Title: Cant upload pics! Mod's can u help?
Post by: vonkamp on May 12, 2008, 07:14:08 PM

I sure would like to post up some pics but every time it says "upload of file failed". Now I am trying to upload a pic that is 249kb in size & it's a jpeg. I have tried on different computers as well. This is not new to me, in fact I successfully posted the pic on another forum a few minutes ago. So I'm pretty sure it aint me... :cool:

http://www.photobucket.com

Open an account there. Then, upload any pictures you want. Copy and paste the (http://) code which Photobucket gives you into the post you want to submit.
Much better than 'attached' images in my opinion :)

Yea, the problem with image hosting sites though is that my work has blocked them all so most pic's posted here I can't see.
There has got to be a reason why I can't post pic's from any of my computers... :confused:

Lol, what work is that then?! Use a different username ;)
Try resizing the pictures then re-uploading them. It should auto-reize them for you but perhaps if the upload takes too long then you have pics which are too big for the transfer - and it then times out.

Other than that, theres not much to sugggest before going into in/out IP ports etc which is a hassle. An image hosting account will solve your problems though :)
