    hmm...that actually is happening to me if I chose to uploaded from my Mac.
    I thought it may be file size, but just tried some that were 3Mb and 72Kb...failed.

    Lemme see if I can figure it out.
    I typically host my images, so I don't use this feature...

      I'm not sure that uploading form your computer is actually enabled. It shouldn't be giving us that option at all....we need to figure this out. Joe is still working to get the user gallery working again, but I think that's a separate deal.

        yea, I was just getting ready to post, but Scott beat me to it.
        I don't think it's enabled in the admin settings yet.

          being able to upload from my iPad would be sweet - but I can't say I have seen that work anywhere, other than something like a Facebook app doing the jockeying...

            Thanks for addressing it. At least I know it's not me.

              I'm having the same problem. It's say INVALID file...but the picture is in there, I just can't expand and it says my album is empty? I also...if we can't upload from our computers...how else are we suppose to get them in there???

              P.S. The file is not to big...I know enough to re-size my Pics.

                I haven't been able to see the gallery at all, or upload, or anything.
                I'm glad I found some info here.

                  You should be able to upload images now.

                    Still no go for me. I can see the one picture I've uploaded, but when I click on it to enlarge...it says "the Bat's album is empty. And then the picture disappears.

                              Yes, attachments are resized. But you can click on it and see the original.
