Don't know what I'm doing wrong but I can't seem to post any photos on this site; maybe it's not Apple compatible. if anyone has any tips on image posting using an Apple Mac I would appreciate it. otherwise I'll have to log on with the PC with its knackered network card.

Sorry Roger...missed this one....


TBH don't know about Macs....but in theory it should work the same I would have thought........

Two ways of doing it....1, the prefferred way (cos it doesn't use Paul's bandwidth or storage space) is to use an FTP programme (many free ones about) to upload the image to our own webspace (nearly all ISP's will provide some with your account)....then either click the IMG button at the top of the screen and enter the URL or insert it inbetween image tags

[im g]http://adress goes in here/remember to remove space inbetween im and g [/im g]


..the picture will then show up in your post.



The other advantage of this method is that you can show multiple picures in one reply.....try and keep them smallish (no more than 800 wide) so they fit on the average screen and don't take too long to load for those on dial-up.

Method 2 is to click the Browse button underneath the reply box..........then browse to the location of the image on your hard drive , select open and them submit reply.....DO NOT click preview because for some reason it won't show the picture after you do .

If this doesn't work, there must be some MAC thing going on and someone else who uses one will have to pile in and help

posting pictures

Roger, you should have not problem with Macs, I posted my 1st photo today, did it through the browse button at the bottom of reply message. as said before if you preview it seems to loose the attachment. Definitely not a Mac problem!!

You could e-mail them to Judge and he could post them for you. ;)
 
Postin' Pix

Thanks y'all,
I was previewing every time and this explains why I couldn't see the pix.

I'll try again later.
Now I'm going to have to dig out a worthwhile photo!

Well I thought that would be to easy! Don not hav a browse button facility. I note that under the forum rules I do not have ability to attach files. Any thoughts on what I have done wrong? Is it something to do with me being a recent joiner?

Appreciate any help, want to put picture of my Gs on airheads section.

Cheers. Andy
