Currently, I think CP does not support this. There was a discussion on this and some members felt that there might be abuse of this image upload feature.

I think, Chris has agreed to your email attachment however, you would observed that people sometimes upload screenshots to their websites or other file/image hosting websites like XDrive, ImageCabin, PhotoBucket etc.

Great feeling? When such thing happens to me and if someone else is there I run command line and type one or two unrelated commands (like ipconfig or systeminfo) just to leave them with impression that I REALLY did something to fix the problem

Not so great feeling? 
Mostly, when you see programmers, they aren't doing anything. One of the attractive things about programmers is that you cannot tell whether or not they are working simply by looking at them. Very often they're sitting there seemingly drinking coffee and gossiping, or just staring into space. What the programmer is trying to do is get a handle on all the individual and unrelated ideas that are scampering around in his head. (Charles M Strauss)

(bad when using Firefox 3 beta 2, looks ok with IE 7 )
When I look at this page : http://www.codeproject.com/KB/miscctrl/[^], I see a messed up version of the page, the BG is black and the page is a gazillion pixel wide.

The page is too much heavy like about 1.5 mega bytes. The need of the hour may be paginating this display.

I just noticed that the Menu Item caption Message Boards (the green tab) is linked to /Script/forums/list.aspx. When you scroll down the menu, the menu item (All Message Boards ...) is linked to /script/forums/view.aspx)
Both these links actually serve the same purpose -- Index all the message boards and display in one shot.
I would say /View.aspx can not be an independant page since it displays everything squeezed up. You can have it as an IFRAME on top of all forum pages to facilitate cross-forum navigation anytime anywhere.
As for the two links (Message Boards and All MessageBoards), I would suggest both are hyperlinked to 'List.aspx' since it has elegant and beautiful alignment, cleaner description of each forum).

We have new forums in the website, which makes the ecosystem more vibrant.
I just thought how about consider having the forum for Java (which still supports Web Development in a nicer way through its Java Applets). I think we have a hidden forum for Java, whose hidden attribute needs to be unchecked and brought to the stage.
Also, how about considering a forum on Server API (to encompass ISAPI, Perl/CGI, PHP), just in one-shot? A few are non-Microsoft technologies, I admit. But going by some of the business requirements that we come across in tech forums, wouldn't this be a great help for dev fraternity. Even the logo of CodeProject says 'Your development resource'.
Any thoughts?

We've had a few reports and honestly we're not sure what approach to take since they seem fairly unresponsive. We're asking our ISP to look into it in case they have some suggestions.

No - they are from people downstream who go through Tiscali. Even worse

I've noticed when the univoting spree happens that new posts are voted down to 1 within what appears to be only a few seconds after posting.
It almost appears that someone is either scraping the lounge or using rss then automatically voting 1 on the new message through code of some kind.

I agree. It happened to me the other night with a message I posted that really didn't warrant a 1 vote. In my opinion, just giving someone a "Good point" post about a good point they make, isn't a bad post...

I just noticed that the links to other articles in this page http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cs/Log4NetWebServiceAppender.aspx[^] and probably others are getting redirected to the not found page becuase the new articles are aspX and not asp. When clicking on links it may be good to append an x if the page is not found, or write a script to go through the articles and update the links.
just a suggestion.
Thanks!

Adding an "x" isn't sufficient. We have a system in place that redirects the visitor to the new location. Can you send me the original .asp link that isn't working? If it's not mapped correctly then I can add it to our redirect mapping table
