Attaching Photos To Posting
« on: May 04, 2014, 03:58:14 PM »
I don't want to reinvent the wheel, but it's frustrating trying to attach a photo to a posting.

I've read all the "suggestions" and have tried, but to no avail. All my pix are in my Microsoft PICTURES file or in my PHOTOBUCKET account.

Why doesn't the feature work correctly by just clicking on the ATTACHMENTS and other options at the bottom of this page?

I'm a simple man looking for a simple solution.

Pictures on this Forum attach the same as the other forums I add pictures to.

Under ATTACH, click Browse.  Your photo album on your computer should appear.  Select the photo desired and highlight the photo.  Then click on OPEN at the bottom of your photo album.

That should do it.

And I did just that.  Photo should be enclosed.   :)

I'm frustrated. Don't know if it's "the system" or just plain ME??

Do all the right moves. Put pix reference in browse box. Nothing happens. I must be missing a function. After I press POST, some seconds go by. Keep getting error message...Reggie

The browse function only supports loading photos from your computer.

If you use the Insert Image function from the ICON (above the smiley face when you Post reply) you can link in photos using a URL (Web Address with no password).

I did it the same way and have been doing it.

I hit REPLY
Did all the ATTACHING things
Hit POST
A few seconds go by and I get an error message: Cannot post to this website.

Do I need to be blessed by the Pope???

DUH!!!!!
