Why cant I upload a map I made up to this forum? I have it in JPG and BMP forms (normally JPG works fine) and neither will open!? Why? Do I have to have special access?:confused: :(

THIS IS WHAT IT TELLS ME:

Fatal error: vB_Upload_Attachment: Attachment cache not specfied. Can not continue. in /includes/class_upload.php on line 486

:confused: :( :(

I believe that posting attachments is like having avatars on Jolt - you have to pay for it. Try uploading your image/s to another site, then linking to them.

Geocities will not work... they do not permit "Hotlinking"

To do so, try:

http://www.ripway.com

I have tried all 3 in the past, they all work well... my personal favorite is "ripway," but the other two are more common.

Much easier to manage previously uploaded images... also works great for other file types (SWF, MID, WAV) IE, all things you would use in a website... I am a webmaster, and hence, I like it.
