Hello, some months ago, I decided to open a sketchbook on this forum. But I thought I was nog good enough, so I decided to draw alot to inprove.
At the moment, the drawings begin to look better and better. And I decided it was time to put all of those sketches, here in a sketchbook.
But there are so many of them...
I've read that I have to use the attatchment manager on this forum, but I can't find out how I can add multiple images at a time. And the images are still too big.
At the moment, I'm uploading the first part of them on Imageshack, because I can resise them smaller automaticly and lots of them at a time.

So before I open a sketchbook on this forum, can somebody please tell me if it's possible and how I can traverse lots of images from imageshack to the attatchment manager?
Or if that does not work, how I can upload lots of images and resise them at a time?

Thank you very much!

you could resize them in photoshop 1st?

It would be really cool if we could get a multiple attachment manager-perhaps it's something CA is working on in one of the next upgrades?....as far as I know there is no way to do it at the moment

And how do I skip all those things I have to enter?
With every picture I want to upload, I've got to enter the copywright owner, categorie, subcategorie, medium, ...
It takes so much time :\ I've got +200 of those images to upload

paste them together in photoshop-maybe 10 to a page, so you only have 20 to upload?

You can do the same action (i.e., resizing, in this case) to multiple photos, while using photoshop, without having to go through and resize each picture individually:

file/scripts/image processor

thank you.
And during the uploading with the picture manager? Do I have to enter the copywright owner and all those categories?

A batch upload system is being worked on and will hopefully be implemented with the next upgrade. It's a known weakness of the current system.

Although having to type in all the info about copyright is a bit of work, it's important as it serves to protect your work against art theft and the like.Using the attachment manager you'll have to fill this out for each image, but you'll get used to that.

Btw, this might have fitted better in the 'support' section as that's where the admins and mods mostly answer these kind of questions :)
