Why can't I?

Get the following message

The upload folder is full. Please try a smaller file and/or contact an administrator

This happens on my & other posts. The image is only 65Kb

I would really appreciate it if someone could get to the bottom of this.
Thanks,

Craig

log out from the forum, go the gallery and log in from there, that works for me.

yes best use gallery at the moment - I'm try to get hold of Grimjack, but he's not replied to my emails. Unfortunately I can't access that upload folder.

Thanks,

I can upload to coppermine, but when I come back here I still can't.

Will wait

Thanks for your help,
Craig

alternative - why not host images on e.g. imageshack.us and put the link between {img} and {/img} except with [] brackets instead of {} brackets and it'll show your pic ;)

so, {img}yourimageurlhere{/img} will produce a picture.

Hey orange, what email address are you sending too?  I don't recall seeing anything...

I'll look into this shortly, looks to be a permissions issue with the upload directory.  Most everyone uses coppermine, which is not the same thing as the built in attachments feature.  I didn't even realize this was still enabled, to be truthful!

I found the email.  I don't check that address very often... I'll send you a better one.

Ok, this is 'fixed'.  Well, delayed, anyway.  What happened is that we ran out of room for attachments hosted by the forum software itself.  I've cleared some room, which will allow these for a while longer, however, eventually we will run out again.

I'd encourage everyone to use the Coppermine installation (or an external picture archive like photobucket) for pictures you care about - you can delete your own photos, making for less maintenance for the staff.

Let me know if you run into any more problems.
