I tried uploading from my computer to YWS. That didn't work, though my pictures are the right size, you know, within the limitations.

I also tried using the image url (like, with the little "Img" BBCode button) because I have them on Shutterfly, but that didn't work either.

So...any ideas? I already PMed Firestarter. I was wondering if anyone else was having the same issues.

well what exactly is the problem though?

Are they not showing up, are you getting an error, is the page not loading at all, etc.

If I knew what the problem was I might be able to help ^^

Oops, I should've said. Well, when I tried uploading straight to YWS it said, "Could not upload blahblahfilename." When I tried using the Shutterfly url, I just saw the BBC code in the post as I'd seen it when I was writing the post, like img in the brackets and all at either end. I tried it a bunch of times and nothing worked and I was sad. :(

Hm.

You could be using the wrong URL? I noticed with Photobucket they had a new UrL which gave you a link to the gallery, and I often times mistook that for the actual image URL. Read over your code and make sure it ends with .jpg, or something.

The image type is a jpg, and it all seems to be fine, I checked it a zillion times...I might try a different photo site as well, just to see if it works any differently.

Thanks, all.

Oops, sorry, sabradan! YWS just sort of automatically resized them for me, but they are rather large, aren't they...I've resized them. They should be easier to deal with now. :oops: :D
