AI Thread Summary
Users are experiencing issues attaching files to posts, specifically JPEG images scanned from sheets. The problems may stem from file size limitations or unsupported file types. One user noted that their scanner produced an image size that was not allowed, leading to a blank screen during the upload process. The discussion highlights the importance of checking both file size and type before attempting to attach files. This issue appears to be recurring for some users.

For some reason, I am unable to attach anything in a post. I was wondering why this is.
 
Physics news on Phys.org


Is it rejecting because of file size? Are you sure that the type of file is one that is allowed?

Thread 'Thank you physics forums, 20 years later'

About 20 years ago, in my mid-30s (and with a BA in economics and a master's in business), I started taking night classes in physics hoping to eventually earn the science degree I'd always wanted but never pursued. I found physics forums and used it to ask questions I was unable to get answered from my textbooks or class lectures. Unfortunately, work and life got in the way and I never got further the freshman courses. Well, here it is 20 years later. I'm in my mid-50s now, and in a...
