za33photo Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 How does one post photo's , I do not have photo's stored on the web. "Image from url" will not work in my case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LineMartel Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 (edited) Galleries are down currently, so I am assuming this is why you cannot upload. They are updating the site... If you are trying to upload to a comment, you can drag & drop your file like I just did for this post Edited October 7, 2022 by LineMartel 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandy Vongries Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Just a bit ago, I dragged and dropped into Landscape. You do have to click on the reply box and open it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps it does not work for me because I am not a paying member ?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m42dave Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 (edited) I just posted some photos to the Classic Camera forum with no issues, and I am not a paying member. In the reply box, try clicking on "choose files..." then select the image file you wish to upload. Edited October 7, 2022 by m42dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandy Vongries Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 This was done with the Choose file method. I do not believe you have to be a paying member to post. There may be some limitations in respect to Gallery size, but I am not certain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
za33photo Posted October 7, 2022 Author Share Posted October 7, 2022 I just tried again with no luck. I cannot see a "choose file" option , where do I look ?. I am however now getting a message that I have exceeded my "attachment" limit , should I delete some of my attachments to get under the limit , I am hesitant to do this as I might delete photo's in my previous postings. Dunno what to do right now 😖. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandy Vongries Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Here is what you should see. Don't know about the attachment issue. Files I attached today were from a D3 and a D810 with no downsizing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Snell Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 If I saw anything like that it would be an "eureka" moment. I'm in the same position as za33photo. It appears that only "Pros" can post files? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samstevens Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 (edited) I am able to include image using the “add file” function that appears in my response box. Not a pro or a paying member. My guess is that some patience may be required. Sometimes, migration takes time and functions may appear for some before others. I’d give it a couple of days and then, if you still can’t post, I’d start a thread about it or contact admin. Edited October 7, 2022 by samstevens 2 "You talkin' to me?"

Sandy Vongries Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Early days, so far to me, it looks promising. Hang in there a bit while they sort everything out. You can always go to Site Help and message mjensen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niels - NHSN Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Ok - I have to try. Dragged and dropped a 467KB Jpeg file onto the "Drag files here to attach": 1 Niels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niels - NHSN Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 That seemed to work for me. Let me try one hosted on flickr via "Other Media-> Insert media from URL" 1 Niels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine that could be the simple explanation. When I go to manage my attachments I notice that I have only used 16mb of my 488.28mb. (I almost alway post pics hosted off-site on flickr.) The new software apparently has set a personal limit, where the old photo.net didn't have personal limits on thread post attachments (to my knowledge). That may be a challenge to the active No Words posters if this policy is maintained. Edited October 8, 2022 by NHSN 1 Niels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
za33photo Posted October 8, 2022 Author Share Posted October 8, 2022 Ok , now I cannot add any more "reactions" or "likes" to posts. Maybe some re-thinking is required here , I will persist for a little while longer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richard_ Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Just now in the 'Test Posting' section post 2 full sized pics; simply dragged from my computer pic folder. However was unable to delete them in 'Edit'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Further to the above. Is there no way I can get my question answered? I find that I have now lost permission to use the "site help" forum and feel that there must be others in my position that wish to participate but cannot do so. So I'll ask again HOW DO I BECOME A "p.net PRO"? Or perhaps free up attachments? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricochetrider Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Hmmm.. I cannot drag n drop photos here any more. I "work" on my phone quite a lot and often post out of my phone's photo library. Since I'm probably not gonna upload every phone pic to a host site (Zenfolio in my case), the number of shots I put up may be greatly reduced without this seemingly simple function. That said, I've been admonished for posting large files, which were all posted in this fashion. To remedy this, I've been sure to post "thumbnails" and/or reduce file sizes. I prefer to be able to right click on photos to enlarge them- but I guess that capability depends on how they were posted in the first place, as not all photos can be enlarged in this manner. In any case, I'm sure this will get sorted out sooner or later. All in all, the new site looks and feels great, and I've used it on my phone and desktop (both Mac, btw) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the time being, have you tried “choosing” the photo from you phone’s library? When you respond to a thread, you should see at the bottom of the response box a “choose file” link. That’s how I’ve posted photos so far. Edited October 9, 2022 by samstevens "You talkin' to me?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
