I was using a photo storage website till I found it linked to a Russian dating site,( I was wondering why i was getting emails from lovely young ladies). :D now I'm having no luck using the file attachment on here, is there a wee trick to it that I dont know??

Richard, I've just been posting them directly from my computer.

Go to Attachments and other options just below the input box, and click on the + sign.

There's a box under attach that says browse...

So you browse... find your photo... and upload it. That's it!

Did all that, it says the file size so I know its attached but when I hit post, nothing happens, just a white screen

It seems to work for me.  Maybe try it from a different web browser?  I was using Firefox.

It sounds like it has something to do with some of the settings on your computer? I know I go to some sites, and I cannot see the pictures even though other people can. Clearing my cache tends to help.

Found the answer, when i tried Firefox just a blank white screen, chrome said photos to large, so took new photos on the smallest setting on the camera, still said to big. So next I take photos with the phone and that worked, so buggered if I know.....

I increased the maximum allowable photo size dramatically. The server will now accept file sizes of up to about 6 Mb and resize them for display on the forum.

Thanks Joseph, the smallest setting on my camera was still too big to load, I'll have to test drive it now.

Hi,
Do you happen to  have that link to the Russian dating site?
