Picture upload from computer doesn't work?!!

[SunDance]

When I upload a picture from my computer to the board (instructions in "insert image"), it uploads and I see a tiny picture. When I hit "send", it posts with a link instead of the picture. At first, when I click on the link, I see the picture. Seemingly, no one else sees anything but "invalid" and when I go to check, I also get "invalid".

Are we not able to upload from our computers anymore or might this be a fixable glitch?

Thanks, Woody!

I just saw your test post. I have changed nothing in the settings etc.


1. The photo size that this board can handle is relatively small. Most photos that you take on your camera etc are massive in file size especially these days with the fancy cameras etc. That is why I ask to share your photos from a third party source because it is easier on the board.

2. I am not sure why they are coming up as a linked file. I checked the files that Berna uploaded and I dont see a problem I will have to research that one.

https://imgur.com/ is so easy to use. You basically drag and drop a photo onto that page and it will upload and then you right click and copy the image location and paste it back here in the From URL box of the image upload box.

Testing an upload.

What Browsers were you all using when it did the link instead of the photo?

The new Edge, but I'd had the same problem with the old Edge. (Windows 10 desktop) Norton's my security system, if that may be relevant.

The largest of the three pictures I tried uploading is 220 KB, smallest is 120 KB.

Looks like Edge is the problem. Firefox gave me pictures (hope they stick around).

Google Chrome worked when I uploaded the first one from the computer in the office. It didn’t work when I tried to upload the screenshots for Barb from my computer at home.
When I tried IE 11, it worked.

Who would have thought!
