Is this temporary? Are you trying to upload an image directly to Eurobricks, or are you trying to link to one? I just tried to upload a picture, and it gave me a message saying that the limit is 92.16kb. 😕 Edited December 19, 2021 by Classic_Spaceman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was trying to "drag" a picture here, as usual. That's what I've always done but this started happening yesterday Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Robert8 Posted December 19, 2021 (edited) But dragging a pic works for you? Edited December 19, 2021 by Robert8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am using an iPad, so there is no "dragging", but if you are referring to uploading an image that is stored on my device, no, it does not seem to work for me.

No, it's not new. You should not be uploading pictures directly to EB unless you are staff. The amount of space we provide is for avatars. 17 hours ago, Classic_Spaceman said: Are you trying to upload an image directly to Eurobricks, or are you trying to link to one? I just tried to upload a picture, and it gave me a message saying that the limit is 92.16kb. 😕 The amount of space allocated changes with your rank and the amount of space you've already used. So you've probably uploaded less previously so you have more left. 17 hours ago, Robert8 said: I was trying to "drag" a picture here, as usual.

Drag and drop features are managed by the browser. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I tried with Edge and it shows the same message I tried with a different laptop with both Chrome and Edge and the same message still appears Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darkdragon Posted December 20, 2021 I can tell you nothing changed with EB and drag and drop are features of the browser so I'm sure that whatever is going on you'll just need to change your workflow. It's really not going to be something on my list of things focus on since the normal way of copy/paste a deep link works perfectly. Hopefully you can manage to find a browser that works the way you'd like or just get use to doing it the way the rest of us do Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TeriXeri Posted December 20, 2021 (edited) Linking an image and then clicking it to downsize it works great for me, people can still click the image to see full size but it won't take pages to scroll down. Edited December 20, 2021 by TeriXeri Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And now I can't drag and drop pics here which is something I could do before. Its been like that since the froum moved to Invision... until now Very confusing but it works like that now Edited December 29, 2021 by Darkdragon Image too large Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The 1024 rule isn't for size visually but it's for size because some users are not on fast speed connections. I can assure you that the software the forum is running on was not changed so it must be related to your browser or computer that things are working differently all of a sudden.
