Re: Trouble uploading photos
I have found it to be the ebid website being temporarily overloaded, images need a lot more bandwidth than text. If it is an intermittent problem it is not likely to be a problem at your end.

It continued to fail only after a few atempts I stopped even getting the symbol. Now it just goes through the motions without adding anything. Is it E-bid or is it my computer that's doing it?
Re: Trouble uploading photos
As bill says, it's usually temporary. If I have a problem I usually cancel the up-load, fill in the rest of the form and try again. Often just those few minutes are all it takes to work OK.
If I'm up and about I often do listings in "off-peak" hours -- early mornings or late at night, when things are quiet.

Problem fixed, we've added expanded our disk space so it doesn't happen again.

Re: Trouble uploading photos
Thanks guys, it's a newish computer so I got a bit worried that I'd bought a lemon when nobody else was mentioning it.

Err Gazza. You know when you said ...

Well. Guess what? it's happened again.
Re: Trouble uploading photos
