PyPortal Weather Station Insufficient Space

Post by Extra_Fox »

Hi All,

I was updating my PyPortal as it's been rather unreliable lately (lots of random freezing). I figured a fresh start would do it some good.

So I've got it to the point where I'm transferring over the Weather Station files and I keep getting an insufficient space error to the tune of about 3.92MB. It's the image files for the weather icons that seem to be the problem and being all BMPs, there's no compression.
  • Is this a permanent limitation on my PyPortal or am I doing something wrong?
  • Can the PyPortal accept PNG or even GIF?
Thanks a million?

Ugh, PICNIC error. I'm supposed to add those icon files to the attached storage. The key components that are essential to reside on the PyPortal fit as intended.
