Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Tapatalk Problem w/ Attached Pics in Ads
When using Tapatalk to create ads, when photos are attached the forum software doesn't set up a photo to the left of the ad in the main list. I've attached a picture of what I mean.

Looking at the ad entitled "Pair of stardust diamonds", I am not seeing the author using the file attachment function to attach a photo to their ad in that manner. Without using that "attach" function, no, there will not be an image displayed as a thumbnail for the ad.

I have a pair of RPDs up for sale for the time being anyway. Pair was produced by Dave Sutton in 2015 and purchased by me last year. Both are on FT rats and just came out of cooling. They have been cooled every year and grown slow as diamonds should be. Both can be handled with no problems. I will only sell as a pair. Both are pure Cypress Creek x Geb Bailey and came form Dave's pure stock from 2003. This pair is 3k shipped with in the US.[IMG]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190223/69f7bab94d2c8c43634b65c1b98b56c5.jpg[/IMG][IMG]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190223/8c2400249d40658a33c7ace07b3e9338.jpg[/IMG]

Although the two images state they are "uploaded", they are in reality only embedded as IMG codes within the ad text itself. They MUST use the attachment function for the thumbnail operation to work.

Makes sense. I don't have Tapatalk installed so I can't test the difference between the two.

Rich, there have been recurring upload failures for attaching photos yesterday into today. I was able to help some members last night, but now it is not even letting me do so in my own posts. Not sure what has changed, as my manner of attaching has not changed. I am wondering if the automatic resizing that used to occur might not be functioning as well as before, but that is a shot in the dark on my part.
"Upload of file failed."
That is the message I get in the attachment window.
Not on Tapatalk, btw. Plain old Windows PC. Which, yes, I have restarted. lol

Well, I guess I'll try my own uploads and see what happens....

Well, those seemed to work.
What can you tell me about the files you were trying to upload, Nick? Location specific, maybe? Size?
All four of the above images were 800x533 pixels, file size varying from 40.9KB to 111.3KB.
Windows 10 desktop PC.

Hmm, both appear to have been uploaded. What is interesting is that the first one exceeds one dimension of the chart shown, yet the program didn't yelp nor reject the attempt to upload it.
Let me try a REALLY large image and see what happens.

Well, the image I tried to upload was 8256x5504 pixels, 15.6 megabytes in size. The upload failed, with this message displayed:

The images were 3.37MB to 3.40MB, but that would previously never cause me any problems and the process of uploading would have the site software automatically resize them into the 400kB+ range (which was convenient since it meant not having to resize them before uploading). I am guessing that is no longer within the tolerance of the automated resizing (if there is still automated resizing). The upload failure is new and is affecting others as well, so I do not think it is anything specific to my PC.
Windows 8 (I know, I know). Files are jpeg images from my SD card from my camera (Nikon Coolpix P900).
Update while typing this:
I just did a very quick resize to what a program claimed was 50%, which put them at 1.10MB to 1.12MB and tried to upload those. That worked - as in the site was able to automatically resize the images during the upload process as it used to for me with files 2X-3X the size.
Based on this, I am concluding that my thought of resizing tolerances having been lowered is likely correct. This may take extra steps for people now, as I know my camera and my phone take much larger images than 1MB (my real camera takes them at 3MB+ with defaults in place and I looked at a photo my phone was used to casually take a few days ago and that image was 5.60MB with default settings). It is not a big deal for me and will only slow things down very slightly when I want to put images into an ad or other post, but people who are not used to digging into their phone image manipulation settings and use their phones as their primary internet devices *might* have to figure some stuff out to get file sizes down to where the site's automated resizing achieves what it used to with larger files. This is not a complaint, but an observation. If people keep asking me, I will tell them to resize images first. Then upload.
