Help trying to attach images…

The amount that can be uploaded to albums on this site is limited.

Keep trying by all means, but you’d be better linking to images you have uploaded to Flickr or Photobucket

And please don’t link images bigger than about 800 pixels wide. I only end up havinbg to ask yo to resize them

Thanks All, I will keep trying. I have some pics in my album here, but have been trying to add more so that I can show up-dates on the Spit project.

This is some info I posted in my 3D CAD- RAF Browning .303 thread on 20th April 2014, post 8.

Quite frequently, only a part of an image is displayed here from Photobucket. The full image can be seen by chasing back for the image through Photobucket and selecting greatest magnification. A bit of a nuisance, particularly if you have a low bandwidth Internet connection!

Unfortunately Photobucket are using a bad algorithm (for our purposes) for chopping the images if their size exceeds 1024×768 pixels.

It is possible to overcome this defect. Here are the instructions found if you follow this sequence of pages in the Photobucket Help system:
Photobucket Help -> Sharing and Linking -> Linking Original Size Images (full resolution)

where you will see the following which does do the job:

To link out your full size images (images larger than 1024×768):
1. Go to UPLOAD page
2. Click on the gear wheel icon (top right of panel)
3. Check the option to “Display my linked photos in their original sizes”.
4. Click Save

This will append the ~original addition to your link codes, which allows them to be displayed in the full resolution and image as intended.

Hope this helps

The best solution is always to link to the images on a hosting site such as Flickr or Photobucket.

Could also depend what ISP you are using.

Are you trying to load them directly into the forum or are you trying to insert a link to a photohosting site lke Photobucket?
