Default Photo upload problem

Hi there,

I have followed the instructions in a post regarding uploading photos in an album as well as profile photos. I keep receiving a "upload of file failed" message.

Could you please help?

Thanks!

No, just the "upload of file failed." I tried to upload after resizing it and that did not work.

Thanks for the reply!!

I seem to have problems uploading pictures I've taken with my digital camera to an album. I end up having to send them to my e-mail, open my e-mail from my phone, open pictures, save/screenshot, and upload from my phone. Seems to automatically resize or size them without a problem that way. I have a PhotoBucket account and have uploaded 55 pictures through that, but when I put the IMG html/URL/link in album, they come out all funky and 1/2 sized and jacked up. So haven't posted too many pictures in an album - On a thread, they are fine.

This sounds like a sizing issue. Make sure your images are at/below 200kb when you're using the uploader. Outside hosts like photobucket get around that since we're not storing the image here.
