It was not possible to determine the dimensions of the image.

I get that message whenever I try to include an image in a post. What gives?

I mentioned my problems with the same error message in the New Forum Bug thread.

yes, it does have vacuum power - the only way I can circumvent is to first send the pic to photobucket -

Thank for the photobucket tip. I have been using imageshack and that doesn't help.

The error is caused because the forums cannot read the image information from the server where the image is hosted. Sometimes this is on purpose because the host doesn't allow this. Sometimes the problem is on our end.

I have found an automatic image resizing modification for the boards that is similar to what we had before. We will need to do some testing before we install it, but it's on our list and hopefully we will be able to turn off the image restrictions so you won't encounter this error any more.
