Grey areas in uploaded images

[bew]

Hi,

I was really glad to find this mod and it worked perfectly fine installing it. However, starting to use it, just half om the images or even just a top bar of the images was displayed correctly. The rest is plain grey. I concluded that, the bigger the image (in kb) the more of the image is plain grey. Why is that? I have tried to configured the allowed max size in the admin area, but it doesnt matter how high I set this value, I still get these grey areas.

Anyone else had this problem? Any ideas how to solve it?

Thankful for help

This might be a php limit setting check your host and see if they can increase either the upload or processing time limit.

Hi again,

Thank you for your suggestions. I tried them out but the images still wasn't displayed correctly.

I have now concluded that the SMF Gallery has nothing to do with it. It seems like my Apache server cant handle big sized images correctly. When I place the image on the Apache disk space and request the image directly, I still get the same grey areas. Very strange. I am quite used to work with Apache and has never bumped into this problem. I am quite new to PHP though, can the PHP settings really be involved if the images isnt't displayed correctly even if the images aren't requested from within a PHP page?

I will naturally look for information regarding this elsewhere, but since I guess there are alot of Apache experts also in this forum, I would be very happy for any help / ideas.

I use the latest version of the wamp server. http://sourceforge.net/projects/wampserver/

Have a nice one!
