British BBQ Society Forums

Tried to post message and pics. Says pics maybe 600pixels wide, then says failed and contact admin if persists. Any ideas? Am I too raw to post pics yet?

naa you should be able to... which site are you getting the image from?

I'm using Flickr so have to select 'Medium' or smaller when copying an image otherwise I get the same error message as you.

Cheers

I use photobucket but cant seem to get thumbnail size via their app but doing it on PC gives you the option to get the right size for posts

there is a image limit for the forum. before it was put in people were posting massive images which screwed up the layout. With photobucket you have to go to settings and click that you want the thumb option. not sure why they changed it and was a real pain in the ass to work out the first time but once you have changed it in the setting the thumb option will always be there for you.

Ahh, I tried to post direct. So do I have to upload to a photo site?

Yes.
