Default trouble adding photos

I am trying to add photos to my albums.
I check the size is OK, Copy from my desktop and insert in
the browse box. I see no photo only the description to the right of
the browse box.
If I click on upload photos instead of photo added to my album
only the description appears.


I recall a couple days ago when I tried the same way
I got a message saying I needed to belong to a group.
Any idea what is wrong?


Thanks, Ron

You need to reduce the photo in advance. Then it goes normally. But it's annoying. I take photos in e-mail format.

Ron, there is a 75mb max photo size.

I'm having similar issues. Something changed with the recent server migraton and I haven't figured it out yet.

Kerry,
I was trying to post a flange die pic.
It says size is .3MP.
I don't know how that relates to 75mb



The resize program says best for viewing 4mp


In the past I usually tried for 480 x 640 pixels max

I don't think this pic is oversize.

Default test 800 x 600

@ 800 x 600 it shows that it exceeds the limit by 78 kb

this size worked just fine before the switch to the new server
