Picture upload issues - anyone else?

[David Hodgkins]

It seems like the down loading is also VERY slow. Takes a long time for the pictures to open fully

Really? We are on a new server and the site has been running extremely fast for me.

It's not ridiculously slow, but they don't just pop up.

So I had that same issue (slow uploads) until I shrunk my photos down below 2MB. The post I just did was really quick. Just another point of information.

I have been trying to upload pictures using the exact way I always have. No luck.

That was the issue I was having, same way I always have. No errors and no uploaded pictures. I resized them and it worked. Seems we should get an error saying image too large for upload.

It’s definitely annoying. I’m used to being able to just select photos from my phone without having to resize them. Makes me less likely to post photos

I never had to re-size them before. Has something changed?

Access to all threads take for ever or never for me. I think if the thread has a pic in it, loading it, is taking an unusually long time.
I am down to just checking to see if the site will function correctly and if not moving on.
This is a thread I opened yesterday and it is open this morning, so when I post or move from this thread, it will be in a loading loop.

I purchased an inexpensive photo shrinking app. It's free if you watch ads. It shrinks then deletes the old photos (you have the option to keep both). This has been nice for a couple reasons. First it eliminates and problems I had with uploading errors and second they load really fast now. I have not seen any degradation of quality. This is one of them for example. Quality is fine.

I think the NEW server sucks.

Well jeeze Rich, don't hold back. Tell us how you really feel!

[rich grsc]

Ok David.....it really doesn't work all that good. Better?

[Railroad]

My time on the site has actually reduced. I do not sit and wait on it to load.

I’ve resorted to posting with images on the other forum. It sucks managing two but that site works flawlessly and simply every time.
