Uploading picture to totally off topic board
« on: Saturday 24 June 23 09:44 BST (UK) »
Hello, I hope someone can help.

I tried to upload a picture but it was too large so I made it smaller. However, when I came to upload it, I got a message that I had already used that file name and to change it.

So I did and got the same message. Tried again from a different file. Same message. Tried different file, different name and different photograph. Same message.

Where am I going wrong?

The file name must be unique within RootsChat!  ;)

I add my initials to the end of the filename (e.g. file1-KG).
Garrad (Suffolk, Essex, Somerset), Crocker (Somerset), Vanstone (Devon, Jersey), Sims (Wiltshire), Bridger (Kent)

Thank-you. I must be very unoriginal  :)

I'll try again
