Phil, I will look into this tomorrow with sleep under my belt.  Right now it is past my bedtime and I'm afraid if I fiddled with settings now I'd break something and then Randy would come after me with the whip instead of me going after him!   :LOLOL:

Phil I just went in and took a good look at the attachment settings for the forum.  With 1000 kb maximum per image and a total maximum of 2000 kb per post, you shouldn't be having a problem.  I'm a touch confused.   :icon_scratch:

As long as it seems to be working then, I'm not going to touch anything.

 I realize I am new here, but limiting photo size to accommodate cell phone viewers sounds a little lame to me. Very lame in fact. This is the only forum I am a member of that requires this. I am sure  everybody here has a computer, let the full size photos go through and let the phone users use their computers to view pics if they are really interested.

If you read further through the topic you will find that the photo size limit was put back up to the original size, it is just set to create smaller thumbnails which will enlarge when someone clicks on the picture.

Are attachments limited to jpeg format or can other formats such as gif be used?

Last I knew almost any format could be uploaded, I haven't changed that setting.

I wish I had seen this sooner.
However I'm on a computer just like you are and I'm not having any problems uploading photos.
The only way to help you would be to know the size of what you are trying to upload, where you are uploading from, and the file format you are using for your photos.

Don't sweat it, Amanda. If that person (last year) had known there would be NO forum if you guys hadn't intervened, maybe he/she might have had a better attitude. Better off without people like that... .

Point taken.  I do however want to try to help people, so if I am made aware of a problem I do try to do everything in my power to fix the issue and then scream for help from Randy if I can't.
