Has there been changes to the size or number of pics that can be attached to threads or posts recently?...........I have had a message come up advising me that I have XXXX amount of space left which is a new thing for me.........and can't seem to find how to see what the limit is.........help...........lol........Andy Douglas

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.
