Attachment Quota for the board has been reached?

Tried to put up a photo and got this message. Is it broken or are we just way too prolific?

We seemed to have picked up an enormous number of orphaned attachments (file gets uploaded, but the attachment doesn't get used in the post). I cleaned that out, and then changed the board's settings. Sorry about the hiccup, you should be good to go.

For best results, however, I highly recommend you post your image to someplace else on the interweb (ie a free blog site like tumblr, which has worked out for me), then use the [IMG] tag to embed the pic on that site.

I store my pictures on PhotoBucket. It's free and works well. To post these pictures on ePlaya, just copy and paste the bottom one of the four addresses available.

Pretty sure allowing attachments at all violates at least seven of the Ten Principles. Fuck 'em if they can't figure out the internets.
