Can anyone give me a hand posting pictures. I thought I was pretty tech savvy but I guess not.

I sympathize with you because I am a self-professed technoramus.

All you have to do is click on the "mountain" icon and it will guide you through it.

^^^ This is correct, right there! Hitting that icon will take you to pictures downloaded on your computer.

This is now the best way to post pictures. Do NOT use sites like PhotoBucket.com anymore.

Did you just start having problems yesterday? Because I have been posting photos for years without issue, but yesterday afternoon it was giving me fits. I think there could be a problem with the site?!?

I had a issue a couple times also.I reported it to the HELP Section.When the yellow mountain gave me trouble.I went to the other method of posting.The MANAGE ATTACHMENTS
AREA.Clicked on that,then added to the down load list.Then followed instructions.
Sometimes when you add the little icons.The choice to your right.The thumps-up,smiles etc. Your pictures won't show up.When posting.
Simply EDIT,Then go back and add photo's.

Dale, check out Post #3...that is the way I now load pictures online to CorvetteForum-by clicking on that icon with the mountain on it! This will take you to the pictures you've saved on your computer.

I use a Mac and have all my pictures stored on my computer. But it will also take you to any other web host too!

If you're still having issues, let me know. I hope this helps......

In the Help section there's the following sticky:
https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...-pictures.html

We ask that all members take the time to read all Stickies and Announcements as they contain important and frequently asked information.

Note that we're currently experiencing some technical difficulties with images so it may not work 100% correctly. We are investigating the issue.
