sangiro 4 #8 March 2, 2004 Can you try to attach a very small picture to your next post? (like your own avatar). See if that works. If it does, then we know it's a size issue, if not, then it's something else in which case I'll ask (like AD did) - what platform and browser are you using?Safe swoops Sangiro Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nutz 0 #9 March 2, 2004 Alright, that worked. It says the picture I was trying to upload is 54kb. I guess that is wrong?? The browser I am using is IE6.0? It is the latest one as I am using my work computer and gets an update every stinking day, there is one waiting to load right now. Thanks for your help!

skymama 35 #10 March 2, 2004 I had trouble uploading a picture the other day. I was having to make it really tiny, and it still said it was too big. Finally, I figured out that the resolution was too high. When I made the quality of it a little less, it worked after that.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cornholio 0 #11 March 9, 2004 I think it's a different problem... I think someone forgot where to put the decimal ... QuoteYour attachment was not uploaded successfully: The attachment exceeds the maximum attachment size (0.59 KB) See the 0.59KB ?? Shouldn't it be 59.0 KB ?? edit: btw- this was when composing a PM, not a regular post. Butthead: Whoa! Burritos for breakfast! Beavis: Yeah! Yeah!

turtlespeed 212 #13 April 12, 2004 I'm getting a message that the size is too big.But it is saying that the maximum size is 6.68k I don't UNDERSTAND!!! What's really baking my noodle is that the first pics were fine. PM me, please, if there is a solution. Thanks. Now the message says:"Your attachment was not uploaded successfully: The attachment exceeds the maximum attachment size (11.6 KB) "I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sangiro 4 #15 April 23, 2004 Testing: Image showing as 60 KB in Windows Explorer. Showing as 59.4 KB in PhotoShop...Safe swoops Sangiro Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sangiro 4 #16 April 23, 2004 Ok... looks like it's working fine. Image size limit for attachments is 60 KB. Make sure your software reports size accurately if you're close to the limit. For an avatar the limits are: 10 KB, 65x75 pixels. There is indeed a decimal error in the error reporting for PM attachments. I'll fix that. Just a quick note here. I looked at the size of several images in Windows Explorer that was reported up to 20% wrong (lower) than the real image size. Very interesting. Definitely a bug in Windows. For example an image showing as 61 KB in Windows Explorer was in fact 86 KB when opened in PhotoShop. Do not trust WI to give you an accurate display of image size.
