Problems with attaching photos to postings

[imperialbari]

As it may be known I actually DO know how to attach photos, as I have done so very often.

From this thread you will know that I found an illustration of a suggestion made, but not illustrated, in previous discussions. And I had to make a work-around to present that photo

I might have been my personal quota that had been reached, but I have reasons to believe it is a general problem.

I cannot offer any solutions, only say that I would be sad if the option of adding photos is no longer available.

Klaus, I have just tried and got the same message, so guess it is a system problem, rather than specific to you.

Over to Sean...

Schleppie! How did you do that? I just got the same message. It says "Sorry, the board attachment quota has been reached".

[Dan Schultz]

Yeah. But... you posted that picture on July 16th.

I don't think the upload function is working today.

If the photo is being hosted elsewhere then there is no space used on the TubeNet servers. I have always posted pictures that way when I want to avoid the limitation of only three per post. Just can be a bit fiddly linking the URL's.

In this particular case... the problem does not seem to be the limit of three per post. I can get along with that. What appears to be currently happening is that the space allowed by the forum itself is limited and perhaps the cache needs to be cleared out to make room for current stuff. The pictures I normally post directly to TubeNet are only about 80kb in size.... well under the allowed 256kb per image.

Well... it took a while for me to figure it out. After all.... I AM just a dumb old tuba player! There is also a limit for total uploads. Once I cleared the old uploads in my 'user control panel'... I can once again post pictures. Yaaaay!
