pictures

[Maggie Cummings]

why do I see that some people can have (for example) 31 pictures in one thread and when *I* post a thread the TFO computer makes me stick to 10 pictures. It comes on and tells me if I have more than 10, that I need to cut back to 10. Yet the Magic Hat thread had 31 pix. Y'all know I would post more pictures of Bob if the computer would let me...So what's up???

I knoooooowwww Maggie, when I post pics I have a max of 50 mb that I can use....so when I want to add pics and it goes over that I have to go and delete pics and when I delete the pics it rips the pics from the original thread they were in???????

I have to say that is the reason that I too do not post many pics...????

are you using attachments files of pictures or putting in IMG codes from photobucket or something similar? I use photobucket and it lets me put as many as I want.

I have never been limited to my pictures that I am aware of! Can one of the board members comment and clarify?

I don't know the answer but I want more Bob pictures!! Could it be the size of the pictures you are posting?

Yes, more Bob, it's the only way I can prevent myself from buying a Sulcata, I just love the Bob stories.

I for one, do not know the answer to this. I also do not have the ability in this forum, to go in and check to see what perimeters this site is set up for. Sorry, this is a question for Josh, so I moved it to this section. Good question Maggie!

I used to be only allowed to show 10 pictures in my thread, but in the recent thread I made showing "pictures around the place..." I was allowed more than 10. So I don't know the answer either.

If you're uploading photos directly to TFO (NOT using photobucket, etc) then you may be limited to 10. I will look into this. It should be higher.
If you use photobucket or tinypic (or others) to host your photos elsewhere and you just copy/paste the IMG code, then I believe it is unlimited.

 

[Maggie Cummings]

I use tinypic, and it's not tinypic's computer that restricts me, it's the TFO computer that tells me I have too many pictures. And that's exactly what it says, that I can only have 10 pictures, it doesn't say anything about picture size or megapixels or anything. It simply says I can only download 10 pictures to my thread. I use an IMG code from tinypics...hope this info helps solve my problem...

you know I *MIGHT* like to show off some of my other chelonia too....I have some pretty tortoises and box turtles

I use the IMG code from tinypic.com and I've done more than 10 in one post before. I upload any size pic and tinypic.com just resizes them for me. I think the forum automatically resizes too.

As I told Maggie through PM - I also use tinypics IMG codes for the message board size photos (640x??) and I've been able to put more than 10 as well. I hope there is a solution somewhere. I'd love to see ALL of your torts.
