Everytime I try to upload an image unto a post on this site I get, "An error has occurred, upload folder is full"

Now on a Mac where is my upload folder and how do I go about cleaning it out?  :-X

You'll have to use small words. I am mentally handicapped when it comes to computers.  :-\

There is no "upload" folder on your computer, it is a general term referring to the folder that the images are uploaded too.

I got it! The server's upload folder is full! That's why no one can upload! We have too many images on the BCF webhost!

Alloud

There is no "Upload folder" on your computer, and the error message isn't referencing anything to do with your Mac. d:

I'm guessing you're trying to attach an image directly to the forum post from your hard-drive. I don't know how this forum's been set up but it's possible you've reached an upload limit for your account, or maybe even the server's full.

I recommend hosting your images on http://www.photobucket.com (this is what I do) or http://imageshack.us , or an equivalent image hosting site. Then after you've uploaded your file you can copy either the direct link, which will make a hyperlink to the image to be opened in a seperate tab/window in your browser. Or the BBCode link, which will put the image directly in your post on the forum.

Hope this helps.

edit: Didn't work, I suppose it must be with the site then.  :-\

Clearing some old files on the forums.  Please give it another shot and let me know.
