    Default So, is there a trick to posting a photo?

    I get this when I try to add a photo to my album:
    vBulletin Message
    Failed to write file. Check disc quotas and permissions for the path: ./albumpics/thumbs/3/a2c55ea88597037e4ab7142e696257a1_3427.jpg



    If I try to upload using the paper clip attachment manager thing for a new thread or a reply to an existing thread, I get "upload failed".

    Is it just not possible to upload photos?

    Sorry if this has been thrashed out previously, but I've looked and can't find the information on how to do this. This forum has pretty much the same user interface as tons of others on the web, and I've had no problem using the paper clip thing or the "insert image" icon on the reply box on other forums.

    Any assistance will be gratefully received.

    It's a glitch. Been reported. Hopefully it will be fixed soon.

    Default I guess you need to first put it on a photo site

    I put this on photobucket and was able to post it by inserting the image URL. It shows up in the preview, so maybe it'll show up when I hit Submit Reply.

    This is a vapor ring from a morning when I was easily amused!

    The ring on the right in this one sort of looks like there's a cat in it. Or a keyhole. Not sure. Vapor is like clouds where you get to see stuff in it...

    It looks like pop art. Maybe you could be a smoke ring artist and make lots of money.

    This error is still going on with uploading photos to the album, rendering them useless. Any idea of when a fix to this will be made?

    its on the list Jim...

    When the new VB specialist hire gets to that one, it will be fixed.

    Best you can do for now is keep an offsite photo album to link to pics.
