General discussion

I wanted to change the maximum dimension for avatars to be 40x40px, so I opened the user.module and replaced all instances of 85x85, which is the default to 40x40. :o Forgive me I'm a designer. :) I don't know if that's the way or not, but now the user/ account settings/ upload picture description still says 85x85. What else do I have to change? Thanks a lot!

Would like to know people's opinions and personal experiences.

So, who has got the lowest hardware running a "production" drupal site?

Thats what I thought now my old reliable pentium 166 with 160 MB mem will be replaced by a "newer" old machine. With more than 6000 nodes on a drupal 4.5.1 site, 150+ users and more than 100k hits per day (about 4k pageviews) and lots of other processes (iptables, DHCP, mail, DNS etc) I think this machine will rank rather high.

What kind of hardware are you running for our production site? And can you "beat" my old server?

Hi,

two days ago i've recreated my website from scratch using drupal and was amazed how well and easy the template system works.

but i have a problem, i`d like to post code, either in <code> or <pre> tags, but both have a problem:

<code> screw's up formating (html ignores leading spaces).
soltion: a module that does a preg replace that converts leading spaces to nbsp;s
but i'm not that familiar with preg replaces and especially how to write a new module that does this.

Is there a way to grant access to certain areas of a forum for certain group of people and not to others. For example if I want a VIP forum, how would I go about it? Thanks a million!

Ok, here's the deal. My site is running Mambo and I'm thinking I'm reaching my limit of options. The site is http://www.helloghost.com. I just had a second content writer start 'blogging', and I have another coming up whenever I can make room. Is Drupal designed with multiple users in mind? Is it *somewhat* easy to customize to my liking? Can I control whether or not users have different rights regarding content publishing? I think that's all the questions I have about Drupal.
