attachment mgr. ???

bassfishin · #1 01-25-2008, 11:58 PM

This is a copied attachment mgr. after attempting to upload from my photobucket. The file is 137kb. Tried many times, even with firewall off. Keeps saying invalid file. And why does it show with the bar graph thingy half red when I have not been successful yet?? Thanks
ps: when I preview this post, the pic shows up but it wont if I preview any other post...

Hmm... If it's on Photobucket, why not just put the image full size directly into your post with [img] tags, instead of attaching a thumbnail?

Paul, That is exactly what I'm trying to do. I can add thumbnail attachments with no problem. In photobucket they have the img link below the photo you want to upload. I copy that link to the manager and when I try to upload it gives me an error. Also in my OP, what about the red/green graph doo-hickey? It shows 2/3 red. Thanks

If the image is on the web, don't use the attachment manager - that's just for uploading pics off your hard drive. If it's on the web just put it's url in [img] tags (or just copy that URL from photobucket - it's already got em). The graph displays how much of your quota you've used for attachments. Go to My TalkBass - > Attachments to see them.
