GALLERY UPLOAD LIMIT EXCEEDED!

[davefoxx]

@davefoxx did you upload directly from your phone?

Yes.  Past pictures (to fix broken links) were downloaded from Photobucket to my phone.  New photos are taken by the phone's camera.  The test picture I uploaded today was a pic taken with the phone's camera.

Awesome @davefoxx .  Did you notice your personal gallery? You uploaded into the General one.

I did, but I didn't know what to enter when the uploaded required a "category."  I put general, because I don't know what WUD Images means.

Weekend Up Date

I started creating my own user galleries to better organize the photos.  The single (Facebook-like) stream of photos was a pain to work with.

@peteski- Tom also changed another small bit of functionality hidden on the website. Let's see how long it takes you to find it.

Are you talking about "• Add image to post and upload to gallery" link above the text window when posting a message?  I haven't tried it yet, but it looks pretty nifty!  We can now either attach an image to a post or get the image directly to the gallery. Nice!  However it will only add the picture to the General category (I can't upload it to one of my galleries this way).

"The new gallery will automatically resize your images to 1280 pixels wide."  That will save me some work, because I'm another one whose camera only produces large pictures.  I have programs to resize them, and it isn't hard to do, but saving a step is always nice.  Thank you!

One question:  What if the picture is SMALLER than 1280 pixels?  Will it enlarge them?  That wouldn't always be a good idea.

   pulling hair out... oh wait!

[tom mann]

No, it won't do that.

Nope. It isn't that.

Why after a few days is it just me and @peteski who have galleries here?! 

@peteski can you now upload directly into your personal gallery from the "• Add image to post and upload to gallery" link?  It works great for me.

Not a user YET so I don't know how this works, but can other users browse other users galleries?  That would be a WEALTH of visual info there!

[tom mann]

If I have permissions correct, you should be able to see a gallery for Peteski and me here:

edit: and see Peteski's photos here (and comment on them): https://www.therailwire.net/forum/index.php?action=gallery;su=user;cat=2;u=2700

Thanks Tom!  Can we link to them externally?  May garner more new users?

[dumb question] How do you create a gallery? [/dumb question]  I have a few pictures in the TRW Gallery, but I can't figure out how to start a personal gallery therein.
