Image uploads are now enabled

[Sigmaz]

If you haven't been under a rock you already know I have been trying to get the onsite upload feature working.

Well... it's working...

When you post a message you should now see an 'upload attachment' box below your message composition box.

you can now click on Browse and locate the image you'd like to upload to the post.. Once located, you may enter a simple comment in the file comment box and click 'Add the file'

the images will be posted to the bottom of your message.

if you wish to thread images through out your message you will need to take an additional step and place the image 'inline'.

Neat paint job.

this option will become available after the first image has been uploaded.

If anyone savvy with power point or another presentation medium feels the desire to write up an instructional slide show, that would be greatly appreciated. (not necessarily you Steven)

Feel free to start testing and breaking this feature, it's something everyone can benefit from so lets try to find all the bugs...

There are a few formatting issues I'll still have to tweak but it is running...

Enjoy.
...and thanks for your patience..

Tapatalk imaging is still buggy.

If anyone gets tapatalk to post let me know.

My client returns an error on upload attempt.

[2stroketurbo]

hmm. all I get is :

The image file you tried to attach is invalid

[blackmarketpandas]

testing...

[2stroketurbo]

hmmmm test

[2stroketurbo]

more testing

[2stroketurbo]

hmmm. won't let me upload Hi Res pix

[2stroketurbo]

yep, won't do hi res pix over 4mb

[Sigmaz]

There is still more tweaking to be done..

[Sigmaz]

I just reset the maximum size to 'unlimited'...

If it doesn't work this time it's probably because the hosting provider doesn't have imagemajick online. (Used by forum s/w for image manipulation)..

Extremely cool feature. Here I am wishing I was elsewhere...

Testing, testing....1-2-3.....

Got red error message:

"The image must be at least 0 pixels wide, 0 pixels high and at most 640 pixels wide and 480 pixels high. The submitted image is 2560 pixels wide and 1920 pixels high."

FYI, I did the post and picture above using my phone's camera and browser. Couldn't work out tapatalk.

Yes - that must be the key!

[books1]

Trying again..... smaller image....

Nup!

"The image must be at least 0 pixels wide, 0 pixels high and at most 640 pixels wide and 480 pixels high. The submitted image is 580 pixels wide and 568 pixels high."

So I try again, after shrinking the image YET AGAIN.....

Whoa! Nice button.

Its in great shape.
Is that a reproduction, or from a museum?

[2stroketurbo]

you never comment on my button...

[Sigmaz]

Another shameless plug....

Um..... stolen from Yahoo Japan pics....

[Sigmaz]

Thief!

So umm... you certainly caught up on your post quota.

Lol! Glad to see you're back from 'holiday'

[books1]

I think I had in mind that the image was good enough to get reproductions from at a later date.....
