Just uploaded an image ('Walk in the Woods'). After I'd selected the file, filled in the description, etc, I clicked the upload/process button and got an 'SQL database error'.

I assumed the upload hadn't worked and tried again: same deal. I went back to the community forum only to see that the image had uploaded properly and there's now two copies there! :shock: Can you delete one of those images?

It keeps telling me the file size is too big!, I've deleted images, reduced the size of the file and still keep getting the same result :nono:

I also have the same problems every time I have uploaded a pic in the gallery :?:

Adi, I just sent you an email with a screen capture of the full message on the SQL error that I get when uploading pics to the gallery.
The pic was uploaded though :?:

Tvividr - Your problem has now been fixed ... I traced this down to a flaw in the code in the latest version of the PhotoPost software we were using. This should now be fixed.

Thanks for all your help!

Remember that file size is not just to do with the size in kb but the physical size of the image in pixels - the preferred size is an image having a side no larger than 640 pixels.

If you are running XP then download the image resizer from Microsoft, it's a free download and you'll find it as one of the XP Powertools.

Very simple to use and quick, just right click an image, hit resize, select what size you wish and the new image is done, Voila!!!

Try it out :eek:):
