I was trying to upload pictures on here but it keeps giving me an error message saying the files are invalid. How do I get them to work?

What format are the pictures? PNG's and JPG's I know will work.

Taken from the FAQ it states...

What files types can I use? How large can attachments be?

In the attachment window you will find a list of the allowed file types and their maximum sizes. Files that are larger than these sizes will be rejected. There may also be an overall quota limit to the number of attachments you can post to the board.


My only guess is that either you're trying to upload an image in a format that the site doesn't support or it's too big. Trying uploading a small jpeg to see if it goes through. If it doesn't... Try logging out, then logging back in. If it still fails then I'm not sure what is going on.

I think I once hit the size limit, but it did give me an error message to that fact.

That might be it. I'll have to check the file size. Thanks everybody.
