It appears the number and size of attachments we can store has been reduced. I had 2.5+ MB of attachments, try to add two more and it says my max is now 1 MB? Really? Is this 1993 all over again?

I'd have to delete half my pictures to add a new one. This is new because I added a bunch of pics earlier this week and didn't hit any limit. WTF?

Edit: zoom44 fixed it! Thanks!

 

There's nothing the Mods or Admins can do about this.

 

yup had this happen to me the other day.

so much for creating DIYs

 

Not even ask IB why? And why there was no notice? Are they trying to kill the forums?

Don't misunderstand me, I know you guys are in the middle, but sure seems like they are squeezing ever harder. What with the ads on pictures, then viglink garbage, now drastically cutting attachment space.

Will IMG links now be allowed in the DIY section?

 

ill find out whats up

 

Yeah, I ran into the same thing yesterday. Was trying to post a picture to help someone in debugging an issue with their car...............and no joy!

 

Tell them we're considering getting a movement started to transition everyone over to rcc. They'll appreciate that, Al / Zoom.

 

mama mia - this SUCKS !!!!!

 

Yes...............it does!!!!!

Trying something here as a test, will delete in a few moments...............if I can even attach it!


Nope, won't attach...............says the puny file(772 KB) I was trying to attach is 78.86 MB over my limit...........wth?

What is our new limit, and AL............if we are forced to start deleting all our old attachments, there are a ton of threads that will just go to hell......won't they?

 

this has got to be an oversight as a result of the new roles going in.

Whatever the limit is it's less than 27mb.... clearly less than the 79mb you've used up, Mazurfer.

 

I went through and deleted a bunch of old attachments before i realised ....................


The limit is 1Mb . Virtually means ..... no more attachments !!!!!

 

^......................Yep, I mean I could go back and see what all I could delete without wreaking absolute havoc(don't feel I have that many BS pictures, but there are a few),
but if everyone had to do this..........we would simply have an implosion and this site wouldn't even be worth logging into.
All the DIY's would just go bye-bye..........etc.

I was trying to help someone out earlier and couldn't post a pic, so I had to go and see where there was one I might be able to link him to.

 

FIXED!!!:D

it was my fault. when i made the new regular member user group i needed to make that limit 0 in order for you to not run into the default limit.

 

...

i mean that sucks Brettus. :/ hopefully nothing we needed

 

Thank you zoom44!

 

Ah yes....................been out of town last few days...................glad to see it got fixed.
