Don't forget your allowed file types: jpg, gif, kml, png.
You may have to change your extension to one of these formats.

Hi rennie. Check out my attachment. Circled in red you will see "Add Images" and to the right with the sorry looking big red arrow you will see it says "more attachments".

Well, something went wrong during my little project and the "Browse" button was lost. However, if you scroll down on the "Post reply" page to where that big red arrow is you will see that "Browse" button to the left of "more attachments". Click it and it will bring up a list of files on your computer. You will then select the file/photo you wish to post, then double click it.

When you post your reply the photo should be included.

As mentioned you are only able to upload files that end with .jpg, .gif, .kml, or .png. Also as mentioned, if your photo fails to load it may be too large as is and need to be reduced in size which can easily be done in "paint".

HOW DO I DOWN SIZE A PICTURE? I HAVE XP PRO

 

[DigginThePast]

Open the program "Paint".

Then click "File" and then "Open". This will bring up the folders/files on your computer.

Select the file you wish to work with.

With the file/image open click on "Image". This will open a drop down menu.

From the drop down menu, click "Stretch/Skew". This will open another box.

In this box you will see "Stretch" with options for "Horizontal" and "Vertical". The %'s for these will be at 100.

Change the value from 100 to your new percentage (either shrinking or enlarging) and click OK. In the case of your photo I used "30" which changed it's size to 30% of your original.

Save the newly sized photo as a new file soo as to retain your original.

Shout again if you need more help.
