Problem posting photos?

Laurel, DE(Zone 7a)

I just made a new thread, but if I try to upload more than 1 pic (up to 5 enabled) I get booted to the forum list page? Are we having problems?
I am able to post just 1 photo, but just tried again to post 4 and was booted to the list of gardening forums?

no problems that I'm aware of - what size are your pic files?

The usual and the first one will post, just won't take the others and it has in the past?
I can post one:

but when I try to add 4 more on another thread or the original, I get bumped to the community forum list? I haven't done anything different than in days past?

I just tried again and after about 1 min. got booted to the community forums. I tried to upload 4 more photos to that above thread?

Did you add text to the message box? I just uploaded four photos to a new thread in the test forum without any hiccups or problems.

I'll try again this morn. Yes I did add text?

Shucks, just tried again and the same thing happened. After about 1 minute of loading they appear to time-out and the page jumps to the list of forums. I'll try rebooting the computer and try again.

Rebooted and tried again and still the same thing happening. I'll try to add just 2 pics and see what happens.

I was just able to upload 2 at a time, but any more than that and they time out and go to the forum list. I am still using the same camera and resolution as always? I am able to upload multiples on other sites? Any suggestions,. my pics are just 2448x3264 pixels? Same as always.

Those are really big pics. Try resizing them to no more than 1000x800 or even better, 800x600. My guess is that may be the problem - the system is trying to scale back four or five pictures at once and that's going to slow things down enough to time out.

I'll try that Terry. They uploaded fine in the beginning, now only able to upload 2 at a time. Thanks for the info. See, I'm still learning even after all these years lol!!!
