Re: How To Post Pictures????


I can't post pictures. I can post them on the gallery, but not in posts.

Nathan (one of the moderators) first suggested shutting off my pop-up guard, which I did to no avail, then stopped answering my emails.

Put your photo on your desktop, then select it when you are asked where to import (or whatever) the picture from.

See if you can post on the gallery first. Maybe I'm not the only one with this problem.

I sense a vast forking conspiracy to deny some of us our inalienable rights to express ourselves fotografically.

You can use this link to learn how to post an attachment.

How to attach a photo to a post

One of the main failures folks have when trying to upload a picture is the size. There is a limit and if you exceed the size limit, your upload will fail.

Please pay attention to the size limitations.

Another option, one which most of use that post pictures regularly, is to use a picture hosting website, such as picassa (Google's offering) or ImageShack.

Both are free to sign up for and use. Both offer the ability to upload a file in a smaller version for posting on message boards.

Hope this helps.

I'll try to put together something in the next day or two that shows how to upload a picture to ImageShack and insert it in a post.

Have you tried listening to FM radio for a change?

Double A:

My manage attachments doesn't open, but it does if I want to post in the gallery, and I have posted one photo in the past to the gallery. I have noticed that my telephone and computer both work better if I refer to Vice President Cheney as such and not "Dick".

Sausage head:

Do you have the same problem? Specifically, not being able to even get the "manage attachments" to open?
