Help/confused.

Post by whoops »

When trying to download a photo, I get the message that the image I want so send is invalid. Can anyone enlighten why. I can't even get a preview just to make sure it is the correct picture. Also sometimes I get a message saying that there is not enough words attached. Whoops

The only problem message I've had from the forum so far is :-

The file is too big, maximum allowed size is 256 KiB.

I suspect the forum is picky about the format of pictures too but I think it takes a fair few different types.

What format is your pic in?

Have you uploaded any other pics to the new forum succesfully?

thanks gaz, I tried again . This time I compressed the picture to save space. I was told that it was invalid.

Try getting them under the Disability Discrimination Act if you are prevented from posting pics of invalids. :wink:

Your message contains too few characters.

I get this message if I try to preview or submit a post after I've uploaded a pic but not clicked "place inline".

Beakyboy's thread might help. I think compressing is different to re-sizing. :?

whoops. I've sent a PM with my e-mail address, feel free to send me the pic and I'll see if I can do anything with it this evening.

I can't promise success.
