Re: ReactOS in the wild

Just so you know that the change to the underlying method of hosting images does have an overhead on the poor user who has to do the uploading. What about an automatic conversion with user warning when the user uploads an image that is larger than the limit? (like: "Warning! Your image is too ...

Re: Why does the installation ends up as Administrator?

That's because it is expected to write Windows drivers in C (or C++ with limitations) and not in any other language framework.
