    Unattached attachments

    Something odd happened when I hit "submit thread" on http://www.sawmillcreek.org/showthread.php?t=36665.
    I got a browser error, resubmitted...and now the attachments show as links instead of thumbnails. Is there any way to recover without resizing/renaming/reuploading the pictures?

    Edit: I ended up doing the kabuki dance with the pictures, because I was the only one who could follow the links. In the 'attachment' database (under user control panel), it showed them with no thread ID and 'in progress'...this was like 15 minutes after the thread was submitted. I've deleted them (redundant now), but what's the normal way to handle this situation?

    Yoga class makes me feel like a total stud, mostly because I'm about as flexible as a 2x4.
    "Design"? Possibly. "Intelligent"? Sure doesn't look like it from this angle.

    Delete the pictures, edit the post, and insert the images as you normally would.

    I realize that (now)...didn't know I could get to all my attachments that way before.

    Speaking of which: is there some kind of per-user aggregate limit on number/size of attachments?

    Not currently, no. There's a size limit per attachment, but no aggregate limit.
