Troubles uploading pictures for member news

Submitted by Jacana on

Just wondering how to fix this...

I can upload the thumbnailes ok. I go to the news add that. Then I went to upload the large pictures and had troubles.

I found that if I uploaded 5 images that the page would give me a 505 error.

If I uploaded 4 images it said it was uploaded and complete. But when one of the thumbnails was clicked on it would not display the corrosponding large image - just the friendly little red x.

Also, Joel helped me get the images the right size etc so I do not think its an issue with the images themselves.

Just checked out what you uploaded:

70_TIME_in-game01.jpg
70_TIME_in-game01_L.jpg
70_TIME_in-game02.jpg
70_TIME_in-game02_L.jpg
70_TIME_in-game03.jpg
70_TIME_in-game03_L.jpg
70_TIME_in-game04.jpg
70_TIME_title-menu.jpg
70_TIME_title-menu_L.jpg

The larger images shouldn't have the "_" characters in there.. the correct way to name them would be:

70_TIME_in-game01.jpg
70_TIME_in-game01L.jpg
70_TIME_in-game02.jpg
70_TIME_in-game02L.jpg
70_TIME_in-game03.jpg
70_TIME_in-game03L.jpg
70_TIME_in-game04.jpg
70_TIME_title-menu.jpg
70_TIME_title-menuL.jpg

btw, these thumbnails were over 3k, so were truncated..

Not sure what the 505 error is - did it say antyhing about a script time out error? That might happen if you upload a tonne of large images with a dialup modem.. the asp code would actually time out if the upload takes too long. You can always go back and reupload what's missing.
