Is there a problem with the site, as I’m trying to add a mystery object and it won’t let me, it’s not giving the option to add in line?
Correct that, it is allowing me to add some and not others.

It could be the size of the file you are trying to add. There is no actual limit apart from the dimensions. It is good practice though to keep attached images to as small as possible as they are all loaded to a directory within the main site software. The Gallery is preferred as it does not impact the site software as it stores images completely differently and separately from the main site software.

I haqve to correct that last response. It could be described as the interior of a large bore pipe by a pedant but never is. Clue, part of a steam engine.
