This is probably somewhere in the discussions, but I can't seem to find it with the search. I've tried several times recently to upload a photo to my project via the address on my account page. I never find it? Is anyone else having this problem? I would welcome any suggestions for uploading via this method, please.
Hi Kathy, A few mins after emailing the picture, you should see a message saying, "You have uploads waiting to be organised, Click Here to organise them" in a yellow box at the top of your photostream. When you click on the link, you get to the same Organise page as regular uploads.
If you're not getting the message, you might want to check the size of the photos you are sending.
@humphreyhippo Thanks. I hadn't thought about the size. I usually send a photo out of lightroom and made a preset there the right size for a 365project photo. I'll try to resize the one I wanted to send the other day.
@joannapayne No. When I'm at home I don't do it that way. I tried the other night a jpg from Google photos and I never received it on this site. Don't really know what the problem is. I sent an email to Ross Scrivener hoping he will weigh in.
@joannapayne This is the response I got from Ross ( @scrivna) via email. He first asked me to send the photo to him how I sent it to 365project. He reviewed and sent this response:
Hi Kathy,
So I see the issue now, you’ve pressed a “share via email” button which does not work the same as just attaching a photo to an email. The “share” version is basically an email with a link to open the photo in a browser.
The 365 email Import will only work if you actually “attach” the jpeg etc to an email, like you’re doing it from gmail or outlook.

Does that make sense?

I hope this helps you too.
Pretty sure that I’ve tried both ways. Will try later at home!
