Hi Pagan,

Strange & a tad gruesome, but I can see the pix (for now ;>)

For those curious, before I delete this, here is what I think goes wrong:

If you are posting photos from your phones or whatnot, your default resolution is probably something wicked sharp and you're trying to upload files over 1 mb. For today's phones, that's typically 2 to 3 mb per photo, higher if your setting is on super duper high resolution. So I am guessing Houzz tries to automatically resize it down to a more manageable file size. The photo above (Mordin Solus) is about 280 kb.

So, either resize your photos first. There's an option in the "edit" menu that allows saving for web and mobile devices.

Or, when you start a thread, wait for the photo to load completely before you click the "submit" button, otherwise it will interrupt the resizing going in the background and it will only post the text.

You will know it has loaded completely when the picture turns bright instead of blurred/screened. On Android/Linux anyway. Then you can click "submit". It takes a few seconds to a minute on a mobile phone.

This totally off-topic thread will disappear when I get back in about 15 minutes.

I posted pictures from my tablet this morning with no trouble but did have trouble correcting some of my text. It just would not work. I submitted then went back and edited it. That worked.

Pagan: my pictures are transported from the camera to the computer. There I resize them and if needed I convert them below 1 mb. Further: I tried the editfunction, but no succes. I think I used all options, but no one worked.

It's a bit irritating, but that's it. As they say here: a fire is worse.

thanks and greets

Harry

Its weird, but I have few if any problems uploading images. I post from my phone constantly and post from my computer, pulling them down from Google Photos. And yes, I use a Chromebook.

Mass effect pic lol. Too bad the game series died like my ferocactus viridiscens.

I've waited plenty long for the photo to be uploaded and still had it not post. I do that for comments and it usually works. With hard drives being so cheap now, I can't imagine them trying to reduce size like the old days.

Pagan, if you don't like watering more than once a week, I can't imagine you reducing all of your photos. :) I know I won't be. In the old days I was waiting for a time when I wouldn't have to do that.

Once i got it figures out,i've been doing ok posting,but it only lets me post 4 at a time,but once in awhile more.Wish they'd get it together once and for all.
