i'm glad you're enjoying the story

ok, file size limitations.........when i first joined CSR, i was saving my pics at a higher file size than i am now. when i tried to go post a pic i would get a message telling me that the file was too large and stating the maximum size. i don't remember now what that was. it was close to what my pics were running so i started lowering file size by one number in photoshop and found that i couldn't see any visible difference in the pics at the lower level and that my pics were now below the maximum so i just started saving all my pics at the lower level. problem solved.web-ed wrote:However, I see that you've been running into some size restriction with your uploads. I checked the built-in settings, and this board has no restriction on number of pixels, but there was a file size limit of 256 KB in effect - whether this was changed when I upgraded the board two weeks ago I can't say. I preserved the data base and some critical files so most of what we had should be intact (e.g. avatars, preferences in the User Control Panel, etc.). I increased the file size limit to 10 MB, which should be enough. If you run into the same problem this week, let me know here and I'll see if there's some underlying PHP server limit (we're on a new version of PHP as well now).
since we went to the new format, i once again, started getting a message that my files were too large but it said nothing about what the maximum was.............not helpful. the last couple pics, i lowered the file size by one number again although it seemed to me that the pics weren't as clear and i really didn't want to use that level so i created a CSR version to post here. i looked through the current toon and found only 2 pics that were already below 256 kb, with the largest file being 343 kb so i am assuming that the 256 maximum has something to do with the new format. the new limit should be way more than i need to post my pics so i don't anticipate any more problems and i'll let you know if i have any further issues. thanks, phil
