Is anyone having trouble uploading photos at the moment?
« on: January 19, 2011, 09:11:46 am »
I am having trouble on both computers and get the following message (after I have reduced the size of the photo to make it under 128kb)  'The upload folder is full.  Please try a smaller file and/or contact an administrator'.

What does this mean?  Does it mean the forum upload folder is full because mine certainly isn't, I delete all food photos as soon as I put them on here so as not to clog up my computer.  By administrator do they mean get in contact with MM?  I noticed Chookie mentioned she was having trouble the other night too.

From what little I know JD, it sounds like there's an area on the Forum server where the photos are stored and that this has got full.... Hopefully MM, as site administrator, will be able to sort it out so it would be worth sending him a message.

Thanks Katya, will do that.  Can't imagine this forum without any photos - we all love them and they are a great encouragement to us all.

I was glad to hear that Chookie, now I know it's not just me too  ;D ;D
MM responded to my message to him.  He will check with his IT guy and get back to me.

Funny thing is that others are able to get their photos up but just not you and me.

Judy I have had that same message on a couple of occasions, when the pics are compressed further (using microsoft picture manager) to 'web page' size the issue resolved itself.  Cheers  :)
