Gentlemen: 

Any idea why I am getting this message and how to avoid it?

"Your session timed out while posting. Please try to re-submit your message."

I was trying to post a couple of photos to my post re:  W1LO SK 
I have signed out and in again, also restarted the computer and tried the next day with the same result.

Thanks in advance,

What format are you using to upload? The maximum attachment size allowed is 5000 KB.
Are you on a dial-up or slow DSL?
The first two files are a hair less then 3 Megs each. Third files is a hair less then 1 Meg.
If I try to upload a file greater then 5 Meg, it bombs.

I do not believe the size of the files is an issue - they are 2 .jpg's at 94 KB and 682 KB.  But, I just tried to reply to this message with my normal laptop and I got the same error message.  I am now on another computer, and if this posts, then it is specific to the other machine, which has been giving me random issues since I upgraded from Windows 10 to Windows 11. Thanks for your help.
