    Am I the only dope that can't post Pix?

    I see others do it, I know it can be done. No prob getting them in the gallery...for the life of me, I can't figure how to get them into a post. The "pictures" icon, under the smilies is gone, and I can't find it's replacement. Someone please walk me thru it once....like you are talking to a six year old, please.( my wife would say you are) Wayne

    Thumbs up

    Keep scrolling down until you see "additional options", then click on "manage attachments"...then browse pics from your computer & upload.

    I can't figure out how to upload from my gallery either, & the best I've done so far is a thumb nail...come on you young techno types...help a couple of old guys out...pleez?

    Mr. Chopper,

    you can either:

    open a pic (click on it) so that it brings up the gallery page of that pic.
    Under the pic where it says "linked thumbnail", COPY it.
    (for some reason it won't let you copy just some of it, and it won't copy from my mouse either, so...)
    CONTROL-C that entire link.

    now when you want to put the pic in a thread, CONTROL-V (paste) it in, then delete the "[/url]" at the end, and everything before the "[img]http..."

    Now if you want it bigger, and not thumb-sized, also delete the "/thumbs" that's in the link.


    What's a little easier, though it doesn't put them IN the thread is to just link the pic in the thread for easy access.

    yep! you can also replace "/thumbs" with "/medium" on really large photos to make them a more manageable size
