acfixerdude Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Was having trouble uploading photos after right clicking the photo I wanted, clicking edit, and then editing to resize. I'd choose the newly created resized photo, which is well within upload size restrictions, and it would give me a max upload error... If I back out of that post, refresh, go back in and try again it works with the new photo. Something about editing and saving a photo in the upload selection window is causing the site to freak out. I'll edit the photos ahead of time from now on, but thought you might want to know about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Team Samurai Samurai Appliance Repair Man Posted January 15, 2016 Team Samurai Share Posted January 15, 2016 Hi Michael - I just attached and uploaded a file that was 55 kb with not glitch. What was the file size you tried to upload? I'll try to re-create the error using a comparably sized file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acfixerdude Posted January 15, 2016 Author Share Posted January 15, 2016 Desktop. It wasn't the size of the file since I was eventually able to upload it. Try right clicking a photo when you go to select one for upload, click edit, save your resized photo with a new name, attempt to upload that new photo or any photo.

Hmm.. when I right click, I just get the editing options that local computer gives, not the site software. I don't see any photo editing options native to the forum software. Unless I'm missing something. I can upload any image and insert it into the post but I don't see where the forum software provides any capabilities to edit that image, just insert it or delete it. Could you post a screencast of what you're doing? You could just a free program like Jing to make a short little screencast. https://www.techsmith.com/jing.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acfixerdude Posted January 16, 2016 Author Share Posted January 16, 2016 I'll do that when I get a chance today, but when I right click the picture to edit, it is using the local computer to edit in paint, not the forum software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, so this sounds like a problem with your local software (ie., installed on your computer vs. the software running this forum). You could try re-sizing the photo before you upload it. Or get a Mac. Other than that, not much I can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
