Most of mine are iPhone .mov files which I believe arenโ€™t compatible.

Edit: Iโ€™m looking at various converter programmes to convert .mov files. Some are free but I donโ€™t want to get into the old Photobucket situation when after using it for a while they try to blackmail you into paying for it with threats of deletions.

The images auto size to the width of the message area.
I suppose in some cases that's a bit of a pain if the image is taller than it is wide, but it stops the problem we had on the old site with the images being too wide and bursting the seems and mucking up the rest of the page.

Video upload - Being the sites official deviant, I hope you will use this feature sensibly ๐Ÿ˜‚
That's right, .mov files are not natively supported but I can get ffmpeg onto the server and get the conversion done there. I just wanted to get image upload done for the easy formats first so it could start to get used.
I WILL get .mov conversation done as there are so many iPhone users, might even do it tonight. Welcome to Premium โค๏ธโญ

It's on the same row as the Bold, Italic etc icons when you write a message / PM BUT it's only visible to Premium users. It's one of the perks of contributing to the site.

@Onslow - Well down for mastering the tech ๐Ÿ‘ (I assume you had your wallet in your left pocket when taking that photo, somethings heavy enough to put you off balance!)
@Vossy - 'Brain bleach' in the post...

Test to see if uploading a .mov file will work, fingers crossed...

Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
