are you using photobucket ??

it might be something with the updates Rob just did too.

laurabolyard · 05-09-2008, 12:55 AM

it started happening directly after the updates, but I see others posting pics NORMALLY!!

Methinks there is a difference between "attaching" the images, as you've done above, versus "embedding" them using the picture tool in the "reply to post" menu.

Interesting!!!!! I have ALWAYS used 'manage attachments" . I didnt even know there was a picture tool! I am not doing anything differently, but it may be working differently now. Thanx, I'll try the other!

I just upload my pix to Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket and paste the IMG code into my post.

Ive been taking the long way around, resizing them in photbucket, saving it in my pictures and browsing throuh from 'manage attachments'! definatly the long route! I'll try that, I dont know what image code is, hopefulloy it will be apparent when I get there!

***lReef lKeeper*** · 05-10-2008, 02:12 AM

it is the bottom code on photobucket under each pic.

And you just click on it and it is automatically copied.

laurabolyard · 05-10-2008, 10:38 PM

I dont believe you, but just to play along, I will give it a try...

OK, I click on it, it says copied, then what?

WOW!!!!! I did it!! That WAS easy!!! AND my photo is BIG!!!!

its a lettuce slug laying eggs. I DID IT!!! Boy I WAS doing it the hard way!! Now. If I want pics from my hard drive? They will show up as a clickable attachment still. yes?

**CarmieJo** · 05-11-2008, 03:08 AM

Yes, or you can upload them to photobucket...
