Member pics

When I try to upload some of my pics I get a message saying they need approval. When I go to my gallery there is two pics that say waiting for approval. This is fine but I tried to upload 6 and only the last two show up.

Any suggestions?

You can only upload three at a time...and they have to be less than 500k in size. If the pictures you tried to upload were too big then they didn't get loaded up.

By the way, there are exactly ZERO pictures in your gallery that are pending approval. Just two pics of a truck race or something.

Well, I do have many super powers but apparently being able to see pending images isn't one of them.

That function is messed up.
Just do them one at a time and they should work.

Yes, it's a lot of extra steps, but it works.

I did them one at a time and a message poped up that said pending approval, but there was no message in the gallery that said more pics waiting approval. The pics are close to 500 but not over. I guess I will try it again.

All the pictures have to be approved by an Admin before they will show up in your gallery. We try to get to them as quickly as possible, but we do have lives to

I've had no issues with the bulk upload feature. In addition, remember to check not only the file size for being too large, but also the resolution. If either one of those items is too big, then you will not be able to upload the picture. It won't even show us a pending approval.

Thanks for all the help. The problem is that the pics are too large of a file. The smallest one is 3.66MB. I guess I will try something else.

Holy Cow, they could be printed into Posters!
At least the problem was identified!

I tried once, and it didn't work, had to do them one at a time.

Guess I'll have to get some post worthy pics and try again.

I printed the pics off my printer and then scaned them in. This reduced the file size and then I was able to upload them.

Thanks again for the help!

That's a bit of extra work, but if it works, it works.
