Can't add attachment???

[Lord Scooter]

I'm trying to add an attachment, but it keeps saying:

Error: This forum has exceeded its attachment space limit. Your file cannot be uploaded.

Do the mods need to fix this issue? I want to post a photo of me toying around with Wildwood Story, but it won't let me!

Hi!

To post a photo, you'll need to upload it somewhere that will host the image. Try imgur.com

When you get the picture uploaded there, right click it and click "Copy image address". Come back here with the link and paste it in a post. If you want the picture to show instead of the link, post it with this:
[img]paste image address here[/img]

Let me know if you need more help.

Got it to work!

It took me a minute at first to realize that clicking the "copy link" wasn't what you meant.  Once I realized that I needed to right click the image, and that was where "copy image address" was located, everything worked just as you said it would.

Thanks!

Glad you got it to work. There's something else you could do to make it to where it doesn't take up a lot of the page if it's a large image.

1. When you go to make a post, click the reply button so it takes you to where you see all the options to edit text. Put the [img] tags and the link in the post.

2. From there, make sure it starts you on the BBCode tab. Switch it to the preview tab and then back to BBcode.

Doing so should cause the text to change from
[img]https://i.imgur.com/V7xtL1V.jpg[/img]
to
[img src="https://i.imgur.com/V7xtl1V.jpg" style="max-width:100%"]

(if this doesn't happen the first time, it might take another try but it will work)
3. You'll want to change the 100 to something less than that. You can switch the tab back and forth between Preview and BBcode and play with the numbers.


4. Completing these steps will result in this (I used your image to show)


Not completely necessary but it's another tip . I hope my screenshots helped make it make sense.
