Why can't I post attachments?

Oldpeg · 03-20-2010, 06:50 AM

The photo is 1000x660 pix, and weighs 130 kb, all within tolerances . Yet, I keep getting the «Upload failed» message. Why is that? Thanks.

I doesn't work very well at all. Use Google Picasa or one of the other services like Photobucket and then link to the image.

I am a smugmug member

I posted pictures from my gallery last week

it won't copy a photo from smugmug

My gallery settings include external links

I chose embeddable links

I copied

I dragged
I pasted

What ought I do? It's been one hour jacking around

What gives

Nobody can attach pics anymore, you need to link them from your smugmug account use the mountain icon not the paperclip icon.

Have a read here if you need more info.

yeah my heading should have been can't post a photo from smugmug.

I use the mountain icon..it asks for a URL. I don't understand. I thought I just click copy on the embeddable links tab and drag my photo

I read and printed the instructions and think I am following them

You need to copy the image address not the image are you using a Mac or PC?
