How to upload pictures after the update?

[JC1]

Hi Guys,

Got around to cutting up a bunch of oil filters and I went to post them pics and it's saying file size is too large. Is there a limitation to the size of pics with the site update that recently occured?

I did a search (here not a Google Advanced search) and didn't get anything good on the first few pages of results.

Looks like about 1 MB is the max image size.

Thanks Quattro Pete. Now I'm going to have to find something to shrink these images.....

What OS ? Windows - use Paint. Mac - use Preview.

Can you try your pictures again - original size (8MB limit)

Is avatar changeable or are we leaving it just names so the donor tags can be added?

Site looks fantastic by the way.

I will add the donor avatars as soon as things calm down a bit.

Just so I understand, no custom avatars then?

Wayne, Thanks. I found a way in windows to shrink the pics. I'll do that to save space on the site.

You can use imgur links as well.

No need - the site will do it for you.

Windows 10. Found a way to pretend to email pics to someone, windows will shrink them all into the %TEMP% folder, then I copy them into another folder and then upload.

Correct, at least for a while.

That's fine, more incentive to donate.

Thanks for the support. I know it's a lot of work to migrate to a new board.

You're welcome. Yes, it's a crazy amount of work.
