PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

10. "RE: Yep you can use HTML to resize..." |
Aha! I figured there must be some way to do it but didn't consider dropping the http: header. Thanks, Ice!And for Sophie, here's a view of how it's done: {img src="//www.sobi.org/photos/Cat/Greek/DelphiCats_009.jpg" width="240" height="300"} Just change the curly brackets to regular brackets (the same brackets you get when NOT holding the shift key to get the curly brackets). The address you put for the picture is EXACTLY the address you'd use without resizing, except you remove the "http:"; portion. You can also just set the height OR the width instead of specifying both, and the dimension not set will be resized automatically. The width is given in pixels, which are itty bitty teeny tiny. As an example of pixel size, my sig pic is 60 pixels high.

12. "RE: Pictures for Dummies" |
This is not an answer for Sophie.This is another picture posting question. Although BuckyKatt explained how to upload pictures from your own files, of which, I totally understand how to do.
That is how I was able to do so, in the beginning. Yet, I have not been able to do that for some time now.
I also hear that vols is suffering from the same problem. For instance, I try to upload picture from my files, but instead of getting an SB address, I get an error message.
SCRIPT ERROR!!!
There was an error in processing your request.
Following is the error message:
Script Message: cgi-lib.pl: Unknown Content-type: MULTIPART/FORM-DATA; boundary=----------IglUF4ap4XCtJClsT1WIRH
System Message:
Please notify the administrator of this site. Thank you. What can I do to change this?
What does the "IglUF4...etc..." thing mean? The only way I can post pictures, now, is to copy and paste the image address, directly from the site, into my post.
Which tends to get into sketchy territory. Some folks don't like the direct links, blah blah blah. Any, blue peeps with some answers?

I wish it were that easy. But, as you probably already have found out, if you try to upload, to SB, an image file that is too large, the message will simply tell you that your file size is too large.
If you try to upload a jpg, and end up clicking on gif instead. The message will simply tell you that the file type is wrong.I have never before had such a enigmatic message when trying to upload images before. Thanks for the response IAMHE but, I'm afraid my problem is more involved than just file size.

LAST EDITED ON 08-02-04 AT 03:57 AM (EST)LAST EDITED ON 08-02-04 AT 03:28 AM (EST) I actually think I might have figured this out. I used to have InternetExplorer as my default browser. I have since changed to Opera.
When I tried to access SB through IE, I was finally able to upload pictures from my own files, again. So now it seems the problem is actually one of my new browsers problems.
I will be contacting them and maybe soon I will once again be able to upload.

16. "Do you have a firewall enabled?" |
If so, try the uploading process again with the firewall disabled.

18. "Pictures for Other Dummies" |
I just uploaded a picture and then failed to take note of the URL. Now it is gone. Where can I find this or will it be deleted after a while? The upload was deemed successful, I just made the erroneous assumption that it would show up in my post. I needed to copy in the URL and didn't. I am a moron. Please help.

That wouldn't be as entertaining! It's more fun to just bump a thread and then make snarky remarks.....*Not that I would ever do such a thing though!

then the file you tried to upload was too big. Reducing the photos size should help.
