Question for the tech people.
How do I insert a
pic off my files onto a thread?
I go to copy ,but when I go to paste it, there is no paste option?
Thanks in advance.
Bushy.

Bushy,
As a member you can insert Photos directly from your PC to a Thread, you do not need to have an external web hosting site to do it.
Use the insert image & Files Icon
Select the "Add Photos and Files" box in the top left of the pop up box that opens.
Select your photo from where you have it on your PC, hit the "Open" icon then the "Insert" and the system will automatically resize the
pic and insert it into your thread :)
Cheers Kev

Hi Kev,
I am interested in your reply above that you mention
"and the system will automatically resize the picture"
Is this a new feature? In the past I've always had to resize my own pics with VSO Image Resizer before inserting them, other wise it was a long wait for them to individually upload. If it is it will make the process much quicker.
Regards,
Mike.

Hi Michael
John,
I think that the system may automatically resize them now but it makes for a slower upload. I couldnt be sure as I always resize my photos first, as I have a lot of photos up. Doing it that way they are quick to upload. BTW most photos editors (we use a freebie called XnView) have a batch resize facility that might assist you - dont use it myself but I know of others who swear by it.
Cheers,
Val

You don't need to use Photobucket.
Its very simple...just use the Insert Image tab in bottom box when posting
The click on Add Photos & Files
Select the directory/location of picture on your own computer
Click on OPEN
Follow prompts for title, description etc
Cheers
