How to ADD Images to Your Posts

Postby Michael Erlewine on Sun Jan 04, 2009 3:12 am

A number of you are having problems adding images to your posts, so let’s go over it. First add a new topic or reply to a previous post.

(1) ADD A NEW TOPIC or REPLY

(2) UPLOAD ATTACHMENT
When you reply to a post or create a new post, you get a screen that looks like the above. NOTE that below the text-entry box is a TAB that says “Upload Attachment.”

Upload an Image and Comment

(3) Next, you select the “Upload Attachment” Tab and you use the BROWSE button to select an image from your hard drive. NOTE: here the image is slightly to large, as you can see because scroll bars appear. Try to avoid this.
You elect an image AND (if you wish) title the image in the “File Comments” entry just below. THEN you click ADD THE FILE.

Place the Image INLINE

(4) And last, when the screen changes the image you just loaded will appear at the TOP of the group of images, if you have more than one. At this point, BEFORE you press “PLACE INLINE” be sure to position your cursor back in the EDIT BOX where you want the picture to appear. This is important. Then press PLACE INLINE.

You can preview the image (good idea) and when you are happy with the formatting, then press SUBMIT to make the post go live. You can always edit it some more.

Thanks - Michael Erlewine
