I'm currently looking in to a problem where some users are having problems posting pictures. If you are one of those members, could you please let me know in this thread as well as any error message you receive when trying to upload (I guess the image uploads are as thread attachments?).

I'll do my best to get this sorted ASAP :).

Sorry that's the only way I know to copy and paste it. That picture was taken along with about 6 other pics at the same time. It will not load and it shows that, Upload to flie error each time I try.

Do you know what filesize the image was? I'll test a similar sized image and see if there's a problem with large files :D.

I got your e-mail with the attachment and it was too big for me to upload too... however I've found an easy way to re-size them :D

If an image filesize is too large, go to : http://www.picresize.com/

Then select a custom width of around 800 pixels, that should shrink it by enough to be uploaded :lol:.

Once you have them resized how do you get them back on your computer or post them?

Here's what I did with one of the images you e-mailed:
  • Clicked browse and uploaded the file to http://www.picresize.com/
  • Wait a min for file to upload
  • Clicked "Fit to screen: 800 Resolution"
  • Clicked "I'm done, Resize my picture"
  • Clicked "Save to Disk"
  • Selected to save to desktop
After that, I uploaded the file as normal :D

Here's the attachment resized:

Ian,

I am also having trouble posting pics. I have posted before but suddenly can no longer get them to load. The size of the pic I loaded before was 1728 X 2304.

Here is the error message:

Upload Errors

Upload of file failed.

Here is the info from the photo:

When I post pics I just resize them right from the pic file.

Right click on the pic your want.
Left click on resize picture.
Left click Advanced.
Adjust to custom size of 650 x350.
Left click ok.
Select resized pic.
Attach file.

Good to go.

Here is the final size.

Your dimensions size is 3264 x 2448 need to resize to 800 resolution. Same problem I was having.

If people would take the time to read, on the same page you upload from:
bmp 146.5 KB - -
doc 146.5 KB - -
gif 146.5 KB - -
jpeg 146.5 KB - -
jpg 146.5 KB - -
pdf 244.1 KB - -
png 146.5 KB - -
txt 244.1 KB - -
zip 244.1 KB - -

These are the limits.
