Re: Practice Thread
Maybe it's a board thing - it doesn't like little pictures and it doesn't like big pictures.
I just tried a 3500 x 2625 3.23 mb and failed! I definitely can't post anything over 3000 pixels wide no matter what the MB.

That seems to be the same with mine Sharon.
1.87 mb pic taken with my camera 2014. Dimensions 2000 x 1328 Posts fine. 2.7 file also posts.
2.9 mb and larger gives http error.

Scott, if the pixels and the MB are both under the limit and won't post, then something else must be at play here.by mmud » Fri Feb 15, 2019 7:10 pm

Testing............
Nope. Tried 3.93 MB and 1.01 MB and neither one will post. Like I said before, I do not get the " place in line option" even though both pic sizes get the green bar indicating they are acceptable size. HTTP error both times.

Re: Practice Thread
Elle, do you know how many pixels wide your pictures are? It shouldn't matter, but both gemini and I had trouble with pictures that were more than 3000 pixels wide.
And the green bar means it's loading - and when it finishes loading, it should change to a green checkmark like the top one in this screenshot:
It would seem if the green bar made it all the way across that we'd be in good shape, but that hasn't been my experience - it has to go to a checkmark before you get the "place inline" button.
I think we've gathered some more data since I last sent a summary to David Hathaway, so I'll pass on what we've learned (and thank you all for your help with this!) - and I think I have enough info to open a help thread on the forum for the phpBB software, in the hopes that the experts there can see something we've missed.

Re: Practice Thread
I just read the previous postings about pixels and file size. Very helpful to me.
I knew my original files, over 4000 would not post.
I changed to 500 pixels and that seemed to work, but would be interested to know what the limits are.
This photo isn't that interesting, but I did get 2 minutes of video of this eagle eating the fish, trying to swallow the tail in several attempts ...not as good as Harriet I even got the vocals!

Re: Practice Thread
The forum is set to not allow photos over 4 MB, and we really don't want to change that; there shouldn't be a limit as to the width of the image, but it seems that those over 3000 pixels wide are rejected. We haven't figured why yet - but we will. If you have some expertise in this area, please let me know - I'm learning as fast as I can, but working with someone who understands this better would help.Sunnybird1995 wrote: ↑Sun Feb 24, 2019 4:42 pmI just read the previous postings about pixels and file size.

Re: Practice Thread
We are still working on that, elle - I'm sorry for the delay, but there's a lot that needs doing right now.
Gemini found a program on the internet that will resize your photos so they will post - details are in Helpful Hints here - viewtopic.php?p=26379#p26379.
