Not working for me either I'm afraid.

It reports "Image Successfully Uploaded and the tags have been added to the form below. Please close this box to return to your post"

But there's no tags produced.

The image is 200k, running FF 3.6.3 on Vista HP.

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-GB; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 Firefox/3.6.3 ( .NET CLR 3.5.30729)

Thumbsnap is saying 2MB, but I'm having trouble with 1.1MB.

We'll have a chat to the chaps from thumbsnap and see if they know what is happening.

Sorry about the problems, we have been making some server software changes to handle the ever-growing traffic and the recent glitches (including the slightly less than 1MB upload limit) was a result of this.

I just tested the upload function here and it should be working fine now and you should be able to handle photos upto 2MB in size.

You will need to describe what is happening when you try to upload pics. Any error messages etc.? How large (in Kb or Mb) is the file?

You wouldn't call your car garage or mechanic and just say "My car isn't working..." and expect them to know exactly what's wrong, would you? smile
