okay im not sure if its just my lap top or if its maybe since im on wireless internet or if its the site but it takes me a real long time to upload pictures on here. i mean i have no problem uploading on myspace but on this site it takes me a real long time if i can even upload them at all. i just was wondering since i have no problem on some sites with pictures if maybe i wasnt the only one having this problem. or maybe u guys had this problem and figured out a solution. and maybe if it is just a problem im having with this site then maybe i should wait to even try to upload until im on a friend or family members computer. im just a lil frustrated cuz i sat here for half an hour and none of the 8 pictures i tried to upload seemed to work.someone plz help. is it just my problem or is anyone else having a simular issue with this photo uploader?

if the flash uploaders giving u probs try the simple uploader



simple http://www.dreadlockssite.com/photo/photo/new
flash http://www.dreadlockssite.com/photo/photo/newWithUploader
i just tested both they both worked fine
are the pics huge over 10 megs if so thats why
if its a 10 or 12 megapixel amnd u dont use much compression yea they can be pretty big
right click a pic and goto properties and should tell u file size

We got a new digi cam.....Would the pics we take be bigger than 10megs? I don't know that much about the sizes. This camera has a lot of options so it's taking awhile to get used to it
its a combo of things file size big files upload slow and files over 10 megs will fail since theres a 10 meg limmit u can reduce sizes to ipload fasdtrer..but also most connections upload speeds are way slower then download speeds

breeze said:
Yea it is a 12 megapixel......That's probably why it takes a while to upload...Thanks SE
oh ok thnx. ill have to see if i have the options on my camera as well, u said i can reduce the size? can i do this on the camputer or does it have to be through the camera. not real great with that stuff. but thnx alot for the info dudes i appreciate it
either way most cameras u can reduce resolutuiion and incfease compression in cam settings
once on the computer open in any image editor even paint and decrease the size of the picture as a whole or crop it cutting off excess edge stuff

12 megapoxel cameras can take very clkear really huge pictures or u can set it to act like a 3 or 5 megapoxel and the picse will be smaller
a 12 megapixel picture ogf your facfe at actual sizer just your eye can fill the average compuyer screen de[endimg on screen resolution..its great for home pics or pro pics u want to print or whatever but for the web theyres too big for most practicle uses
