trying to attach an image to my post topic and have tried using 'insert image' button, also tried the additional options below which reads 'notify me of replies' 'return to this topic' 'dont use smileys'  but cannot see any 'browse' command to get image from my PC.
The insert image icon only gives    any ideas what I should do?

All help is appreciated as I am still finding my way around the site.

Hi Magnus...

If your pictures are saved in your own photo hosting account ? Like Photobucket or FlickR ? Then here are the instructions for that..

If you would rather use the forums photo hosting option ?

That is now fixed.. Here are the instructions for that.

Let me know if you need more help  Smiley

Hi  George

Still   struggling to upload  an  image  jpg  from  My Pictures

Is there  any way to    just  copy  and  paste  into a  message  on this   forum?

I can      "copy"  but    I cannot  paste

Cheers

Have a look at this and if you need more help, just ask.. We will be sure to get you to know how..

Remember.. When using the forums hosting option, the image will not show up until you actually post your posting.

If you copy and paste an image from Photobucket or FlickR to the post using the img code, it will show up in the preview prior to posting.

Hi George

I am about  to  try and  insert  an image in a new posting  ( as opposed to    appending  an image  which is  easy)

I  needed to  check the instructions,   and I  knew that  they were  somewhere. But it  took me   quite a   while to  find  where  they  were (  in the  Member's  Lounge)

Could  I suggest   you   create  a New  Section on the  Home page   just  for  " How to  mount and append  images   onto the Forum"    with  the  instruction threads  inside ?

I can imagine that   a   new Newbie    will  go through all the  problems  I   and others  first  had , and you   will have  to keep  repeating the  instructions  over and  over again

If  you  agree, to this  suggestion   you  can copy  the  string  below (  or  rather, relevant   extracts  therefrom) in this new  section

Also  needs   2   new  strings   in this new section :

1. " what is max  size / max  quantity  of  images  I can  append as attachment"  and

2.  "what is  max  size/  max  quantity of images I can  insert? "

I think  answer   to  1 is    400  kB  / 10

But I don't know the answer to   2

Cheers  Peter

There is a pinned thread within the forum category, "General Forum Information and Guides" called "How To Post Images To The Forum".

I think it has everything in there, but have added the amount of attachments per posting which is 15120 kb

Hopefully a newbie will read the General Forum Information and Guides.
