Cant bloody my pics

[Ultramarine98]

Hi, Im pretty new
The FAQ dosent really cover these:

Right now i've posted 2 pics, both of my dread, i figured out how to post multiple on one by just plushing them into one pic, but first, how do i delete a pic and second of all, I CANT POST. FOR THE LOVE OF 40k I CANT POST, i do all the details and then it just freezes there with the loading bar moving like a slug when i press "post this pic".

Help plz, i am dying, :excruciating: . Cheers.

sounds a bit odd. When you say you cant post, do you mean on forums or under your own pic or what? I can't say I've ever had trouble posting on forums. Give us some examples and hopefully somebody can help you out.

I've never tried to delete a pic, so I cant help you there, but I daresay someone will be along in a bit to sort that one for you.

Usually for showing multiple angles of a mini what people do is take their photos and then edit them together into a montage using some photo software like photoshop or GIMP or suchlike. Then, after saving the montage as a single jpg, they just upload that single file to their gallery. Certainly, that's what I do.

Hope that helps

Well both your pictures needed approving (done this morning), so you should be able to get access to your account now.
Check out the Thread at the top of the General Dsicussions about activating accounts that should help you out.

Ok, thanks for the help, but to be more specific, i have both my current pics active, 98 more slots right?
now, when i do all the details and press the button to post the picture, it stops doing anything, I rage at it, I be nice to it, nothing works, it just does not post.
Help?:neutral:

Deleting an image from your gallery is nice and easy. At the bottom of each picture section is a drop down menu which when you see it on the screen says "update image", click on the arrow and it drops down to show "remove image". Select it - click on "Do It" and voila! Your image is gone.
I used it a fair bit when I was first hitting the 100 images limit to remove the oldest stuff I had or where I had submitted different version of the same figure......then I thought sod it and just purchased another 100 slots....coming up on that limit too now.:tremble!::laugh:

Uploading to the gallery can take a bit of a wait. But it really does sound like the file is too big. File size is limited to 1024kb but I've had pics right at 1000 and it still rejected them, saying it was too big. In a lot of editing software there is an option to "optimize for web" or "save for web", etc. Basically it makes it easier for you to control the quality, image size, and file size. I shoot for a bit over 900 and still keep moderately high quality. It can be hit or miss sometimes but with a little practice you should be able to get it.
