Forum and computer tips

Uploading pictures in your post.
There is two ways, firstly uploading from your computer and secondly linking to a remote site. If you upload from your computer you can only display 1 picture per post, any more and they simply appear as links.
1: So lets say someone has sent you a photo via your email. First, save the picture to your desktop. "Save attachment" is the usual descriptive, and your mail system will usually ask where, and you just select desktop from the pull down menu. Saving to desktop is usually best, that way you can see and delete and your computer doesn't get clogged up with files you've forgotten you'd saved.

So, once its saved to your desktop, go to WAB and do the usual reply to post or start new thread. You get this screen, and notice at the bottom of the screen is the grey bar with the heading "Additional Options"

So, if you scroll down the screen you will see this: notice the button labeled
"Manage Attachments"

If you click on the manage attachments button, you will get this pop-up screen

press on the top browse button in the group of 4, select the picture from your desktop directory, and press the "upload" button at the bottom of the group of 4 browse buttons, NOT the next upload button down the screen. The upload may take some time, depending on the size of the file and the speed of your connection.

If it has uploaded successfully, just below the browse buttons you will see this

Press the "close this window" line at the top of the pop-up screen, press "Submit Reply" just the way you normally do et voila, a picture from your desktop is attached to your post.

Any questions, post them here.

What a kindly and obliging soul you have Harry.

I'm beginning to think some of my ancestors were Luddites, as I seem to have inherited their genes.

Thanks much, Parihaka. Even I can follow those well thought out & concise directions.
