Need Help With Uploading Pictures

[Beachbumz327]

I am a new member to the forums and have tried to upload my pictures of some builds that I have done. I was able to do so, but, only so many pictures then it said I had no space left to load any more. My question is, Is this something that is regular for new members or is something that I am doing wrong? My pictures are formatted to be 800 x 600 pixels. The answer I am looking for may be in the forums somewhere and I haven't found it yet. I went to my manage attachments and it deletes all of my photos from my topics when I delete them from the profile, so I am lost. Any info?

another option is to get a image hosting account some are free, some cost money but are still cheap.

the free ones are:

www.imageshack.us allow pictures, animated gifs, and up to 1.5 meg per image, and will give you links to make big pictures appear small in the forum, we would click on it to see the full size version.

www.imagevenue.com same features as imageshack and it gives you the option to upload more than 1 picture at a time.

ones that cost money:

www.photobucket.com basically free, but has limited bandwidth, can post MUCH larger than 1.5 meg pictures and gifs. the unlimited version is 20 bucks a year which is worth it.

www.fotki.com/us also like photobucket gives you more options, not sure what the costs are over the free.

I use imageshack and photobucket the most. another good free option is www.tinypic.com i hope this helps .

That's not my problem, Dave. I can upload pictures just fine and I have imaging software on my pc to convert picture sizes,etc. My porlbme is that I have uploaded maybe 8 pictures total and it says that 1.92mb of the 1.95mb are taken up already. So, i go to " manage my attachments " to delete the pictures I have uploaded in order to make room for more and it deletes them from the forums all together. So how do I keep my current picturs and upload more for different posts?

THAT is the reason why i don't use the attachment feature. i prefer hosting my pics one of the sites that way they are always online an i can easily copy/paste the link to any individual pictures to show to friends or on different forums as well.
