Hi,

I am new here and rather than cause problems I would like to know if there is a limit on the posting of images in posts.

thanks

I think each post, 5 pictures.

Actually, I think the limit is 10 images, I think I learned that when posting photos from a show. I'm checking the FAQ's--sorry if you already did, visigoth, you didn't say--and I haven't found a specific reference to it yet. We might have to have one of the mods or have the Padre answer it for us for certain.

Prost!

PS--Mods, maybe we should move this thread to the Forum How-To section?

Rob,

Maybe it's different with Photo Shop or a photo hosting service (since I don't use those).

Hi Brad

I think the most I have posted using Photobucket is 10, but this would include any smilies ^&grin

Thanks, guys.

Is there any size limits on the images?

I was planning on keeping them less than 600 whatever units wide.

Thanks

Hi, guys, I think you're both right. Brad, I think that's the limit on attaching files directly to the post, and you're right, if you have your files hosted, you can add more. Martyn, you're right, too, I use Photobucket and our memories jibe on this one.

Prost!

Hi, visigoth,

Again, looking in the FAQs, which I highly recommend to read, I found this:

What files types can I use? How large can attachments be?

In the attachment window you will find a list of the allowed file types and their maximum sizes. Files that are larger than these sizes will be rejected. There may also be an overall quota limit to the number of attachments you can post to the board.​

I recommend using a photo hosting website, such as Photobucket, Fotki or others. You can use an HTML tag to link your photos from within your post, rather than to attachment them as files. The advantage is that you don't have to worry about file size, if you link instead of attach. Photobucket has no charge, until you reach a certain volume of files stored, and neither does Fotki, as far as I know.

Hope that all helps, prosit!

If you choose not to use a Photobucket type of site, 600 should work.

There is, See some of my dio scenes posted under K&C. Anything more than 5 of these size photos that I use will exceed the capacity to download to the thread.

You can have 5 attachments per post but you can have up to 10 images per post (including smilies and any in your signature) so it just depends on how you choose to post your images, as members have said. Hope this helps clarify things .
