Here's an error message I keep getting while trying to post, what am I doing wrong?

The upload folder is full. Please try a smaller file and/or contact an administrator.

I can't remember for sure but that sounds like the same error message I was getting recently. I was getting a error message and a forum friend instructed me to "resize" my pictures . I would right on the picture and then click on edit . I chose the option to resize and did that from 100 to 50%. When I closed the picture I was asked if I wanted to save the changes. I saved the changes and used the now resized pictures and they went through. I hope this works for you.

Not in this instance.  I just tried to attach a picture well below the 2MB limit and below the 800 x XXX dimensions that the forum software automatically resizes to (maintaining original aspect ratio) when using the email style attachment method.

This is something new.

Chris, I figured if I posted the error message here, that the administrator would surely see it, and respond. I already resized the photo to be well within the limits. Thanks Denny

Apparently, the "error message"  comes when attempting to post a photo(s). I too got that message, and I typically don't have issues as I like to post photos I actually take not images found on the internet. I sent Ron Richards aka computer works a pm as well, but I haven't heard. The strange thing is the issue seems to be at random as others can post.

Anyway, hope it gets resolved soon. Patience....

Those that have had success have linked from an external (non SAAC) server.

I can upload photo to my gallery without issue, but can't ad a photo as an attachment to a thread. This may be a maintenance issue, as I recall it happening a couple of times on the old forum. With the holiday weekend upon us it might be a day or two until this gets resolved.

Okay, I was successful at posting an image from my gallery. The image is huge. Has anyone figured out how to reduce the size from the gallery to a post?

I haven't tried uploading a really small pic to my gallery then attempt posting it. Maybe tomorrow I'll try it when I have more time...

I just tried for about 30 min to add an image the old way, by using the attachment button on the bottom of the thread. I took it down to 5" x 5" at 72 DPI and it still wouldn't take it. Way smaller that any image I had posted in the past. I think it was less than 1/2 a meg. I hope this is something that can get resolved, as this is a much easier way to post an image without going to my photo gallery and upload it there, then have to relink it to the post. I did do that for an image I just posted and determined 144 dpi at about 1400 x 1400 pixels worked well. My first image was 2800 x 2800 and was way too big for the screen when linked.

I hope we can get the easier way to post an image fixed, as I much prefer that method, as I think a lot of us feel likewise-
