Post by: tyler_84 on March 16, 2008, 11:45:34 AM: just make a photobucket account, upload your photos, then copy the img code, and paste it into your description.

Post by: TidoJackson on March 16, 2008, 01:22:09 PM: I already do that. It just annoys me when I know there's a problem.

Is there anything that be done about this, I still can't upload pics and the [img] code seems to be off when I post photobucket links.

I fail at uploading from my computer and directly uploading from photobucket.

From the error message it seems to be something to do with the writing of a temp file.

"Upload failed due to failure writing temporary file."

Post by: sheepdog on May 02, 2008, 02:12:45 PM: I think it is something to do with your guys systems.
Firewalls or something.

Make sure it fits the size requirements, no spaces, no caps, no extra punctuation or any odd symbols. Some of that can be used, but just in case.

Post by: carnage on May 03, 2008, 12:26:40 PM: I don't care so much about the uploading attachments to bikeguide issue, although I am sure it is not a firewall issue with my system as it has worked intermittently (with no changes on my end).

What I would like to understand is why in the posting rules on my threads it says :

-------
vB code is On
Smilies are On
(http:// code is OffHTML code is Off-------Especially the "[IMG] code is Off" bit as that seems to make my [img] tags into links.I had a hypen in the filename so I removed that from the file on my mac and from the photobucket folder name, still no luck.The local file just returned a "failed" message and the upload from photobucket (surely no firewall issues) returns "Upload failed due to failure writing temporary file."The photobucket bb links work fine in other peoples posts - see below, so I am convinced it has to be the posting rules in my threads :([IMG]http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa216/domfucssion/profilehubs/profilehubs.jpg)

Post by: sheepdog on May 03, 2008, 01:48:19 PM: Are you trying to upload from photobucket?
I am not sure exactly whatyou are trying to explain.

And I looked at your permissions, and your usergroup permissions, you are authorized for the img tag, and clearly it works for you. I have no idea why it says you cannot use it.

I was having trouble with photos too. It was only when trying to attach files.

I guess photo bucket or flickr is the answer.

sweet
