Unable to locate Add Picture link

Hello,

I seem to be having a case of the derps. I can't find the link anywhere to add pictures to my album I created, even after following the FAQ.

Attached is a picture of my page when I click on "photos" and the same page pops up when I click the name of one of my album. Am I missing something, or am I in the wrong area?

Ideas?

Welcome to the group. Have you tried the "Search" function (it's in the tan colored bar in the top half of the screen).

Here's one of the posts that popped up when I entered "posting photos" in the search box.

Good luck and let us know if this doesn't work. For sure, it seems that this could be made easier, but we're just glad to have the forum available.

Chris, the post above is how I do it and it seems you did it that way when you posted the screenshot. Is there some other way you want to do it?

I don't like posting pictures from somewhere else besides your PC. After a while, the source for the pictures seems to become unavailable and the pictures disappear in the forum. There IS a way though, to post full-sized pictures from places like "Dropbox", etc, but I don't use it anymore and I've forgotten the procedure.

edit your photo in your own photo shop or on your phone do something to it like crop just a little or zoom. Start a thread with a title or a question, or hit post reply... I hit go advanced, write something in the message area, and scroll to manage attachments choose up to five photos... upload photo.. close window.. preview to make sure the edit worked for proper orientation.. I think its why nobody posts pics.

Jack, what are you using as a browser because I have the same problem as Chris. BTW I'm using Firefox as my browser and I can't find anywhere on the page that lets you add photos or delete albums.

JackandJanet 03-04-2021 08:31 AM

Gary, I'm using Firefox too. I don't think you CAN delete something after a certain time has passed - a mod has to do it.

But to include photos in a post, you HAVE to do it in an "Advanced" dialog, "Quick Reply" doesn't have that feature. If you click on "Go Advanced", then you can scroll down to "Additional Options". The second choice in that section is "Attach Files". Click on "Manage Attachments" - that will open a search dialog where you can choose a ".jpg" image to upload from your PC.

Hope this helps.

I don't want to put photos in a post, I want to put photos in an Album. See at the top of page where it says "FORUM PHOTOS GROUPS" click on Photos it brings up the Album page
Create an Album but don't see anywhere to then add Photos.

JackandJanet 03-04-2021 02:22 PM

Let me check, thanks Gary.

OK, I see what you mean. I've sent a PM to the Administrators. This is something only they can fix.

Exactly. Thanks for helping, this is what I mean. I got a few photos of my HiLo I want to add to my album to share with y'all, not necessary add to a forum (got that down though)

JackandJanet 03-05-2021 08:31 AM

I haven't heard anything back from the Admins yet, but I'm sure they'll get it fixed.

We're still digging into this.... thanks for your patience.

Janet H 03-11-2021 05:58 PM

This should be working now - sorry about the delay; especially odd bug.

JackandJanet 03-11-2021 07:33 PM

Thank you Janet - Yes, it seems to be working now, at least for me.

- Jack

garyk52 03-12-2021 07:12 AM

Thanks Janet, works for me now.
