I was thinking that it would be nice to have strikethrough code for HTML available, I don't know how hard it would be to setup but I think vBulletin supports it.

Also, I am having a problem uploading photos, whenever it trys to upload one or more pictures it says "Processing images please wait" and then when the next page loads it goes to a blank screen (the address of the page stays the same as the uploading page as well). When I check my gallery nothing is there. Thanks for the help.

I just uploaded a photo with no problem. I did re-size it before I did the upload.


Note:
Image resizer is from Microsoft Power Toys for Windows XP

It is used thru Windows Explorer

Ok. Now that I know people other then Simon are having problems, I did even more digging. Before it was just and only Simon since people had not spoken up. It is hard to figure out when only one person has problems, especially Simon. ;) So anyway, I found some permission issues from when I had backed up the forums after the hack from over a year ago.

The permissions didn't apply to everyone above, but I did ssh in and found that everyone had stuck pictures in their cues. I cleared them out. I have a feeling that they were massive in dimensions based on . Before we were more concerned about space and had put a size cap on the pictures back in the beginning of 1200x1200 max size. Well that is not so easily workable. So I jumped it up to 2000x2000 being the max width. That is more workable for people. However if it is larger then this size, you will have problems! I know that my Digital SLR takes 3072x2048 pictures and I would have the same problem as you all. Granted it should not fail and take you to a blank page, but it does... sorry.

So everyone should give it a try now ensuring that their picture does not exceed 2000pixels in any direction.


Thanks!

Checked some of my pictures and they were a little over 2000x2000, so I shrunk them down to the 1900's and I still get the blank screen of death.

I finally figured it out. It had to do with GD2... and memory size. The file that allocated a larger memory block was erased with an upgrade. Give it a try now! I just uploaded 2 HUGE files!
