I've been trying to post some pictures I've taken of local sunsets, but evidently, I'm doing something wrong. I have 3 JPEGs that I have loaded repeatedly using the browse feature. I've chosen to store the originals and am not previewing the posting prior to sending. It appears that the images are being uploaded, atleast based on the amount of time the system appears to be busy. However, the photos never appear in the photo gallery section. I've also noted that the picture I've included in my profile also does not appear to load when I post...something's amuck!! Any suggestions?

Also make sure they are not too big.
For avatar, resize to no bigger than 640 on the long side.
For photo uploads, I believe that the total for the 3 files has to be under 10mb for it to work.

Thanks for the tips all...I might be running up against the size limits. Will try submitting only one or two pictures rather than 3.

I am not doing a preview on the post as the instructions on the discussion board comments that a preview will erase your post. I tried again yesterday with only 2 pictures, which will keep me below the 10 mb maximum, and it still didn't upload...although it appeared everything was working great. As for browser...I use internet explorer...
