Problems with upload of images

[asuser]

Hello,

i've already problems with upload of images/icons into the forum themes. The following message appears:


Sorry, the board attachment quota has been reached.


What does it mean, who can help or inform the technical service?

Greetings!

Ok, now it's everything fine! Uploads possible!

Right now, 21:43 o'clock in Germany and upload of images isn't possible.

The following message appears again:

Sorry, the board attachment quota has been reached.

Could it be that the servers can't manage the intense data volume or access activities at this time?

Feedback and information to the service people welcome.

Greetings!

I use tinypic.com to incorporate images in threads. It's easy to upload and there's no requirement to sign up.

Thanks the_iron_duke for your help. I doesn't have any experience with this service. Is it save, where does the images or pictures go?

I think, it's a better solution for the forum members to solve the upload problem at this place! So is the problem identified from the technical service team (Slitherine?) ??? Hello, somebody at home ???

Greetings!

I'd say it's way better to use an outside image hoster like the one the duke mentioned or imgur.com, or any of the gazillion others

They're much better suited to host many pics than the forum. Most of them even generate the links for you so you just have to copy/paste them into your post(s) to have the pics appearing.

1) Go to tinypic.com

2) Upload the image - you have to verify you're a human by copying some words.

3) You then get a page like this one:

http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=bdc2s&s=5#.Uma-MXBz-So

On the left you will see 'IMG Code for Forums & Message Boards'

4) Copy the code underneath this - '[IMG]...' and paste it in your forum post. Where that bit of code appears your picture will appear.
