Admin:

How come my status at the bottom of the page says:
You MAY NOT post attachments.
Is this why I cant just paste a picture into my thread?
How can I do what others obviously can do?

Doug

Welcome to the insanity!

Attachments are different than images. I do believe everyone's profile states they can not do attachments. (at least us mere mortals and not moderators)

To post pics you have to first upload your pic(s) to a location on the internet and then in your post, click on the "Insert Image" button (directly below the right side of the font "size" box) and then place the whole address to the pics within the box that appears. To finish click the OK button and what ends up within your post should look something like this.

Note that the image tags (img) are misspelled (image) so they will show up here and not actually try and display a picture.

Hope this helps. Good Luck!

It's a big forum with lots of activity and people already bitch about access issues. If they let folks post attachments their available space would get jammed and then folks would bitch that they can't get into the forum!

Damned if you do or don't.

Hey Komonan! He wasn't complaining about not being able to post attachments, only about the Rube Golberg round-about way of putting a picture on the system. It is neither intuitive or easy, but it does function.
