View Full Version : Uploading Multiple RARs?

I don't know if this is a general problem or a "me" problem, but I thought I'd ask.

I occasionally upload stuff with multiple RAR files. Now, it says on that particular page of the upload process that I should be able to upload multiple RARs in a batch, the way you can upload multiple images. I can upload multiple images just fine, but when I try to upload multiple RARs, I get this:

I can't imagine that I'm doing something wrong, but...stranger things have happened. :) So, am I just being a dork, or is something actually broken here? It's really not a big deal to upload the RARs individually; it'd just save a bit of time to do it in one batch.

That's what it does for me too, it's been like that for as long as I remember. Either it's intended to be that way for the files (not pics), or there's a hick-up in the code.

I think it's a space saving technique, since .rars are larger than pictures. If people could upload 8 .rars at a time, they may try to individual .rars per object like TSR or accidentally upload a wrong object. One by one needs slightly more thought than batch uploading. IMO.

Well, I could see if it was intended to be for the pics, not the files, except that the text that talks about uploading multiples is in the files section, not the image section. :) Ah well, like I said, it's not a big deal. I'm just glad it's not just me being a dork. :lol:

This should either work or the text be changed. Note to me to do it.

So D, in light of your twenty-odd posts in this forum today... would you like me to fish out and update your to-do list? :p .
