Pictures

Is there anything that controls the uploading time it just seems strange it shows a little pic of it in the corner but doesn’t load the main pic could it be timing out or not communicating with the wanted pic
 
iPad user here. Post 25, the thumbnails are there but clicking gets “image not found”. Post 26, red X and nothing when clicking.

D :cool:
 
Forgive me if this have been done already. Is there any support from XenForo

Yes and no. We only recently got the required permissions to ask XenForo questions.

But we know this isn't a Xenforo software problem. It is a server hosting problem. The server folks gave up trying to solve it quite a while back. We have been trying to find workarounds. We thought we had that using thumbnail uploads but it looks like that isn't working consistently either.
 
Addendum:

Checked DuckDuckGo & Firefox on my iPhone 14+ and Safari on my 2020 M1 MBA, current MacOS = same results as using Safari

Checked Firefox [136.0.2 (aarch64)] on my MBA = I can see both images from @Susquatch second post (#26), but they are BIG; they actually get larger as I zoom out, so it may be an image size issue. It takes a while for the images to load, and I get the tail-chasing-circle when I tap an image, but it eventually does load. I tried downloading using the "Download Button" in Firefox, but it failed (found an "empty" file in the Downloads Folder); then tried right-click "Save Image As" and that downloaded it, but it vanished immediately after appearing on the desktop; however, I found an "empty" copy of that in the Download Folder as well.

Maybe the answer is to ask members to only post photos that are less than 750Kb?

If I'm posting directly from my iPhone, I use Radiant Mobile to crop & adjust, then save to photos; from there I can reduce the file size (just checked: original pic = 3Mb; Radiant adjusted & cropped = 2.9Mb; Reduced File Size via Photos = 322Kb and jpeg rather than HEIC). Extra steps, but if I instead transfer the pic to my MBA for posting (usally after Radiant), I check the size and use Photos Mac to export to jpeg & reduce the file size.
