Gallery Problem

[Mick]

It has come to my attention that one or two members are having trouble uploading to the gallery competitions.
if you have this problem (limit reached ) please let me know
every member is given a amount of space in the gallery those that donate to the site get extra space.
but once this is used then you cant enter the competitions
this has happened before and the only way to sort it is for the site owner to change the settings.
I don't have access to this part of the site as its an addon and not part of the site.
the owner is working away in America at the moment and not sure when he will be back but as soon as I see him I will let him know of the problem

in the mean time we will see if we can carry on with the competitions if it gets where to many members cant upload then the competitions will have to be put on hold for a while.
sorry about this.
Mick

Could we have a thread where we can post our comp pics as attachments then you put them in the comp for us?

How can we see how much 'space' we have left Mick? I compressed a lot of earlier ones as I was having trouble with internet connection so will have used less space than others I think but I haven't been doing that recently...

[Mick]

Er that would mean me downloading them to my pc then uploading them to the comp
if your struggling to upload to the comp you can pm me and let me know first
then I know
then you can e-mail them to me and I will put them in for you but
this is a bad way and going to take a lot of my time up
so really if there is too many members having problems then I think it would be best to suspend the comps till I can get it sorted
I will upload the odd photo for members but not 30 or 40 photos sorry

when you run out of space you will get a message (limit reached) or something similar when you try to upload a photo
this by the way only applies to the gallery

Not so in my case, mine shows I have plenty of space but I have 2 pics in queue, I think it`s these 2 pics that`s stopping me uploading.

I can`t do anything with them, they are stuck in the upload queue.

It did it with me. I resized the originals then uploaded them again

Be patient everyone Roy is back, has been told, and will sort it.
Though... He might be able to sort it quicker if folk bribe him with a contribution to the site! 😊

Tell him to take his time, there's no rush

Cheapskate

[gpick24]

I'm not made of money you know.
Seriously though, I'll sort it after my hols. Been here long enough now.

What that about, contribution to the site?
I am willing to put a few quid in the kitty if it keeps the site running.

pm me with details please Mick.
