The Site won't let me upload photos.

I have uploaded photos before, my albums are not full.

The site won't let me upload photos. Just says "upload failed", anyone else ?

Worked just fine for me. Guessing your picture size might be to big.

I just stick with the thumbnail sizes, but you must reduce your photo size. 1064 x something rings a bell. I haven't a clue how you get the big photos, but, then again, nothing I do is so important that I have to change how the site loads

What type of file?
And it's not really the size of the photo, it's the size of the file that is probably stopping you.

JPG photo, 286 KB, reduced to 800 x 800 pixels not large at all.

I have not had trouble loading photos before, something is up with my profile or the site . . . . . .

I don't think there is any issue with the site or your profile.
Tell me exactly how your trying to upload the file, as things might have changed when they updated a little while ago.

User CP, pictures and albums, go to a album, upload photos, select file and upload. It fiddle farts around for 2 or 3 minutes and then comes back with "upload failed".

If you are a Mod, try and upload using my profile.

Yes I'm a mod, but I can't get into you profile, that private only to you.

I did find out that the file you're trying to upload is too large, it can only be 150kb maximum in albums.

I think it might have changed via the last update/fix.

Same problem I've been having the last month or so. I also never had a problem before but just too much going on right now to worry about it much.

Beautiful photo LF, that a sunset or sunrise.

Sunset. Wife took the photo with her phone from our front yard in Peoria, AZ. Completely untouched, unaltered. We get some killer sunsets here.

I must be doing the same operation as Hodgy because I get the same results. When I had an an older phone and Windows 7 I had no problems. After I got Windows 10 pictures that did load are sideways, even pictures I too a few years ago. with the new phone pictures are too large, so I have to resize them but they are still sideways and small.

I need a picture taking, posting class!

I got tired of messing around, the site should re-size automatically but it does not so I just made a youtube video.

You need Windows 7 back. I'll give it up and go to Linux before I'll go to Windows 10. Too many horror stories of forced updates borking systems and getting BSODs.

I've been using a Mac Mini for a long time now and it's been great but it has been taking a lot of updates lately which could have something to do with it. When I was running a windows system it went from bad to worst. I downgraded from Windows 7 to 10 and then got so fed up with it I wiped it and put Linux Mint on it which was a great system and I still have it but the MM works so good it's hard to change. Sorry, here I go wondering off again.

Here is a test pic from me...

I click on MANAGE ATTACHMENTS in the ADDITIONAL OPTIONS window below the text window and that opens a window that lets me search for my pics. It automatically goes to Web Pics (where all my down-sized pics are for web use).

I use Lightroom for photo file management. I have an export file I named Web Pics and everything going to that file gets down-sized to 1024 by 72 which tends to yield the full res picture on a monitor for the fewest jiggly-bites of space. At that resolution, I have never had a problem uploading online...

Here is a link to the image resizer I use. It's a Windows add-on, and when installed and you click on an image, if you right click, a dialog box pops up with a choice to resize the image. You can set the size of the resized image, and it creates the new image with "(custom)" appended to file file name.
