Awesome, thank you
Hi everyone 
I am new on glideapp and keep trying to upload an image, even my profile image wonāt upload. I get a message saying, āThis image could not be uploaded. Please try again later.ā How much longer do I need to retry? Please help. Thank you kindly.
Just to check, you have stable Internet connection and havenāt used all of your storage quota?
That is correct. First time on.
Have you tried to do it with another browser?
No, I have not. I will try that and report. Thank you.

Whatās the ETA on this way to delete resources?
The 30-day delete period would be unfortunate - Meanwhile Iām paying for a service I canāt use because storage quota is the one Usage variable thatās over its limit.
If you remove reference to a file in your tables, it should free up your storage limit shortly after. The link will become inactive after 3 days, and the file will be permanently deleted after 30 days.

On the subject of images. I have a wee question please, if I may. Iāve very nearly finished developing a My Medications app, thanks to the help and support of Glide community members.
There is one last major tweak Iād like to do for the app and it has to do with images. Iām wondering if there is a way that a user can select from a range of images, they have previously uploaded into a add new medications form please? Iāve tried a number of strategies with image array. To give you all an idea.
(These images are from the test app only and no real info is contained therein).
The main layout for this datasheet is similar to this:
When the add medication form is generated, one has to manually upload an image so it will appear in the main layout like above:
I have managed to tweak the app that the user can select the name for the individual the medication being added to the app is for (and also for medication type):
What I would like to do is with the main image rather than having to upload, the user can select their image from a gallery as part of the form, rather than having to manually upload another image. That is tied to their email address so only the images they see belong to the specific user email account.
Is there a way of doing this please? Iāve tried image array and also multiple images etc. Iāve also tried a choice selection however this is rather adhoac and does not give the main image for the main medications list page once the form is submitted.
My aim is that whilst there are quite a number of required fields (in the real app) Iām trying to streamline the form completion process for the user for them to select from the range of images theyāve already uploaded, rather than continually having to re-upload an image each time.
Any ideas and suggestions welcome and greatly appreciated.
Many thanks
You need a list of images in a single column, one image per row. The list can be anywhere in any table, as long as the table isnāt protected by Row Owners.
Use that column of images as the source of a choice component in your form, and direct it at the column where they would normally upload their image to.
