POST PICTURE

[Guest]

How do you post a photo on the forum ???

 

[Helen Goff]

tick box "embed picture" and click on the words "click here to upload"

a box will appear with a browse button, click that to selct the photo from your computor files,(theres a size restriction) once you've selected your picture click on "ok" it will load the file and tell you it done it click "ok" again and the box will dissapear(taking you back to your original message.. then post your message as usual...your picture should appear as a thumbnail

BTW you need to use the post reply option NOT fast reply as fast reply dosn't have the post picture option

Hi,

This is because there is a file size limit on the forum of 200Kb which is smaller than most modern digital cameras output as standard. If you are no very techy then use the Microsoft image resize tool to reduce the size of the picture before uploading it.

Download and install this: http://download.microsoft.com/download/whistler/Install/2/WXP/EN-US/ImageResizerPowertoySetup.exe

The right click on the picture you want to shrink and select 'medium'. You can then point to the new version of the file from the upload routine and all will be well.
