Help needed - Image uploads
« on: November 15, 2008, 11:53:50 PM »
Hi, I have been trying to upload images to my account through the upload images section. But it won't work and gets the error "Error: Couldn't create file to save upload". The images are less the 150Kb (around 50K) and 640x480.


Any suggestions/help much appreciated.


Thanks.

Junkie what file format are the pictures in?  jpg? bmp?


Are the pictures files using "simple" names?  i.e. 'bluestator1' 'bigmagnetsetup2'  Keeping the file names simple will help you down the road when it comes to putting the pictures in a post and it helps sorting the files.

Junkie I noticed your Diary posting on the thermoelectric usb charger.  Try renaming your files without any spaces and see if they will then upload to fieldlines.


As an example, TEG FAN 1.JPG, rename to TEGFAN1.JPG... it should upload with that name.

Hi, thanks for the help. I tried various names but it still refuses to allow the uploads. It doesn't make sense I have uploaded images in the past with no problems.


Thanks anyway
