Has something changed? Seems like I can only add a file or place a link to a dropbox. In the past we used to be able to embed the image in the forum. Is it just me? Is it the forum? or is it Dropbox?
Dropbox changed their protocols so that embedding images like before no longer works.
The easiest way these days is to switch to "Full Reply Screen" mode and then use the 'File Manger' to upload images. The below link gives a bit more information.
Thanks Jim, but this jpg just does not want to behave. I have tried some other jpg's and they do work well (remembering to hit all the buttons), but this one is a bit naughty.
I believe the UBB threads software limits how large a file size the software will display. My screenshots are normally 35K to 85K bytes. Your keyboard file is about 650K bytes.
Notice the size of your Mid2.jpg is 52K bytes. It displays.
keyboard.jpg is 632kB, I suspect you are correct. Thanks for keeping with it.
Now can you go over to my Sustain pedal thread (I am using smaller size photos over there which are working nicely). I think I am getting close to solving it, but still stuck.
I don't want to hijack your thread, but I'm after similar information. I sent this email (see below) to Support but perhaps Noel and Jim could answer it here. Let me know if you want me to start a new thread.
Thanks! LLOYD S

I have a post I'd like to add to the Off Topic Forum. It's mostly text but I have a couple of attachments I'd like to include.
One is a JPG image, 2,429 KB and the other is an MP4 video, 29,526 KB.
Can they be added directly to the "post" or would I need to just include a "link" to (say) Dropbox?
I couldn't find any info in your Forum Rules section.
I do believe the file manager feature has a size limitation. Not surprising. Even DropBox has size restrictions (depending on your account), but the free account is comparatively huge versus what the forum provides.
A 28 MB mp4 would not be an issue for the free Dropbox service. But I believe the individual file link here is the forum is limited to 2 MB. And the ability to embed an image is much less than that.

Lloyd, for the JPG, use Faststone Photo Resizer. It's free for personal use, handles batch jobs, has a number of presets, but lets you create your own also. Also lets you resize, rotate, crop, adjust color depth and much more. Then you may be able to just insert the resized image into a post.
For the video, one option is to upload it to YouTube and then enter a media tag or link in your thread.
