Apparently there is a limit to how many pics you can upload to your album. I used to link all my pics in posts to my album until one day it told me I had hit my limit of about 300Mb. I didn't want to delete any so I haven't added any since.

No way i can view that many pics in a lifetime

There is a used space limit per account. If you reach the limit, send a PM to AlexKnight with an upgrade request.
We don't want to miss any pictures just because of disk space

Edit, not that long ago all disk quota were doubled, so most members do have plenty space left.
@Dees Man, your disk usage is below 50% of the current quota, go ahead and add your pictures to your album

It's good to know we have lots of space.
I have my camera set a the highest resolution and store them that way on my personal drives.
When I upload to the album I usually reduce them to 1600:900. That's still a very high quality but does not take up a lot of space.

Is there a way that a regular user can display their current space utilization?
Not a big deal though. I still have a long way to go before even getting close to full,

Thanks Nescio50
Indeed a more easy way!!!!!!!

It seems certain Nina and I would run out of room before we got all 1,349 pictures of her input. Besides, it won't let me make an account. Tried 4 times. Oh well.

If you make an account at The Doll Album, be sure to use the same screenname and same email address as your TDF account. If there's still a problem, send a PM to AlexKnight.

P.S. 1,349 pictures won't be a problem. Depending on the average size of your pictures, maybe you have to ask for an upgrade of your space quota.

If it still doesn't work, just send me a PM, and I'll create the account manually.

Thanks Nescio (and Guy for the PM)

I got that limit message 15 months ago and have only added one or 2 since. Now I have this info I can go back to linking album pics in posts as they look neater in the post rather than uploading directly to the post, especially .gif files.
