hi allas some of you will no doubt be aware there have be a few technical problems with uploading photos onto Secret Leeds.initially, larger pictures were distorting the discussion pages. The fix for that issue was a restriction on the pixel width of images to 400px.we're aware that this 'fix' didn't really work, as a lot of people have been having difficulty resizing pictures to within the maximum allowance. We are currently coming up with an alternative solution - please bear with us.in the meantime I think the best solution is to allow images of any size and put up with distorted pages for a bit. any thoughts people?cheers,dsco

Yeah thats good! I don't mind resizing mine sometime later! I felt the small size wasn't very clear to view. Cheers!

This would appear to be the best solution in the short term

For those who are wondering ... we are still working on the fix for the picture sizing issue - our designers have added a picture resizing tool into the upload procedure.This work is not yet complete! We are having a few issues with it, so again - please bear with us. It does however look like it will offer a full solution to the problem, once it works the way we want it to.Will keep you all updated on progress!Cheers,dsco

No problem uploading photos, but can someone do a quick idiot's guide to inserting a user icon?
