Uploading pictures ?

[gavjg]

Hi Everyone

Love chatting to all of you, But I just cannot upload any pictures from my computer.
I can change my avitar but if I want to upload say a picture for stud of the day then even if I follow the rules for file sizes, I still get an internal server error.
I have tried the instructions as mentioned on the help pages, but still no luck.
Has anyone else had this problem ? And if so do you have any advice you can give me please ?
Thanks in advance

tec support intentions are good but limited by how busy Andy is.

sometimes jpeg images have code embedded in them. Try a few images from different sources. try an image that is way too small but use it for a test run

good luck

You should upload them to a file hosting site like photobucket, and then embed them in your post using [img] and [/img (you have to close the bracket).

Hi gavjg.


Upload via Gayspeak:

1. First you have to set up an album. Go to your profile, click Add Album.



2. Name your album and select album types. You can add description too. Select Submit.



3. You will be directed to Upload Page. Select 'Click Here to Upload Pictures!'



4. Browse photos from your computer. Once completed, click 'Upload Pictures'



5. You can add description to the uploaded photo/s. Then click 'Save Changes'.



6. You will be directed to your album. Click a photo.



7. You will be directed to that particular photo. Select the highlighted link by right click (mouse). Copy the link.



8. Paste the link on a reply form. Ready to preview.



There's another way to upload photos. You can use a storage website such as Photobucket to upload and link photos. I'll show the steps when I'm free.

or you could just go to a blog or something that already has pictures of people you find attractive, right click it and select "copy image location" then press this little button and paste the link.

Thank you to everyone who has given me help for uploading images.
I have never had a problem like this to upload images to anywhere else before so this was a bit of a mystery.
I will update you when I try it the various ways you have suggested.
Thanks XXX mile:
