    [MERGED] Can't load photos

    I've not had the problem before, but this morning, after the photos are loaded from my camera and after I have been asked for the titles, the next screen refuses to load so the previous 10 minutes is wasted. It's happened three times and I am not inclined to try again.

    Images are 3.3MB (is that right) from a standard digital camera.

    Ta!

    Images are whatever size the camera does, there's no such thing as standard. Even if we knew theMP rating of the camera it also depends on if they're in fine/economy mode and also what JPG compresssion the camera uses..

    can you email one of the pictures and I'll give it a go to the admin address for the website

    YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE

    No you're lucky enough to have a different problem! You're using the vB built in way of uploading photo's. Sorry it's all very confusing.
    Will try to look in to yours at some point... or someone will.
    Forum help and advice needed?

    Try opening the photos in a program like photoshop or similar, go into image on the tool bar and re-size image. Save the re sized image (under a different name if you want to keep the original) It will then show you a screen named jpeg options, this gives you the chance to change the image quality. If you reduce this to medium you should be able to post.
    I'm no expert and there is probably a far quicker way of doing it but it works ok for me and my 10mp camera. Hope this helps

    That is what I have been doing, plus using another host such as Flickr or Image Shack

    The problem with the forum software is not a size issue, I've tested large uploads that have worked fine and I have tested small uploads that have failed.
    There is something with the way that Photopost works or is configured that is causing a problem.
