Uploading Files
Chris, I want to upload some Brew Hut autocad files, but uploading to the wiki seems to be disabled. Help!

There is a security vulnerability in the upload handling of the mediawiki version we are using. In fact, this got exploited by a script-kiddy back in December. Therefore I've disabled uploads until I get around to upgrading the wiki software. I guess I should get on that...
I'm not sure if we want to upload files other than images (viewable in a web browser : png,jpg,gif). I can certainly see the usefulness of the autocad files, but where do we draw the line? People may start upload some MS-Office files, full of virii and so on... Therefore, it may be best to not place the autocad files here. If you like I can place them in the "Misc Docs" portion of the static webpage. Just send them to me.

Uploading images should now work again, since we've updated the Wiki software. Also note that you can do all sorts of fancy things with images. For example, you can place a thumbnail in the page with a subtitle that links to the full image. You don't need to generate the thumbnail yourself. It all happens automagically. For an example, have a look at New Brew Trail. As always, have a look at Wikipedia for other advanced formating tricks (they run the same software we do).
