Easily upload pictures to the forum

[NYGuns]

Just a heads up that the forum software is very user-friendly and it's really easy to upload pictures, whether from your computer or cell phone. If on your computer, you can drag and drop when creating a thread, select multiple pictures at once, etc. Or you can click the "Upload a File" button.

On the mobile site, you can upload pictures by clicking the "Upload a File" button and selecting the picture.

Contact me or post here if you have any questions or issues.

Is there a maximum size for images ? I tried adding a couple to a new thread but it doesn't seem to post the new thread.

If you're attaching them to the post (which dragging and dropping will do), there is a 5MB limit. I didn't see any dimension limits.

 

[NYGuns]

I actually just upped it...Each image can be up to 7 mb, and you can upload up to 50 images in 1 post.

Thank you for this. Im sivk of being the guy who posts thumbnail pictures because im too dumb. Now even I can post regular pictures wooohoo.

 

[FrankenCub]

Ah ok, I may have been above that limit then, I'll check them out and resize if needed

 

[NirvanaFan]

hahaha. It's all good. This forum software is really nice.

 

[NYGuns]

You can also "right click" on an image online, click "Copy image", then paste it into the forum

I must have a problem on my end then. Two pictures both under 1.5mb, still won't post. I'll look into it in a while.

Do you have TeamViewer? I will TeamViewer in and see what's going on and get you all squared away. Shoot me a PM with the username and password assigned on TeamViewer.

I don't have that, actually never heard of it lol. I'll check it out and PM you, this is a Linux system.

Ahh okay, I dont think TeamViewer has a Linux setup..It's basically a quick and easy remote desktop. Can you PM me a few screenshots (if you are able to upload pics) of the issues you are having? If not, e-mail me them to mike@nygunforum.com

Oh this is so much better! It's such a pain in the butt to mess around with image hosting sites on a phone!

How does one make a picture file smaller?

 

[NirvanaFan]

There is no small, medium, or large option like on the other site. You have an option of thumbnail or full size when you upload a picture. When you link to a picture from another site, you can't change the size.

If you upload a really large picture, I think it will scale it to a viewable size. When people click it, the picture will expand.

 

[1911guy]

Well, I was trying upload a pic to my avatar. It's too big so it was rejected. I don't how to make it smaller.

If you want to send it to me, I'm sure I can do it for you. My email is my username @nygunforum.com. If you're on Windows, you can try to use Paint, but sometimes that butchers the image.

This is great. Copy and paste is better than sex....well not really!

 

[1911guy]

Thank you NirvanaFan. I'll send it to you tomorrow.

Testing drag drop...

 

[Bushmaster]

Pretty awesome, works great. Wait for load, choose full image.

 

[Bigfoot]

Testing is all.
Well that is a lot easier than over at the old place.

 

[Criticalt]

I may be abusing this feature!

Wow is that fully restored? Very nice

Yeah, but sadly it's not mine LOL... Those 79' TXL's are one of the coolest looking sleds IMO.

I am into vintage sleds though.
Not exactly vintage but this 01' SRX 700 Triple below is my next project.
It's getting a fresh motor and the works.
These SRX's are crazy fast.

Easy Rider for the test pic...

I can load from my account at Photobucket but there is no option to load from desk top(?), I think thats the right term. Am I missing something?

Please refrain from the disparaging remarks about Paint's resizing abilities.

I used it and my avatars turned out just fine.
