button to choose the file you want to

upload. Click it.

3. Choose file.

4. Post message.



It automatically posts the pic.
 
Chuck,

Thanks for adding this feature. The folks who used to handle my old method of uploading pictures to the internet have gone 'kablooie'! What a GREAT site you have developed.

Many thanks, once again,

Gary
 
File Restrictions

There is a file restriction of 256 KB files or smaller. The must be images. About any image type can be used. I have added .bmp. Try to crop the image and cut out un-needed space. It will make the file smaller and easier on the server.

Where is the "browse" button? I still haven't figured out this pic posting thing and I 've got some stuff I'd like to get an ID on. Sorry fellas, I'm still the "new guy" on the board. :grin:
 
Posting image test

ADMINISTRATOR: Took me awhile to realize there is no "Browse" button. here is my test.....

Well as usual, I tried using your IMG command with just the URL for my picture and could not see it in preview and I tried HTML code to access my picture and could not see it in preview and my picture is under your 256 k limit. Could someone please put a decent post out here so I can follow it and get some pictures posted.... I guess I'm pretty stupid and frustrated.

There should be an "Add an Attachment" button beneath the text box into which you entered your message. Click that and then a "Browse" button appears which allows you to select your picture file. If your browser has some compatibility issue with this site or you still cannot get it to work, eMail your pictures to me and I will post it/them for you.
 
Posting pictures

Nemo,

It sounds like you are trying to reference an html page containing the photo that you want to post. The add attachment will upload a file stored on your machine to the board but I don't think it will reference a seperate page. Try downloading the graphic file from the page to your machine and attach that image file through the add attachment button.

Hope this helps,
TomH

Lets discuss this.

What type of files and what restriction do your think I should put on files?

1) What type of files (.jpg, .gid, .bmp, .tiff)?

2) How bid is too big?

That's not a worm extraction. It's a carved bullet. If you don't believe, rotate it some to line up the curves and watch a neat little show. It will say something like US or CS.
