Can't post SVG files
Friday, March 24, 2017 - 15:06
Hello! I want to add some more svgs to my slowly growing collection here - http://opengameart.org/content/vector-fantasy-village-buildings, but it tells me that I can't because it's not a png, gif or jpg. Is that a thing now?
No. Svg's upload just fine for me. I don't recommend using them as a preview image, because they won't show up, but there is nothing preventing them from being added to a submission. Or are you talking about posting SVG's to a forum post? That should work too, actually. It just might not display properly. Can you take a screenshot of the message saying you can't upload it?
--Medicine StormNo this is not a forum post. I get this:
...which is a zip which contains svgs. If this is a bug rather than a feature, I'll try a bunch of stuff.
I figured it out. I was being a dumbass. The thing that doesn't take svgs is the comment box on a post. So the rule is, if you want to incrementally upload more svgs, then you just edit the post, rather than posting them as comments on a post. Thank you for replying!
Ah. Yes that would explain it. Please add to submissions by editing the post and not by commenting with an attachment just like you said. :P
