attachment limit?

[SMOKE-DOG]

There is an attachment limit? If so, it looks like I am at mine. I guess I can't post anything anymore. Is there a way around this? Any suggestions?

I think you might have to just go get a photobucket (http://photobucket.com/) account. I have used photobucket for years. :)

Monthly bandwidth I think is their only restriction so I would not keep images too huge with them.

Attachment limit of what type? We also have a gallery on the nav menu above

When downloading pics from my computer, It says I have exceeded my quota and wont let me put pics into post. I guess there is a limit on how many attachments you can have. Am I doing something wrong? I want to start a new forum but dont want to get rid of any pics I already have posted.

Well I guess I won't be able to post anything else since my attachment limit has been reached. Any suggestions? No? This is a lot different than most forums. I'm no computer pro so I really don't know any other way around this.

What is the exact error message you are getting when you try to post with an attachment?

What is the file you are trying to attach? a picture?

When I click "manage attachments" to add pictures to a forum, I browse my computer for my pics, click on them, attempt to download and it says "upload failed". The bar looks full and it says sum of attachments 1.13mb. How else can I add pics into a thread without deleting any pics I already have posted?

Is the size of your pictures too big?

I also see some people have full sized pics in their thread that aren't listed as attachments (like mine with little thumbnails) How do they do this? Someone suggested Photobucket but I still don't see how that would work.

They use an offsite host, photobucket is one example

Most internet service providers offer some storage for pictures, movies, or web pages to thier customers.

I just started doing this yesterday for the first time with Photobucket.com, first set up an account (its free) and then you can download or upload whatever they call it your pictures by browsing your computer to them and save them to photobucket. Select the size you want. When you make a post on here just copy and paste the IMG code line below the picture into your text message body of your post. review it and you should see the pictures appear magically :) others might be more help here;)

this place scares me.

If you have your own web server you can just use that to host images as well. :cool:

Wyo, Moondoggie, thanks. I'll try the Photobucket. I just hate signing up for more crap. Christian, me too.
