Howdy, if I upload, for example, a 340 kb image via the "attachment method" and then try to insert it in a post I get an error message stating it exceeds the limit of 4.77 mb.
Alternatively if I use the "enter an image" function to link an image from the net I get the link contained with the image html but not the actual image on the post.
I've been using both of these methods for years. What has gone awry?
Yeah, I know this is not the tech forum but folks here do post images.
Thanks,
Bud
PS I've signed in and out, rebooted the Mac and skipped my net provider with a failed cellular attempt, blah blah blah ...

If I upload, for example, a 340K image via the "attachment method" and then try to insert it in a post I get an error message stating it exceeds the limit of 4.77mb. Well, hardly.
Hi Bud, I too have gotten "exceeds the limit" error messages before on my Windows machine. But unlike your case, I've been able to clear it and proceed by a log-out/log-in cycle or by a reboot of my machine.
I took that to mean that the forum server got confused in thinking the file was too large to upload. Additionally, I think my mouse is slowly dying which causes me to click a command twice which may be also contributing to the problems I've had.
Hopefully someone else can provide more detailed info. for you.

Same issue here continues. Perhaps it's something to do with PG Music and my browse - Safari.
Odd to have never had this issue before.
TBC,
Bud

I added a few screen shots to some responses I posted today, September, 11, 2022.
I haven't received any error messages while uploading images
I'm experiencing a different issue than you described Bud. My issue frequently occurs when I load multiple images to a post. The first screen shot will not display but is available for download while the second image displays in the post.
I can't definitely answer, but my experience is that if the attachment is too large it is added as a HTML link rather than inserted as an image/graphic etc.
BIAB & RB2026 Win.(Audiophile), Windows 10 Pro & Windows 11, Cakewalk Bandlab, Izotope Prod.Bundle, Roland RD-1000, Synthogy Ivory, Session Keys Grand S & Electric R, Kontakt, Focusrite 18i20, KetronSD2, NS40M, Pioneer Active Monitors.
I too am unable to insert an image anymore. I have tried in 2 browsers. I have reduced the image size to "tiny" at 21kb, but the forum file manager keeps telling me the size is more than 4 MB.

Very frustrating. Is there a solution?
Thanks for your help.
I'm not having any issues attaching a jpg of around 200kb:

I HAVE inserted LINKS to an image many times. (Some of you might say too many times.)
Is there a way to directly embed an image that I don't know about? Because I really don't like having to upload to a cloud storage site, copy the link, etc...
Windows 10 (64bit) M-Audio Fast Track Pro, Band in a Box 2025, Cubase 14, Cakewalk and far too many VST plugins that I probably don't need or will ever use
When you reply, go to the "Full Reply Screen" and there is a link below the text window "File Manager". That allows a number of types of image file to be uploaded.

Ahhhhh, I see the problem!!! When you embed an image, it does not show up in the preview. There is no indication that it is there UNTIL you post the message and THEN the picture is there. Wow, why doesn't it show in the preview? I thought I was going nuts!
“Amazing! I’ll be working with Jaco Pastorius, Charlie Parker, Art Tatum, and Buddy Rich, and you’re telling me it’s not that great of a gig? “Well…” Saint Peter, hesitated, “God’s got this girlfriend who thinks she can sing…”
Both seem to work Bud. The older I get the more all this computer stuff irritates me. Works one day and not the next. I have the same issue that Jim described. I can not see the attachment until it is posted. When I just hit the "Preview Changes" tab, I can not see the attachment.

I just posted in the Real Band Forum and attached 3 png files using File Manager. I can see that there are 3 Files Attached, but I have to click on each before they display. Is that typical?

.PNG doesn't display by default. Convert to .JPG and it will display if it's not too large of file dimension-wise.
