Uploading Images / myLot

French Polynesia

October 11, 2015 2:52pm CST

OK I have now tried to upload a lot of images I have taken on this site. These are my own photos of different things around the islands. Each time I try to upload the image it freezes and won't upload. I can only get my discussion to take and not the image. I try to edit and add image. Nothing. What size do the images need to be. What is the pixel size this site can handle. I feel like the photos on my computer are either too large or too heavy for this site. Does anyone know the right size image to upload for your discussions? Thanks for your help. Would love to show everyone some beautiful pictures of the islands.

I have found the site takes a 640x480pixel full-colour image no problem, after a short pause while it uploads. If that helps...

Excellent thank you so much. I know my images are giant from my underwater camera so I will just edit the images to fit the site. Thank you so much for your help on this one. I know I can edit some of my posts so will edit the images now and upload them here.

@poehere I look forward to seeing some of your underwater photography. You may want to try higher resolutions after your first successful upload, I didn't fiddle with it much as I was taking pics off pixabay for the most part, and their lowest setting is 640x480p. Good luck!

@pgntwo Thank you so much this worked perfectly. I have uploaded 2 images so far. Now I see how it works and the large images the site can't handle.

I think he is correct when he told me the size of the image. After I resized some they went in fine.

We also have high winds here on the islands at different times of the year. Normally the plants survive them.

@poehere i reckon its what they're accustomed to there. i fear that bringin' tropicals to these parts don't make 'em much happy. my poor ginger took a beatin' this mornin' 'n while it'll survive such, its greatly tattered.
