Title: Topics Problems
Post by: Ehks on June 24, 2009, 06:24:26 pm
Guys every time i write a TOPIC i can't add pictures because if i add a picture to it and press submit a white page appears and if i tried refresh it get me back to writing the topic or sometimes says " Error You already submitted this etc.. " but i check and guess what ? its not submitted.. is it a forums problem cause i had it from a 6 months here and then it got fixed by it self.. please tell me and if you don't understand what i mean tell me so i try to upload a picture about whats happening and by the way i asked a player to post me this topic and i told him my problem and guess what again.. he had the same problem so... i hope you reply soon

PNG or JPEG? If possible use ALWAYS JPEG.

I figured out how to solve the problem. I think it's because the site needs to check the image to see if it needs resizing and sets the size code appropriately. The check fails with larger images, so to avoid this, just make sure you use the full image code.

By this I mean using:
[img width=xxx height=yyy]ImageAddress[/img]

Instead of:
[img]ImageAddress[/img]

Could you give a link to the image you're trying to display?

There are three possible problems.
1. the image file is too large, try a smaller one.
2. due to your connection upload time is too long.
3. the image has script content and is there for refused

Are you making a totally new post or adding (using modify) to an existing post that already has other images or mass text on it?

I tried modifying it but didn't work so i tried to start a new topic and copied what i want from the other topic and added it with pictures and ended it but still didn't work.

Every picture is loaded separate, there for a single one might work but a number of pictures can cause a timeout.

So you saying no solution?

I can confirm this - and using [img] tags does not upload anything to the Argonath server; it's hosted elsewhere, such as Photobucket or Imageshack, then displayed here.

Then What should we use?

Did you do the full [img] tag for all the images or just the last one?

Lol, he is saying that if you use only a single picture with all the stuff in it, not like 3-4 it might work better.

Well, I used four PNGs from imageshack using the full code and it worked fine, not to mention that it posted almost instantly. Though using just the short code on a single picture, regardless of the rest, lead to the submission of the post hanging until it failed at a white screen.

Uhhhh... Fix your code, all I see is:

Did you do the full  for all my pictures..[/font]

Though checking your actual code, I see this:
"I use [img][/img] for all my pictures.."

Anyway, when I ask if you use the FULL, I'm referring to inclusion of specifications for the width and height. If you're not including them in every picture, it's not going to work.

The link stays the same, just make sure to include the width and height (you must aquire xxx and yyy by yourself), which you must add manually. If it's not working, you must be doing something wrong, because doing this fixed all such problems I had.
