Help posting image in BK forum

MrFurleySun May 30, 2010 6:17 pm

Hey friends,
I'm trying to post a pic of my BK patch on the forums but every time I hit the  "insert image" button,  it asks for a URL. When I do paste a url,  it only shows the url address and no address. The pic I want to post is on my computer.

Is there a way to post a pic from my computer?  Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
McFurley

The only way to post a picture from your computer without first uploading it to the web (through a site like Photobucket or Flicker) is by adding an attachment to the post. You can do this in one of two ways:

The first way is if you started the thread, there should be a section below the Message Body area that says "Add an Attachment" with a space for file name or using the browse button to locate the file. Then you must click the 'Add Attachment' button before posting, or the file most likely will not be added. You don't have to put anything in the File Comment spot.

The second way is during a reply. You actually have to hit the reply button on the bottom of the thread in order to see the correct "Add an Attachment" field. A quick reply does not have this option so that's why you might have missed it.

Um, quick note. It seems that the server has reached it's max on holding attachments, so that might be another reason it won't work. Need to get a hold of Mr. T and see if this can get fixed.
