Trouble uploading to gallery

[Tizlish68]

I'm having some difficulty uploading to the Gallery. Due to the image size requirements, I'm trying to upload a link from photobucket. At the bottom of the upload page, under Extra Options, I've copied the 'direct link' & "img" link from photo bucket and pasted it to the "retreive all images from a URL" spot on the SSD Upload page. It says then that the images were uploaded/submitted but they aren't showing up in my gallery.

Any help is appreciated...
Thanks
Shelly

Hey Shelly,

I see several layouts from you in the gallery. The most recent was your Paris layout from yesterday. Are you trying to load something else today?

If you make sure to size your layouts to 700x700 and keep the file size down (I can't remember what the limit is... 250kb? Maybe 150? Maybe someone else can confirm...), but you can just load directly. I've never loaded through Photobucket, so I have NO idea how that works.

If you need help with resizing, here is a good tutorial on saving for web that might help.

file size needs to be under 250, i suggest under 245 to allow for oddity.

Like Jennifer said, file make sure your layout size is below 250kb. Hope that works!

Thanks girls! I couldn't check the file size limit since mine is set up differently as admin. I appreciate you guys confirming that for us!

Thanks ladies I'll try it again tonight.

Also, try uploading direct instead of using photobucket or another source. It tends to go much smoother that way.
