8,334 KB. I uploaded 9 in a row and when I tried the 10th it failed. I've tried maybe 4 times in 2 days to finish my TR but am stuck on the page issue.

I've heard this years ago... photos over 8 megabytes cannot upload. But perhaps things have changed.

I can't recall the size limit right now, but I do believe that it's 8MB. You may want to resize it down a bit and try again. No need to upload photos that large.

I personally use Picasa 3 and use the export tool to resize hundreds of photos in speedy time! Plus you don't have to worry as much about people stealing your pics when they are in moderate resolution.

I usually batch process my photos to a smaller resolution but I didn't check these (thinking they were older and thus smaller.) I'll batch 'em and try again.

Thanks!

Nothing has been changed with regards to the log in system. I have been brainstorming a bit of how to solve the problem when it happens even though I can't replicate it on my end. I may try to make changes sometime soon. But the problem then is that I have no way of testing if they actually work!

FYI, the problem is back with a vengeance. Can't stay logged in for any reasonable amount of time. Started again second half of Friday.

The problem is always there. It doesn't come and go. It's just that I can't seem to repeat it and no one can give me conditions under which it happens to them so that I can debug it.

I forgot to sign in and tried to add an image to an existing page. I think the way it used to be is that you weren't even given the option, but now under contribute you can click on add route, image, trip report, and album even when not signed in. It lets you enter stuff and when you click submit you get a not very useful error message such as

Ideally, you shouldn't be given the option of contributing if you aren't signed in, or at the very least be given a more useful message such as "You need to sign in first."

An Addition/Correction to a page will show up in the Comments on the What's New page. However, when I just clicked on one, the link didn't bring me to the relevant Addition/Correction, but to the Comments for the page!

Interesting. I'll track that down and fix it.

Thanks for pointing this out. Indeed, you used to be redirected to login when attempting to create or edit a page. I just changed it so this is the case again.

Not any more

The old editor no longer displays a map. I think this happened when you swapped from Google Maps API 2 to 3. So could you bring it in for the old editor?

I can't post a new topic in Gear...clicking "New Topic" takes me to my profile page. Making a New topic in all other forums works fine.

Have you tried logging out and back in?
