It should be working now. It was pointed at the old server for the member info.

Cheers,
Jim

Thanks, Jim. I thought it might have been related to the server move.

And thanks for all you do to keep this site up and running!

The Sherman picture is in the gallery. If it's not showing up on the site that is usually an issue with the setting in your profile here on the main site. Check to make sure it's setup right there in the settings area.

Thanks Jim,
After trying everything in that settings panel and uploading on kitmaker I finally understand why so many people use the standard images... It just doesn't take the image (75x75px, 8.5kb)
I give up

Thanks & Kind regards
Steven

Jim,
There used to be a link on my profile to my gallery that now seems to be missing. Only the workbench photos link remains. Is that a permanent change or simply a transient effect of the server move?

I've been trying to upload some photos for a new build log all night with no luck.
I keep getting a message saying 'Your graphic is too wide! Please upload a smaller one.'

I've resized pics down to 850 pixels wide and still no luck. Don't really want to drop them any smaller.
In the past I've uploaded pics with a width of 1000 pixels with no bother.

I will raise this with the publisher Stephen, there will be some issues after the move and it can take a little while to smooth out all of the wrinkles.

Thanks.

I've just tried to make a new build log (Italeri's 1/72 F-4 Vietnam Aces) but the 800 photo's were so small no one would be able to see them properly!

I'll try again in a few days. The time will give me a chance get my head around the kit and compare with my references so I can open with a brief review.

Hi,
got the same problem. Now I know that you guys are working on it and it's probably not my new notebook
Thanks for dealing with it now

I made some updates that hopefully fixed some of these issues. Keep in mind it's still best to upload photos that are already scaled down to at least 1280 max width (or height). The system still seems to be kicking back file uploads that are over the server max file size. But any image that is pre-sized to the levels above (or at least smaller than 2MB) should be fine.

Best wishes,
Jim

I'll give it a go tomorrow and see how I get on.
