Posting photo's in forums.

[Mychael]

I'm sure there was a thread somewhere but search could not find it. Is using an image hosting program the only way to put pics into your posts? Copy/paste Cut/paste does not seem to work

If you select "Go Advanced" when making a post, scroll down a bit, you'll find "Manage Attachments".

No Rudey ones mind!!

But they are the best kind.

Hey Mychael, How'd you fair in the floods?

 

[Mychael]

Good thanks mate. No where near me, although in the past I've traveled through the areas that are flooded.
In a bit of black humor my deceased mate who was a farmer in a place called Mitiamo in Victoria was always complaining about the drought. Where he is buried is/was under water for a bit. Hope he can swim.

Here is a little picture tutorial.

To add a picture, start by hitting Post Reply or Go Advanced.


Hit the paperclip icon to open an attachment upload window. Notice the list of valid file types and the limits to the file sizes. Simply browse for the files you wish to add and then press Upload.


In the document they are added to the bottom by default but if you prefer to control the placement, set the cursor and then hit the down-arrow just right of the paperclip and choose the attachment you want in this position.


That is how you add an attachment to your forum post.

Thanks, seems obvious now but in some of the other forums I follow you can just drag and drop or copy/paste a photo.
