When I try to open threads with pics they won't load. Eds and Glens both just sit there antagonizing me :pout:.
It is you and your computer :nono:

It most likely is but funny it only happens here. :shrug:
Give me a specific link that this happens on for you
:confused: Just a thought Barry. Maybe Jim can help too. :shrug: If you're on dial up they might be too big. :shrug: Whatcha think Jim??
BTW-- the story just aint the same without the pics so if you want I can print them & mail them to you Barry. :nono: :nono:
Maybe we can figure something out here for you. :yoyo: :yoyo:

Them's the ones. I just got back here and they still only load a portion of one pic then it just sit's there. :shrug:
:confused: Hmmmmmm
Can you tell me what the other threads with pics do for you Barry? You said threads with pics dont load, Glens and Eds just set there. What do the others do?
This morning them two threads just loaded right up :confused:. I suppose I need some super duty new whiz bangy fundamentally challenged space aged electronic gadgetry that I ain't got the resources to know about :pout:.
Jim all the other threads opened right up :shrug:.
I'm thinking those pics are too big. Maybe I'll look at my camera & see if I can shoot smaller ones.

I'm thinking those pics are too big.
I thought the forum automaticly resized the pics? :confused:
pixel wise,, byte wise or whatever it is that they use to tell the size of them,, i think they are too big. :shrug:
The board still resizes them but I'm wondering if Barry's computer times out waiting for them.
Also, be it known that resized pictures arent just resized when you post them, they are resized every time someone looks at that page. The only way they could be reloaded forever after that is if they were actually stored here on the server.
So since the board is set for pics bigger then 600x600, every time it loads a pic larger, it retrieves it from whereever, photobucket, etc....resizes it and displays it to the viewer....each time it is asked to.
Barry's machine might be timing out before it's done. And yes the larger the image the longer it will take.
I used to have no limit set on it, but some people would post pics straight from their cameras which would be larger then a twin bed sheet if you printed them, 3000 pixels by 3000 pixels, and almost as many megabytes as Windows® XP itself. :laf:
Every time someone posted one it would blow the sides out of the forum template and anyone trying to read that thread had to scroll from side to side for 7 days and 6 nights to be able to read it. :doh2:
These images can be clicked on now inside the topic too, which blows them back up to the queen bed sheet size.
