So for a few days I have been posting some photos on myLot in my effort to not be upset with myLot for NOT explaining to me the earnings payout. I have been able to post approximately 29 photos, which is not a bad to help my decrease in discussion responses, but now being a new day, a fresh day I am ready to post some photos but all I get is this message (see title above), Has anybody else experienced this from posting photos on myLot?? Next thing you know they will restrict how many discussions we can respond to ... geez, talk about frustrating

I am able to upload 18 photos in a single go and then I receive the message that "you have reached your photo upload maximum". I think they allow us to upload a certain numeber of photos within 24 hours and is different for different members.Previously I was able to upload only 15 photos in a day.They are a good way to increase the earnings as I get one cent for a photo and one cent for responding to a discussion, so I find it easier to earn through photo upload then responding to discussions.

I actually was able to up 29 photos in a row in one day, I did this for 3 days, which helped out my earnings greatly, now I can't upload even one ...

Yes I have. I posted 6 photos and then recieved that mesage when trying to upload a 7th. I waited until the next day and I still got the message. I tried AGAIN after I had recieved the payment for the that day and then I was able to upload photos! I've uploaded between 10 and 20 photos so far! I've recieved $0.14 for it so far! How much have you earned?

I was able to post 29 photos each day for three days, which makes a total of $0.29, which has helped out my decline in responding to discussions

As far as i know we can upload roughly 25 photographs in any 24 hours. However, are you saying this is not the case? I would certainly send a message to mylot, it may well be a glitch i wish you well, blessed be

Hmm, I haven't experienced this, as I have nevr posted that mjany pgotos. My guess is that My Lot has a limit, but what it is I don't know, & they don't say. Most likely the limit is over a few days, so you must have exceeded their limit for a few days woerth of photos. You will see that message until you have reached a point when a new lot of photos can be posted. I tried uploading photos to increase my inxcome, but it is very time consuming.

Maybe, they have limited its uploading when it terms in photos since mostly of the myLot members are turning it's attentions to photos since we can earn more with it. I have a friend who cannot post discussions since she have reached it's minimum payout. Once she has paid already, she can not post to discusssions, is there anyone out there who experienced this?

I had the same problem today myself but it was the first photo of today I was uploading. I haven't upload a picture since Friday. I logged off and tried to do it again but I couldn't I thought it was my computer. Thanks for letting me know that I am not the only one having a problem.

i have had similar experiences with mylot..and i know it can be frustrating..but they did explain me the reasons for limiting the maximum number of photos which can be uploaded..and that sounded quite logical to me..the reason why u got that message might be because the server was not refreshed or some technical snag..try to logout and then sign in again..as you know mylot runs on a 24 hour cycle..so in some cases just be a little more patient..

If you wait until after you have received your new earnings for the day then the photo counter is reset and you should be able to upload photos again. Keep trying, it sometimes takes a few hours before you can start uploading photos again. I have had this experience and I just wait and try later and it works.

I usually average around 25 photos. One day I received 34 cents and I knew that I had uploaded quite a few photos. Then one of my friends said they rated the photo I uploaded with my discussion and I think that is how I got the extra money.

Correction, 38 cents. I just looked back over the last couple of months and found this one.

I am currently in the waiting mode to upload more .. what is the most you have ever uploaded in one day? The most I can get is 29, and from the responses here that is a great amount for people.

I thought myLot posted an alert some time ago that posting photos in your profile does not earn one any money. and then they introduced intersts...but someone said somewhere that we do not earn money from that either. Hmmm... I have been through some interest areas and have seen people load photos that had nothing to do with that area of interest. I am NOT saying that you are doing this. But I am saying this because this my be myLot's way of preventing that type of abuse. I am sorry that you feel as if you have waited time. May I ask...have you been paid for loading photos in the interest areas? Because this is something I have wondered but have not taken the time to test.

Yes, you get paid, about $0.01 per image. I post under interests, then pick the interest of my choice and upload photos, this does not go into my profile but into the interest group. Great way to make extra money when you are not wanting to respond to discussions.

I've never had this happen but the most I've uploaded in one day is I think 5. I've been saying I was going to try to do more but just haven't gotten around to it yet.

I have gotten that message too. I guess there is a limit. I was surprised when I got the message. It probably has to do with the fact that photos take up a lot of mememory and stuff, so they have to put some limit on it.

I just started posting some photos, so I haven't gotten the message yet. That would be frustrating, I wonder how long the later is?

Gosh, that happened long ago on here to me but never again since. I'm not sure what the limits are now? When I was getting the error message it was happening to many, so it was a glitch.

I haven´t tried uploading, you can have mine if you want *lol* I am not really sure why they should have a limit, incase it has something to do with their space on the server. Anyways - I would give you all of mine - if i could =)

I really don't upload many photos and so don't usually bother with them too much unless I'm starting a discussion of my own. I've never had this error message before either, although I know some other users have. I did know that there's a limit on how many photos you can upload, and from what I understand, it's a 24 hour thing, not weekly or monthly. With a lot of members complaining about this in the responses, I get the feeling that a glitch has occurred, and you should message Mylot again, see what they say. I'm sure if you're patient, they will get back to you.
