Trans Am Erik Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I have a thread in "slot cars" on my 40 Ford flip nose rod. For some reason I can not upload new pictures. I have tried from my laptop and my phone, and I have tried the new and old uploaders. It says that my files are too large but they are from the same photo folder on the laptop, and the same gallery folder on my phone that I have already posted pictures from. Something has changed and it isn't me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalhead Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 It seems like you're not the only one that's having this problem. I've noticed several others that can't upload pics including me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I have a thread in "slot cars" on my 40 Ford flip nose rod. For some reason I can not upload new pictures. I think you have used up all of your alloted free storage space here on the forum. Each member is allowed a certain amount of space, and once you reach or get very close to the limit, you cannot add more images via the attachment feature: You have 28 images in your '40 Ford topic, and I didn't see if you have more images in other posts, but that would be my guess as to why you can't upload more. If true, consider a free image hosting service/account such as Photobucket.com *I just did a test in the Model Car Racing section, and I was able upload an image via the attchment feature without any issues.* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalhead Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I guess it's just with certain people, but I can't upload directly or through Photobucket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Geiger Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 This site does weird things on Internet Explorer, I found I'm much better on Google Chrome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I guess it's just with certain people, but I can't upload directly or through Photobucket. Are you running Internet Explorer as your web browser? If so, see the link I posted. That will most likely solve the uploading issues here. If you have and are using a Photobucket account to host (store) your images online, you do not upload them like you would with an attached image from your hard drive. You copy the image links from your PB album, then paste them in the body of your message here on the forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete J. Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Casey could you give us a link to the post? I can't find anything that explains the issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trans Am Erik Posted January 24, 2015 Author Share Posted January 24, 2015 Thanks for the help guys. I do use the ol rusty Explorer and I do post a lot when I am working on a project. I do have a Photobucket that I quit using when I had problems uploading photos to this site. I used to be able to copy and paste the image code into the reply to see the pic. If it won't cost me anything I will try to get Chrome if that will fix my problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalhead Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 I finally got it all sorted out last night. Thanks for the advice. I'm going to post some of my works in progress when I get the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Casey could you give us a link to the post? I can't find anything that explains the issue. It's the top-most, and only pinned post in the Off Topic section, and the first post on page three explains the #1 most common issue- running IE: http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=81824&page=3 I finally got it all sorted out last night. What was the problem, or alternatively, did clicking Compatibility View solve your issues? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
