Can't add photos?
Can't add photos?
Is it just me or have we reached the attachment limit on the Forum? Don't seem to be able to add pics anymore. Anyone else had the same problem??

You don't attach them, you host them elsewhere (photobucket) and copy the img links,

Well, obviously you can. Maybe it's me they don't like.
If I try and add a pic of about 80kB size I get his message:
Error
Sorry, the board attachment quota has been reached.
I wonder if the Board Administrator can explain.

good luck with that.
Do you not just add hosted (photobucket) images between the /img code?

Me too, I have tried posting a public flickr link between the Img-Img tags from along the top menu, it doesn't work.
Seems like some people can post images and some others cannot, ideas?
I am sure there are lots of people wanting to post POL images

Re: Can't add photos?
Yes the attaching of pictures has never worked well on the forum. I upload my pics to Flick and then paste the image URL into here using the IMG button on the toolbar :-)g259fsg wrote:So we can't do in-line photos in postings anymore? Was able to last month.

Re: Can't add photos?
I'm no techie but I understand it is to do with bandwidth. Pictures are too data heavy to attach to the forum therefore they have to be hosted remotely. I have always used Photobucket and that seems to work fine. I'm not aware that you have ever been able to attach directly.
