Previously, I have gone to advanced and clicked the paper clip and uploaded a photo that way. Now it says file failed to upload. I am using a new camera and wonder if the file is too large. The guy at the camera shop did say the pictures with the new camera would take up more room in the computer or something. Any other ways to upload a picture? thanks

Hi Juniper,

Sorry for the inconvenience. Is that still happening when you try to upload a picture to your post or is it working properly now?

Thanks,
Mike

darn, I wish I could say it worked. I go to advanced, paperclip, upload from my computer, browse pictures, pick one, hit upload and after about 5 minutes of sending request to horseforum it says file upload failed.

Hmm,

I just tested it and it works. Do you happen to know how large the photo you are trying to upload is? If it is a 10 megabyte photo straight from a digital camera then the upload script is likely timing out before the upload completes. If the file you are trying to upload is very large, you can easily reduce it's size using MS Paint.

Oh, don't mind him, he was my test subject.

that is a gorgeous photo. I will try that suggestion, thanks.

I reduced the picture, seeing if it will come through

thanks, that worked fine. It's funny how much I learn about computers on horse forum.

I'm glad it worked for you, thanks for letting me know!

MLP, you can include the image in the body of the post itself (as opposed to at the bottom) by clicking the paper clip again after you've uploaded photos and choosing one of the photos you uploaded to insert into your post.
