Sorry, but pictures of screens are 95% of the time worthless. Effective now, posts with pictures of screens will be locked and/or deleted.

Scopes usually have memory cards or can be to be hooked to a computer, so in the future please do it the right way so we don't waste time.

Agree 100% with the new requirement - photos of scope screens have been a long time troubling issue in our attempts to support members, often newer members.

That said - what is the CCF doing to re-direct newer folks who attempt such a display?

Simply locking the thread IMO will discourage members from participating in CCF activities.

Perhaps Bobby and the admin team can come up with a guidance message that is posted after a scope screen shot - similar in nature to the 'we need photos so this thread is locked until you have them' message in common use today.

I suppose you have already figured that out.

John, I posted my personal recommendation on the suggestions forum. The reminder about "no photos of screens" should be placed directly in the image upload tool. Then there is no question that people will see it.

As a tangent to this, what about people (especially non-supporters) who post 8 or 10 images of the same coin, where 3 would allow for comment and requests for further images?
