New way to upload photos.

I forgot to mention this, I just upgraded the forum for a better way to upload photos/attachments.

I'm on the phone and can't explain it properly or show examples but if Todd sees this he may be able to explain better.

He's been wanting this for years...lol

Whats the limit AB?

This is for PC only and photo's from your computer,

Select "Go Advanced"
Select the paper clip Icon ( Attachments ) this will take you 2 the File upload manager
Select "Add Files"
Select "Browse" this will open the file upload screen, open where your photo's are kept on the computer

2 Select multiple photo's in a row select the first photo then hold down the "Shift Key" on your keyboard and then select the last photo then select "Open" this will take you back 2 the File upload manager. Select "Upload"

2 Select multiple photo's that are not in a row select the first photo then hold down the "CTRL Key" on your keyboard and select the next photo keeping the "CTRL Key" down, keep doing this until you have selected the last photo then select "Open" this will take you back 2 the File upload manager. Select "Upload"

Something like that anyway :)

Thanks AB, although while my Patrol is not likely 2 ever go back on the road its about 2 year 2 late for me :(

@Plasnart can you do a test 4 me please when you have time

Take a portrait photo the way you normally would, then rotate your phone 180 degrees and take the same photo, upload them both without rotating

Let's see what happens here. First one is portrait. Second one is landscape orientation when taken.

Don't give me the pain in the ass solution as not only will it go straight over my head, but I couldn't be stuffed doing it! I'll just take pics in landscape to post up.

Problem solved!! Thanks mate!! :D

It's a new lappy and I think it's Windows 10. Don't resize anything. Just download from the phone to the hard drive then upload to forum from there.

Yeah I know how to resize and that'd probably help.

All good.

Hey mate, nah we should be able to upload up to 20mb photos as we had issues on our photo threads from good quality cameras putting out 10-15mb images so we thought stuff it and maxed it pretty high.

Just right click on an image you have taken in portrait and select edit it should open paint by default, if it does just select resize and just go 50 x 50 percent, go file, then save as and rename ( so you don't loose any image quality on the original ) and then upload and see if that fixes your issue.

I done a quick test and it worked for me
