Bruce, I can't post a pic either. I am trying to post a 134kb pic 1000 x 750, same as always and I get a message in the status box stating that the pic is too big, max 500kb allowed. What am I doing wrong?
Cheers

When I remove postimage the thing works again.
Apparently there is a problem with postimage & the inbuilt upload facility.

I tried the usual way again and it said it was to large (100x750 and 143kB)then failed so I resized to 990x743 and loaded OK, so I'm guessing that will need to be 999x 999 max? I have been using Irfanview (free download) to resize all my pics for a few years now and I find it quick and simple.

Well I've adjusted it to 1010 X 1010 so I'm guessing it'll allow 1009 X 1009 ? lol
David I presume you meant 1000X750? (initially)
By the way ... I noticed Caravanners has got rid of PostImage too.

These geese wander around down on the reserve near our shops, one often has to stop for them as they waddle across the road.
