[Technical Issue] [Or it could be a question as well] Concerning Albums and Image size.

Sublime

Guest
<div class="bbWrapper">With the AOTW competition having its deadline this Sunday I made some work on my entry. When I tried to upload the images to the album I noticed they were appearing TOO low quality and way too much sized down.<br /> As I was trying to find a solution to this problem I clicked on the question mark button in the 'Upload Manager' thingy and I figured out the size allowed is way too small...as you can see bellow...<br /> <br /> <div class="bbCodeSpoiler"> <button type="button" class="bbCodeSpoiler-button button" data-xf-click="toggle" data-xf-init="tooltip" title="Click to reveal or hide spoiler"><span class="button-text"> <span>Spoiler</span> </span></button> <div class="bbCodeSpoiler-content"> <div class="bbCodeBlock bbCodeBlock--spoiler"> <div class="bbCodeBlock-content"> <div class="messageHide messageHide--image"> You must be registered for see images </div></div> </div> </div> </div><br /> ...the size allowed is 19KB... while for instant JUST the picture I put in the spoiler is 80kb and some of my upload pictures are like...300kb+?<br /> <br /> I've never had a problem with the size of my uploads in V3 and I am wondering what is going on now.<br /> In any case,it is NOT possible to create any quality album with so small space margins.<br /> So I come to ask,will this size stay? If it is something that can be changed by the admins then please do so ASAP or change the AOTW deadline. If it can't be changed,thats too bad and maybe we should find another site to host our Albums for this contest.<br /> <br /> -----<br /> Now on less important album concerning matters.<br /> -Why dont the albums have any color? I hope that will change...not that I care too much atm...<br /> -I can't find a way to delete Uploaded files from the upload manager box and they are not deleting themselves as they are supposed to.<br /> -----<br /> <br /> I hope the above matters get solved soon.<br /> Nevertheless thanks for the hard work.</div>

PNGs have a smaller size allowed and that causes the problem (I'll just save in jpgs instead so no problem).<br /> Thank you <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile :)" data-shortname=":)" /><br /> <br /> Now what I can't figure out is how to empty the upload manager since it doesnt seem to empty itself. Maybe its just a temporary problem so I'll give it some time.</div>

Is there a way to delete images from the Upload Manager, because mine keeps on saying that my capacity is 2.15 mb of 1.95 used, but I can't delete any images from the Upload Manager to create space...
