Dodgeb4ya Posted July 4, 2020 Report Share Posted July 4, 2020 (edited) I have had that limit show up many times over the years.. I have to then delete old pics for more new...l post too many pictures here. I try to shrink all to maybe 50KB.

greg g Posted July 4, 2020 Report Share Posted July 4, 2020 When I go to manage attachments it shows 28 or 29 pages of pictures and other graphic stuff I have posted through the years. I have never seen a message like that. Most of what I take is done at my devices lowest resolution settings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobT-47P15 Posted July 4, 2020 Report Share Posted July 4, 2020 Andy.....do you use Photobucket to store your pictures? I use them......and lately have been receiving messages about paying for certain plans.....and they sometimes over ride your picture with a logo thing when they are transferred to a forum. They seem to want more money from their users nowadays. I pay about $98 per year which I consider plenty. So I have been messaging their problem solver person stating that I already pay and don't want to pay for anything more. That person has usually replied he does not know why I get those messages and to ignore them. Lately a sales message has been appearing when I open up my account with various ads appearing all over things.....to avoid them, I have been signing in each time even though it should not be necessary, and that seems to get me away from the ads.

Andydodge Posted July 6, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2020 Bob........nope, I don't have any account storage other than my home computer, this message limit thing has only started in the past week or so, I have been reducing the pics by 80% which seems to have allowed me to post a few but its a weird thing as I havn't had this happen before.........anyway I'll sort it out........lol.........andyd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
50mech Posted July 6, 2020 Report Share Posted July 6, 2020 Always a 3MB limit per post. I usually have to put them in in Lightroom on my phone then export as jpg small to get two up. There are apps (and websites) just for resizing by file size but ive been procrastinating downloading one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P15-D24 Posted July 6, 2020 Report Share Posted July 6, 2020 Please remember the reason for the limit is I'm paying for the storage. On Mac you can use Preview to resize, Paint on Windows. For displaying on the web they really don't ever need to be bigger than 100-300 kb. Or you can alway use a third party service and post the URL.
