I am trying to upload an attachment, which is a photo of my nails which I just painted:P (can check out my thread called "Nails Nails Nails!!" in anything goes;)) And it won't let me! It comes up with a red circle with an exclamation mark! HELP! Also how do you delete attachments from my attachments box thingy?D:

    Hey Charlee,

    There are a few possible reasons it's not working at the moment. The attachment might be a bit big or it might be the wrong type of file. Here are the common picture formats and their maximum sizes:
    gif 1,000.0 KB
    jpeg 9.77 MB
    png 100.0 KB

    When it comes to deleting your uploaded attachments, if you haven't used them in a post, they will be deleted automatically an hour after they're uploaded ;)

    A lot of people find it easier to upload pictures to a site like Imgur, which stores it for you and gives you a link, which you can use in your posts.

    Hope that helps :)
