TROUBLE WITH UPLOADING INTO PLAN GALLERY

[TheLurker]

...the verification code... Sometimes I even need 4 attempts ...

I cycle through the images until I get a code on a yellow(ish) background.  They seem to be the most legible. The ones on the purple(ish) background utterly defeat my eyes.

Some patience please, it is being looked into and should be easy to remove the Captcha image for uploading...

I'm happy with the captcha, it's just my eyes that aren't but I can work around my duff eyesight - carry on until I get a legible image - and I'd rather we had something to reduce the risk of bots trying to upload stuff than not.

I too cycle through the chapta until I see one that is probably acceptable.
But, ADMIN, do no remove the chapta at all!!!
Do you rememeber the bombing to HipPocket?
Maybe another kind of chapta should be more comfortable.

whoch ones do you want to keep and which ones to delete?

If you keep the first 3 uploads - then delete the second 3, that will be appreciated. Thanks George - I'll upload all the dwgs in a single pdf or zip in the future, as advised.

Hi George. I'm coming to the realisation that the Plans Gallery doesn't like me. I uploaded 2 plans, both labelled "XSticksy 300" - a layout and full size templates. On checking today - there is actually nothing there.

I suspect that it is a problem for me anyway, with the URL address of the inserted file, as the field for the URL address does not automatically show when the file is selected in the field above. I think I typed in the URL for my previous plan (Sparrow) but find this to be a pain, but will do it if necessary.

I'm still running on Win10 and this may also be causing issues.

Thus as there is nothing there - it is probably best to delete these 2 entries in "Free Flight/Outdoor Rubber Power Sport/XSticksy 300"

Sorry to be a nuisance.

Hi John,

please have a look at this and try again.

I just deleted the original uploads.

Windows should have nothing to do with it.

Do not use the "URL" option but the "Navigate" one when choosing the files.

Let me know how it goes...

Thanks for all the patient help George. It appears that it has been successful, after just checking the latest effort.

Verification doesn't seem to work at all. I have no real problem deciphering the thing - or is it case sensitive?

Found my problem.  My thumbnail was a bit too large and I overlooked the control panel message (senior moment...).
