Handy New BBS Upgrade - Help me test in this thread...

[Wayne 962]

After hearing about people complain about not being able to resize and fit images so that they could be uploaded, I decided to incorporate a resizing routine into the website. Please help me test it.

The image upload feature should now allow you to post any JPG or GIF image of any size. It will reduce the size of the image on the server, and also constrain it to be 800 pixels wide or less (no biggie pics that crowd the screen).

Try it out please - post your biggie images here.

Very nice feature Wayne!

That image was originaly 1600 x 1200 and about 864k. Now its exactly 800 x 600 and about 76k.

Worked like a charm!

Did not work, this is the error I got

[edit]
I did mine using the attach multiple option, if that is of any help.
