You can now upload photos straight into your forum posts. All you need to know is where your photo is stored on your computer.

Within your forum post, press the small icon with the tree on it (the caption says Insert/edit image). Then a new window will open.

To the right of where it says 'image URL' there is a small square icon. Click on that and a new window will open. Click upload lmage.

Press 'browse' and find the image on your computer and press open. Then press 'upload'. You will see your image appear in the bottom of the window. Click on the image/photo it will put the Image URL in for you.

Press insert and it's done.

You might want to make a new folder in which to store your photos where the box says 'Actions: New Folder'. Next time I upload some photos I'm going to make a folder called annmarie for example. Please note, you can't have 2 photos with the same name otherwise one will overwrite the other.

Have Fun

It works Ann and is easy to use when you know how.

I wanted to write 39 steps then changed it to 37

Why … That 39 steps was my favourite book when I was in school and Richard the Hero

Oh how I loved him.

I know 39 steps was a book and a film. But it's late in the day for me and my brain is not working so I can't remember what it's about.

I have to go in to the house now. I'm running late and I've not got dinner on.

Catch you tomorrow hopefully

Hmmmm. That's strange! There is no little drop down box on the end of image .

I shall fiddle with it!

Our letter boxes are at the front gate. And the postielady arrives on a motor scooter. We can hear the distinctive noise of her scooter coming down the street so she knows most of us as we meet her at the post box and, of course, she knows our names!

Our postman comes around in a little red 'Postman Pat' van. In town they have pushbikes. They keep changing our postman so we don't know who we are going to get from one day to the next.

Not sure what you mean. You're right there is no drop down box. A new window will open. You can still upload the images the old way if you prefer.

Thats the bit that's missing AnneMarie, the little square box.

Strange but don't worry I can still use Photobucket.

So you don't get the button I circled in red?

I have two ideas:

1, You have a very good firewall and it's blocking it.

2, Because you're not in Europe. (Don't know why that should make a difference)

But neither make sense to me. I have to turn my firewall off for certain things, but I have not needed to for this to work.

It's BIG BROTHER. I know on YouTube sometimes you can't watch certain links. We love American Football and in the 2009 Superbowl there was a touchdown by a big defensive player, an absolutely huge man. He ran the entire length of the field and could not believe he had not been caught. On an American comedy TV show they did a spoof of it where he needed oxygen at the end of the play. We only saw a small clip and I wanted to see it all but it was blocked because we are in the UK.

Sorry. My fault it was not working. I had forgotten to set the right permissions in the forum control panel.  I thought everyone could use it but I didn't realise only I could see and use the little icon. Now you should get the little icon and everyone should be able to use it if they want to upload photos.

I am killing two birds with one stone. (what a  horrible thing to do.)

Looking for the little button and……..

I hope some of you will find time to go.

I have this photo from my Home-Page  showing his works
