Default Unable to post photos to my posts

I seem unable to post photos (jpg) to my posts, I have added hundreds before and I have had no problems.
Are they too big? They were automatically resized to suit the forums needs at one time, maybe they still are.
I have looked for a reason for a couple of weeks now and found no solution.
Can you help me please?

Dave,

What procedure are you using to post the pictures? Which button? The image button above? The "Manage attachements" button?
Are they JPGs for sure? 5.95MB using the image icon (the ones above were with "Manage Attachments":

It suddenly started working when I posted a pic in a thread this evening when it had failed to work all this morning and for a month previously. Priceless!

The first one is using the postcard icon. 4.3 MB. .jpg's


This one is Manage Attachments. 4.3 MB

Not for me. I used to be able to Copy and past in memes and Photo's..

Simple and slick.

Now only sometimes.

Why did they add the complications to upload and drag/drop?

Yeah, and I had a bunch of 'em.
I could see culling inactive members. But not those of us active on the site and who used our Crossfire Forum like a photo bucket.
