OK guys, I have a big problem. I signed up with this website only a few months ago. I am currently working on my first build log of Tamiya's M2 Bradley. I posted a few pictures but now I have a problem. The website says I can't post anymore pictures on this website because there isn't enough space on my accpount. Can anyone tell me why, and if there is a way, how to fix it?

Voice of Ignorance till the admins respond:
1) Space is limited, most likely a management decision to limit costs. Sorry about that.
2) Size of pics, haven't seen yours, but I'm guessing they're large, 1000 x 1000 or so (2-4 Mb). Try re-sizing them to 800 x 600 or so. Consider an account on Fliker, Photobucket or the like. They're free up to a point, and much more storage than Kitmaker.

Might be an idea to resize your pics before uploading them (640x480 is good) that way you will not be uploading huge file sizes for pictures that are much larger than necessary, or link from one of the photo storage sites, Photobucket,flikr etc. Again it's a good idea to resize because the pictures will load up on Armorama quicker.

Hey Gary,

I had problems way back when trying to upload on here.
Signed up on Photobucket and it was much easier.It's easier to post and free.I've got 300 + photos on there.
