Topic: Can't post new film b/c can't upload thumbnail?

Anyone else noticing this issue with being unable to upload any thumbnail image, and so cannot upload film?
thanks

Re: Can't post new film b/c can't upload thumbnail?

uh-oh. I knew people were having avatar uploading problems but I wasn't aware of this, too. I'm not sure what the problem is exactly; what kind of error to you guys get when you try to upload a thumbnail?

I have the same problem right now, and Uric had the same problem a few days ago.

It said:
Notice: getimagesize() [function.getimagesize]: Read error! in /home/bim/public_html/films/addfilm.php on line 160
Sorry, you failed to upload a thumbnail image for your film. Please go back and correct this

Re: Can't post new film b/c can't upload thumbnail?

I got this weird thing.  So you've just got "NOoos!" right now instead of the image uploader.  I was uploading it and I somehow got logged out; in a separate tab I logged back in to see what this thread said, but then this window had only our image uploader in it.  I tried uploading an image through it and got this message:

Thumbnail update complete, you may now exit this window.

Igot a similar message, but I hit next and kept going. Then when I hit submit I got the above message.

Re: Can't post new film b/c can't upload thumbnail?

Have the same problem.
I can’t "upload"/submit to the forum because of the thumbnail problem.
I tried in four different browsers and two PC’s with different file formats and sizes.

Re: Can't post new film b/c can't upload thumbnail?

Sorry about this, guys. I've emailed our programmer with the full error message from y'all, thank you. Hopefully it can be fixed soon, I realize this is a pretty substantial problem but it is beyond my own ability to fix. mini/sad

Thanks, Smeag. I hope whatever you did works. mini/smile

Have you seen a big-chinned boy?

Re: Can't post new film b/c can't upload thumbnail?

It happened to me too, but I just tried several times and eventually I got a thumbnail that didn't come with the error message so the film got through.  The thumbnail didn't show up beside the post as it should, though.

Re: Can't post new film b/c can't upload thumbnail?

I'm having that problem as well.

Re: Can't post new film b/c can't upload thumbnail?

Just a heads up, it appears the problem won't be fixed for a couple of days. But we should be able to get it fixed by Tuesday or Wednesday. I do apologize, it's moments like this when I feel like maybe I shouldn't be running a site given I'm not a programmer!

No worries Smeagol mini/smile

Thanks for the heads up!

Re: Can't post new film b/c can't upload thumbnail?

Same problem here, no worries about it though. Will wait for it to be fixed mini/smile

Hope you enjoy them!

Re: Can't post new film b/c can't upload thumbnail?

How's it looking so far Smeagol? Has the problem been deciphered?

Just a heads up thumbnails appear to be working. Cocco has very recently uploaded a video and he has a displayed thumbnail. Perhaps Cashlego you'd like to confirm if you are now able to upload one?

There is still an error when it comes to uploading a new avatar.

"Warning! The following errors must be corrected before your profile can be updated:
The server was unable to save the uploaded file. Please contact the forum administrator at [email protected]."

I'm no programmer, but I'm a little confused. If the server's data capacity is full and is unable to save files to the server, how did his thumbnail upload and yet an avatar cannot?

Re: Can't post new film b/c can't upload thumbnail?

Thumbnails appear to be fixed, yes. We're still trying to figure out the remaining issue of the avatars, I confess the exact problem remains something of a mystery to both me and our programmer (OneManFilms).

Re: Can't post new film b/c can't upload thumbnail?

Avatar uploading should be able to resume now. I was able to successfully upload an avatar for myself, but it would be good to hear from others that it is working for them as well.

Re: Can't post new film b/c can't upload thumbnail?

I've successfully uploaded an avatar. Well done Smeagol and OneManFilms.

Thanks fellas!
It's working now, but did glitch when I hit "Confirm new thumbnail."
Thankfully backing out, starting over, and NOT touching that button worked.

Honestly, OneManFilms did all the work. So kudos.

I'm having trouble with updating my avatar.  I choose the file, hit "update profile", but nothing happens and it just keeps displaying my old avatar pic.  I don't get any error message or anything.  Is this somehow related to this Avatar/Thumbnail glitch?
