Hi, apologies if this is answered somewhere else, I am having trouble uploading to an album in my Gallery; I got one picture done but any others I now get "0 files uploaded".
The photos are 2770Kb in size. JPG format.
What might I be doing wrong? Is there a "How to" somewhere that I have failed to find?
Sometimes the upload will timeout with larger pics... if you continue to have trouble try reducing the size of the photo 21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021
1. I only get three "Upload" boxes not the 5 shown in the snips; I tried three pix, then a single one. No joy
2. The first file I uploaded has worked, no new ones.
Am on a PC / Windows 7 / Firefox 3.6.10. All latest updates. I'll try it on Internet Explorer____

Just tried on Internet Explorer. Identical. Tried a miniature jpg. Works fine, so.....
Come to conclusion that the 7Mb limit suggested in the blurb is wrong...? My files are about 2.7Mb.____

7mb is the maximum the system will allow ...the upload time varies dependent on your specific network circumstances tbh.21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021
OK. I'm on highspeed broadband (8Mbps / 448kbps real speed) so don;t think it's my end. Will try at work (got 100Mb uncontended internet).
In teh meantime, I'll try to compress them a bit. 7Mb seems improbably high as a limit if the site's server times out at 2.7meg.
What size limits have other posters hit?____

I've never understood the need to upload such huge pictures.....a 1024x768 JPEG takes up less then 200kb and has more than enough detail even when zoomed in.... 2006 Discovery 3 TDV6 SE AutoBuckingham Blue 2007 Golf GT DSG
Yes, agreed; I've just resized them to 200Kb and they still won't upload. Something's wrong somewhere.
Give up.____

Strange....I uploaded a load of 150-200Kb jpegs today and did them 5 at a time with a rather shakey/slow internet connection and it worked fine.
Not sure what would cause you to get 3 upload slots instead of 5?

Um. Well, I'll maybe have another go tomorrow when I've had a couple of beers, instead of the teetotal state I'm in now. That's often a factor...____
