One small tip:
If you click on  an image to put it in the image box, the scaling of the full-sized image may be a bit slow (it takes a while for the magnifying glass cursor to appear).

If you right-click on the image and open in a new tab, the full-sized image will be loaded instantly.

I am trying to post additional images in the Leica R / DMR / images  thread but they repeatedly reject e.g. :

DMR-R8Hillside_8626.jpg

2 mb · Upload Failed

 

Images are resized to 2480 'longest side' . My Premium membership s/b OK ... does not expire until 16 June . Is there a limit as to the number of images i can post n this thread? Or is there another problem I'm unaware of?  Any advice appreciated . Thank you.

EDIT: I can upload small files ... but not 2480 pxl longest side?

No limit, so you should be able to post ok. 

Are you trying to put more than one image in each post?

Andy, I just tried to post a 2480 longest side 2MB image in the M9 images thread and it too was rejected ... but same image was accepted as a 1000 pixel longest side 459KB ... but I did not post the latter. It's as if my Premium membership has somehow lapsed ... Premium membership was paid 16 June 2020.  

Could the anomaly be linked to my Classifieds post? Problems commenced yesterday after posting a Classifieds advert ... not immediately ... and maybe coincidental

With regard to problems uploading more than one image in one post (something I reported earlier in the "12th March Forum update" thread) no matter what I try, the second image is deemed to exceed the Premium membership limits. Example given in that thread but basically trying to upload two 2480px jpg's each of circa 900Kb fails due to total size.  A frustration which leads me to uploading them to Flickr then pasting links into the post.

There is an issue with images with large dimensions and fine details:

Though the file size is under the limit such images can become too large when being re-rendered during the upload process.

I've increase the file size to 2.500 kB for members (was 2.000) and 5.000 for Premium members.

Please try again – if it still doesn't work please contact me via PM, and I'll try it out with the concrete image.

Thanks Andreas.  In the forum software update thread post #121 I included a screenshot that showed that a 955Kb jpg was shown as 1.5Mb after upload!  I will try out the new settings on Monday but I would think the new limits should allow (at least) two images per post.

Thank you Andreas ... will try when I have some new images to post ... none available at the moment ... had to downsize those I have to 1000 pxl and 950kb in order to post ... but this was before reading your latest advice

Reference post #47, I just tried an upload of two files in one post (admittedly only 550Kb & 950Kb) and they uploaded OK, which IIRC is the first time I've been able to insert more than one image in a post without resorting to Flickr links.  Thanks for addressing the issue, Andreas.

I like the new, narrower width of the forum web pages. It makes the image previews look sharper, because they need less upscaling. 👍

Well, today we were back to full width again. 🙄 I loved when they were narrower. The text was better to read too, with shorter lines.

Since the inlined images are of low quality (click to see best quality), can we make them smaller? A large blurry image is aesthetically not pleasing.

They were for a short while. But I think I was the only one who appreciated it.

Same resolution + smaller size = sharper image

Lately, when selecting images from the iPhone from the iCloud photo library, I can no longer get the display of the different images sizes to allow the upload to the forum. In the past I would see multiple sizes like small, medium, large and original - and typically even large would work. Since these scaling options are no longer shown, the forum rejects all my images. 
 

Does anyone else see this issue? Not sure whether it exists since iOS 17. 
 

Thanks,

Erik
