It won't let me upload my images. Why?

(However, I did use a small test image and it worked)

If the image is larger than 2 megabytes, it'll usually time out. Thats a limitation of PHP, not the software itself.

Are you on dialup or broadband? Mac/PC? What browser? Mad Mickey is having similar issues in the "new challenges" thread.

I don't know if you have control of this on your server or not, but in the php.ini file you can change this.
The line reads: upload_max_filesize = 2M
and you just set that to whatever you want(such as 6M I suppose since the gallery max space is 6M)

Normally we would have control over that, but our root password no longer works and the company wants $85 to reset it!

That's really........amusing?....sad?....weird? Is that legal if you never changed it? ;)

(imagine how AOL and earthlink could bank on charging $85 for anyone who forgot their password :P laugh)

I don't have an answer for you right now. I suggest possibly upgrading your browser to the latest version. If you're using AOL, I suggest running Internet Explorer separately outside of the AOL program as the AOL version of IE can be an issue sometimes.

Is there another site where I could upload my pictures? I tried to using 2and2.net but it said the document contained no data.

???

Photobucket worked for me, but you have a 25MB limit on a free account.

It sounds like you're having the same issues (PHP upload) with two different sites and it's likely the software you're running has either disabled this for a security precaution, it's not installed properly, or you need to upgrade.
