on that much.

All, does the below mean that the extension cable is included? It is not in on my A8's

The Earphones come with their own specially designed leather carrying case, and a two-metre extension is also available for use with stationary equipment.

Opera have a  "Fit to window width" feature that scales the pictures so that you see the whole thing inside the post. Odd that Firefox doesn't have something similar... Guess you need to change browser!

Since they are not hosted by this server, they can't be clicked. But rich-click on them you get the option to show in new window/tab.

 

But I think this is something that should be adjusted in the forum software, as I don't know of any other forums than Beoworld, where the forum itself doesn't adjust it's page width to the pictures posted.

Too long to list....

I have changed the topic category from 'discussion' into 'question' as there are two questions in this topic

1. Should A8 headphones come with an extension cord or have I misread / understood the information available on this site about the A8's

2. Will this forum software update include an 'automated resize picture' possibility? Or will the posters need to to that individually?
