Cycling UK Forum

Hi.

Having problems uploading images to this forum for the first time.

I have a thumbnail of the images i want in one section of my screen.

BROWSE does not appear,but CHOOSE file.

What next?
I`m sure it`s something VERY obvious,but i`ve tried all i can!

Cheers

After clicking on Post Reply, the screen changes to where you can type your reply.

If you scroll down a bit you should see this:You browse to your picture, click on "Add the File" and it loads via a small window.
Then, you get a little bit under where you're typing to "place inline". Move your cursor to where you want to insert the picture, then click on "Place inline".

If you don't see it just like I've described, perhaps you're not using the same board preferences to me.

What are you on? The default is Prosilver. In which case, it looks like this:

"Browse" is the same as "Choose" - different web browsers use different labels for this button. Whatever the label, it will open a file chooser where you can select the file on your local machine to upload.

Hi guys.

Sorry,have only JUST seen your replies!

I have progressed actually.

The problem i have is finding the file that i(Hopefully) have compressed!
Once i have mastered that,i should be ok.

Cheers

That must be the place I put my spare valve stem dust caps. Somehow they vaporize. For Mac users there's a tool Quick Resizer (name explains all) that's quite handy. You'll have to Google it.

For Mac users ...... use Preview, you don't have the Google anything.

Go to Tools/Adjust Size and resize to your heart's content.
When you've resized, do a CMD/Shift/S and give it a new name maybe, and at the same time you can change the file format if you want.

Simple.

Good point Mick. Quite right. Always learning something here.

OK, So I am two days new to the forum,
My "Post a New Topic" window does not have the tabs (Options, Upload Attachment, Poll Creation).
I only see "Options" and "Poll Creation"

So maybe this post is dated?

Try again now?

New users aren't allowed to Upload attachments until their first posts have been approved.

I'm also having difficulty with the process of posting pictures off my laptop.
Do you have a link for this?
Thanks very Kindly
John

When you create a new post, or reply to a post, there are tabs displayed below the "POST A REPLY" box, with tabs labelled "Options" and "Attachments".

Click on the "Attachments" tab, and then "Add files". Then navigate to the required image on your laptop, and select it. The image will upload, and then you can add it to your post (where the cursor is).

Hi
I’m new to the forum and trying to upload photos.
However I don’t have an option to upload attachments.
Can you help please?

I’ve saved as a draft at the moment.

Welcome to the forum. There is more than one way of adding photographs to posts - see this thread for details: viewtopic.php?t=155004
