Photo attachment size

Unread post by ~Z~ »

I believe I've fixed a bug where photos from a cell phone or other unaltered shots had to be resized to something smaller to be able to be uploaded here. You should now be able to upload your .jpeg photos to the site as an attachment on a message board post, and it'll resize it to a maximum dimension of 1200x800. Let me know if attachments work better for you all now.

Can photos stored on a laptop be uploaded? I don't know how it's done, from my understanding, you had to have a photo with a web address link in order to upload to here.

Below the save draft, preview and submit buttons on the full post editor, there are two tabs: options and attachments. Select the latter and that’s where you can upload. It’ll work from your laptop, desktop, phone or tablet all the same.
