Uploading Pictures To The Gallery For Use On Site
Someone asked earlier today if they could load 'bigger' pictures to their posts?
By this it was meant instead of uploading the picture where a thumb nail has to be used to display the larger picture in a seperate window. The simple answer is yes. :) Before you do however make sure you've read this:- Accyweb Photo Gallery Information That information is over a year old now so with upgrades to the site and the server Roy may well alter some of those spec's, we'll see. Heres how:- Firstly go to the Gallery a link to it can be found at the top of any page. Three buttons, My Photos · My Albums · My Favorites Click My Albums If the album you are going to use hasn't been created yet click Create a New Album Give it a name, for example, My Pictures on site, then click create a new album. After it has been created, under the column actions click upload photos. The first thing on this page to change is Choose a category to upload your images to. I suggest you pick miscellaneous from the list. The next box should already be set for the name you've chosen for this album. So now you can upload your picture, Click Browse, (if you are uploading from your P.C.). Go to where you have saved the picture on your P.C. select the picture, scroll down to upload/submit and the picture will be uploaded. Right it looks more difficult written down than it really is but you will soon get the hang of it. Now you want to use that image in a post don't you? Easy peasy, all you have to do is right click on the image, scroll down to copy Image location, left click and the image is now ready to insert into your post. Go to your post Click on the insert image button, (if you're not sure which one it is just hover your mouse pointer on the symbols until it says 'insert image' then left click, a box will open, put your mouse pointer over it right click and then scroll down to paste and left click.Click the OK button on the box. Your image should now be in place:cool: |

Re: Uploading Pictures To The Gallery For Use On Site
Len and Less, HELP please. It all sounds so easy but I CANNOT get a photo to download. I followed both your instruction, with lens(to a post) it looked like I was downloading a whole file and it ran out of space or capacity or something. Following Less I created my own album, downloaded the photo(at least it said it was doing) but the album is still empty.
Is it the way I save my photos? on Picasa,My Docs and My Pics? Any ideas? Thanks, Gordon |
Re: Uploading Pictures To The Gallery For Use On Site
Gordon, there is a bit of a glitch in the system at the moment......you probably got the message about the picture being too big.
I have not been able to upload to the competition this month or last month......I had to ask Mick to upload my pics. I think Roy is going to try and have a look at the problem when he has a spare moment. I hope this info helps. |
Re: Uploading Pictures To The Gallery For Use On Site
There is a known glitch in the gallery software at the moment the site owner is aware of this and will be looking into it as soon as possible sorry for any inconvenience
if you make your photos about 1000x800 they do seam to go in ok if your still having problems e-mail them to me and i will see if i can get them in for you this only applies to the photo competitions though |
Re: Uploading Pictures To The Gallery For Use On Site
Margaret,Mick, thanks for that. Mick might have found my problem-picture size! I don't think it's the glitch in the system, it was the Hyndburn Park School photo I was trying to download and as I was failing miserably Barrie posted it and said how easy it was! I tried both on a post AND to the gallery, niether worked.A common problem with me and my computer! I'll try again when I've cooled down.

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 7680 bytes) in /home/accringt/public_html/gallery/image-inc.php on line 116
this is the error message if it helps at all - i've also tried resizing and compressing the image but it's still the same cheers matt |
Re: Uploading Pictures To The Gallery For Use On Site
I have made several attempts to upload pictures and I repeatedly get the following error message:
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 9088 bytes) in /home/accringt/public_html/gallery/image-inc.php on line 116 So, do we have a problem Houston? :rolleyes: |
Re: Uploading Pictures To The Gallery For Use On Site
I have only ever been able to post a full size picture on this forum, I am not sure how to post the thumbnail thingy.
The way I do it is to upload my photos to the free site Photobucket, when I want to post a picture on a forum I find the picture I want on Photobucket and click and copy the image code under the photo. Then click and paste it where ever you want to place it in text you are posting. I have hundreds of photos saved in Photobucket and use the above method on three other forums I use, mainly transport or engineering forums. There are other similar sites to Photobucket which will do the same thing and are free, you are able to make different albums for each type of photos. |

Re: Uploading Pictures To The Gallery For Use On Site
Just at the moment you cant upload photos to the gallery as there is a glitch in the forum software and we are waiting for Roy to sort it when he has a bit of spare time sorry
you can upload photos direct to posts in threads though |
Re: Uploading Pictures To The Gallery For Use On Site
I appreciate you may not be in a position to say when the problem will be sorted but will there be an announcement to say when it has?

