Hi,

I have just tried to add a couple of photos to my "Windmill Hill" layout construction thread, but seem to have hit a problem 

Only one of the two pictures is showing. I see there is an upload limit, maybe I have reached that 

I tried uploading the picture to a few different galleries, one of mine that only has 5 photos in it, another with a hundred and something photos, and also the random members gallery.

Can anyone please help, or advise, or am I not able to put anymore photos up without deleting all my pictures and starting again ?

Hope someone can help

All best wishes
Kevin

Sounds like a job for the Keeper of the Scrolls @Only Me
Have you put any punctuation in the name of the pics, Kevin? I know it won't accept apostrophies etc

Hi Mick,

No punctuation or symbols in the picture titles, just letters and numbers as in all my photos.

Cheers
Kevin

Hopefully it gets sorted Kevin.

Hi there,

I have just tried again to add a picture to the random gallery, and to two of my galleries with no luck.

Every time, and on every gallery I get the message ....

Quota limit 290MB
Quota space used 289.93MB
Quota space left 70.25kB

I am trying to upload the photos from a folder on my lap top.

Any ideas ?

All best wishes
Kevin



P.S. The cheque is in the post 

Looks like you've used all your quota Kevin, barring 70 kb. So you could still probably upload a low res scan of a postage stamp.

 

I thought that limit was for each gallery, not the total limit.

Is there any war round it apart from deleting a load of photos.

A forum for another hobby I used to post on had  limit on picture size so I do know how to re-size photos using irfanview.

All best wishes
Kevin

Can you rederence fotos from another users galleries? Then you just need another email address to open a nnew a ccount with another 300 MB...

    

Fantastic ...... thank you so much for sorting that for me. Very much appreciated.

The photos I have been posting do seem pretty big. Do you think it would be better if in future I re-sized them before posting ?

Once again many thanks for your help..... have a great weekend

All best wishes
Kevin

As per our rules multiple accounts are fround apon.....

I added a 500mb limit to the OP.... it might take 24hours to kick in or i might have fopared.... cant check now until tomorrow im afraid


Ok i think i found the problem try again pls!

Correct. Multiple accounts are not a thing to do... but in such a special case, it might be an idea to create such a storage-account...

That's easy, it was in an out take from 'Kellys Heroes'.
