help, can't post photos

[philwilliams]

No sure exactly where to put this but anyway, i'm having trouble uploading photos -keeps coming up with this message after i've hit the upload button
'Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 67108864 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 16000 bytes) in /home/daiv/public_html/forum/includes/functions_upload.php on line 112'. It seems to be saying theres not enough memory but the topic i'm trying to add to is only 3 pages long. Ideas anyone ?Thanks

Your pic is too big. Try to downsize it a bit.

Just tried to upload a photo which was 746 mb, the poorest quality, and still would not work ???

The pics on this site tend to be under 100 kb, with a max of around 600 pixels on one of the sides. I think your pic has to be a lot smaller. I don't know what you used to downsize, but a lot of us use (free) programs like Irfanview (http://www.irfanview.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;)

Hope that helps.
