      Had a lot of help from admin on the other forum, but we can't afford the extra storage costs on here, being a busier forum it would be a lot of data, so i'd suggest you download the pics to your computer first before uploading (not being a tech, i'm guessing that you're uploading straight from the card in the camera?)

      Sorry if i'm wrong, only a gardener trying to help :)

        yep, I was uploading from my camera directly to the site. Guess I will have to do that from now on. One camera works well on this site. The newer one does not. So maybe for flowers etc in my gardens I will only use the old camera. I just want to avoid a step if possible. thanks much. But it is good in the long run you did find out that it is possible and how to do it for future reference. and that is a positive step.

              Hmmmmm, that is odd - if anything, it should be working at it's peak, as I carried out a load of maintenance yesterday evening. Bear with me, and I will have a look and rebuild the image cache.

                I uploaded 8 in one post earlier today.
                What size are the images you are trying to upload?

                  OK, I have just rebuilt both image caches, and everything appears to be running lightning fast at my end. Just dragged four random images onto this thread without a problem too; if you are still having problems @Palustris, I would try rebooting your PC

                    I had no problem uploading a number of photos yesterday - about 10 to a post - apart from my usual one of it always uploading one or two less than I've 'dragged and dropped' :rolleyespink:.

                    This only happens if I try to drop more than six :scratch:. Up to five is OK, 6-8 misses one image and 9-12 misses two images. Not much of a problem as I only need to check which ones didn't transfer and then just do those again - into the same post.

                        I cannot upload a file at all now and can only drag and drop one as I get a message saying text is too long. Even then I have to copy my post, delete my reply then paste my copied post in ... then it posts! :scratch::rolleyespink:

                            Pc and have had no trouble uploading 640 by 480 images before. Tried earlier and it allowed me to select one image at a time, and then save them to the album. I Uploaded 6 or so like that. It is the highlighting of multiple images which is not working on here. It still works on Imgur though.
