Hi Steve. Well, welcome back to AP.

Now, you know what I'm going to say: Post something, don't just tell us.

And still nothing miniature posted.
Why do you bother not posting here Steve?? It's a serious question.:th3:
I'll guess you just want to stay active so you can see my bird photos.:lol:

We all learn and forums work if people get a bit involved.
Even if you don't want to post photos.
"I like ....... because ....... ."
"Why did you ........"
Whatever

I have my reasons.

How do I insert an image from my computer?

I have my reasons.

How do I insert an image from my computer?

Up the top of this Page click on Library > How Do I..

Better still get yourself a Free flickr account and post the BBCode on your post and images at a larger size.
Need any more Help just ask.

Up the top of this Page click on Library > How Do I..



That only allows me to add a photo from an external URL, not to post directly from my computer.

And that is why I use flickr :nod:

I had no idea as I dont put my photos on this way I had to work it out

On your CC Post click the Go Advanced Button on the right of your post, go down to Manage Attachments > add a file > drag down to Attachments > click done.
That should do it.

Thanks,

After reading the "how do I" I realize that bandwidth and storage is an issue, so I will use the URL link to Flickr method.

Regards,

Steve

Steve. The "How Do I" section does also tell you how to "attach" images, ie, upload to
AP from your computer.

They must conform to: >>MAX<< 1200 pixels on a side and 400 KB in filesize.

In a NEW post you start, you are already in Advanced Mode (so you can attach images and do other stuff).
To add to an existing thread, click the Go Advanced button, then...

Click "Manage Attachments", browse your computer for desired pic(s) (though I do them singly for better control).
After that, click "Upload". In a few seconds it will show the image in your assets, and also in the space where it is
ready to place into the post. It will have a tick in a corner box. Normally, just click "Insert Inline", and the ATTACH
code will be placed at the cursor position. The image name will also appear in a box beneath the Manage Attachments
button.

You can cut/re-paste the ATTACH code and put spaces between multiple ones...

Thanks,

I figured that out after fiddling and reading the how do I. Using a new forum takes a bit of learning.