Re: Uploading Pictures To The Gallery For Use On Site
Uploading Photos to the Gallery and uploading photos to posts are slightly different
have a look through this thread. http://www.accringtonweb.com/forum/f...ples-4719.html |
Re: Uploading Pictures To The Gallery For Use On Site
Ok, how much longer is this problem going to remain unrectified?
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 9088 bytes) in /home/accringt/public_html/gallery/image-inc.php on line 116 And yet I am sure Wadey has managed to post more photos in the last few days. |

The Insert Image via "url" should be disabled if it isn't the way to post, as the reply from Neil to Gremlin stated;) |

I cant help any more on it sorry as I don't have the access rights to look into it |
Re: Uploading Pictures To The Gallery For Use On Site
Thanks for that confirmation, Wadey. I wrongly thought you had posted photos in the gallery lately. Yes, I too am able to include a photo with a forum posting but not to the gallery.
Sorry, neil. I appreciate it's not your problem but wish whoever the responsibility does belong to would sort it. I've loads of photos to upload and miles behind Wadey and Co if I'm ever to catch you up! :D Just invested in Nikon D3000 and what a contrast compared with tiny digital. So, I'm itching to start posting :) |
Re: Uploading Pictures To The Gallery For Use On Site
no doubt he will given time, but roy works all oer the world n is a very busy lad,so yeh will have to suck it n see.:D

Re: Uploading Pictures To The Gallery For Use On Site
Sorry Guys but access rights should never be restricted to just one person. God forbid but what if owt happened to Roy - does the forum shut down? :rolleyes:
On a forum like this there should always be a deputy or second key holder who has the authority or access to put things right when the boss is away. IMO :) |

Re: Uploading Pictures To The Gallery For Use On Site
How do I put picture in posts as thumbnails instead of large images?
Advanced->Insert Image - only gives me an insert URL option. |
Re: Uploading Pictures To The Gallery For Use On Site
Attachments rather than insert image - got it

Go advanced scroll down to Manage Attachments click choose file to select image from your computer, click upload go to preview post to check thumbnail present, double click on thumbnail to see full image.

Re: Uploading Pictures To The Gallery For Use On Site
Hi There,
Just uploaded a photo, everything went ok, except for the fact that I can't expand it i.e. it is not a Thumbnail. What have I done wrong, or what have I missed? any help would be much appreciated. Cheers |
Re: Uploading Pictures To The Gallery For Use On Site
To upload a picture you need to go into the 'advanced' settings for the post.
This can be found under the box into which the text goes...two options...one is 'post a quick reply...the other is 'go advanced'. When you go into that option you get an option to 'manage attachements. From here you can upload a picture from your computer...or from some other URL. Choose the picture from whichever source and then click to upload. Bob's your Uncle. |
Re: Uploading Pictures To The Gallery For Use On Site
I should have said...the 'Manage attachments' is in the box 'attach Files'
Hope this helps. |

If you go into the forum "Accy Photo's" - "Woodnook St Mary's", you will see that I managed to upload a photo. Thanks to your instructions it worked like a dream. Cheers Philip P.S. As soon as I get my holiday photos sorted out, I'll upload one of them to see whether it works again |

Hi Margaret,
Got my photos sorted out much easier than anticipated! The photo below is the beach where we stay on the Island of Zakynthos in Greece. The title is "My private swimming pool"! |

Re: Uploading Pictures To The Gallery For Use On Site
In trouble again!
Having difficulties inserting multiple pictures in a post. I have photos in the gallery, but when I use the “Insert Image” method, it works ok for one photo, but to get a second or third photo, I go back to the gallery, then “copy image location” again, but when I go back to my post, the first picture (with the URL-address) is no longer there! Basically, I think the problem is flip-flopping between the “Gallery” and the post. Does somebody have an easy solution? Cheers Phil Kenyon |
Re: Uploading Pictures To The Gallery For Use On Site
While in the gallery, right click on image, left click on copy image address, go to post you are creating click on http://www.accringtonweb.com/forum/s...nsertimage.gif then right click then paste. repeat for next images.
It helps to have the gallery open in a separate window to your post for easy transfer. |
Re: Uploading Pictures To The Gallery For Use On Site
You beat me to it Less.

To upload the pictures without using the gallery, go to advanced post, scroll down to Additional Options there you will see Manage Attachments click on it. You will see 10 buttons marked Choose File click one of them. Enter the location of your file position on your P.C. Repeat until you have selected all the pics you wish to display. Click the button marked Upload After they are uploaded you can preview post and see if they are now in place as thumbnails if so, post your pics.;) Before you do any of the above, there is an error 500 on site I'll get Roy to sort it. :enough: |
Re: Uploading Pictures To The Gallery For Use On Site

It seems that we can still do links to images from external sites, so if you've saved those pics to say, cloud or if you've pinched them from another site, go to that site and get the link addy then link it to your post. :p |

Re: Uploading Pictures To The Gallery For Use On Site
Please help!
What am I doing wrong? I want to show a photo in my message, but find it impossible! What I've done so far: - Got the photo in "My Pictures" - Right click on the image - Scroll down until "Copy Image Location" - Left Click - Go to my post - Click "Insert Image" (the mountain/sun logo) - Right click - Scroll down until it says "paste" - Left click - Click on the OK button - The message then appears as "(IMG)https:/ etc. etc. Everything ok so far, but when I select "Post Quick Reply" No picture appears! Very frustrating! Please help! Cheers |

Instead of copy image location, try copying the picture url (see attached pic) then paste that into insert image

Re: Uploading Pictures To The Gallery For Use On Site
I`ve just had another look at the thread where you were trying to post pictures and it appears that you are copying the web page address from the address bar at the top rather than the image location, using the picture url should sort it.
