What is the approved way to post images?

Chichester · 2011-10-12 17:03:55

Hi... I have a question I'm wanting help with, but it needs an image to explain it. The problem is, I can't post an image; I can't post a link, I can't even post a hashed-up link with the word "dot" inserted where periods would appear in the link name. I'm told to "Please describe where" the image is, but I'm not real sure how to do that... what is the accepted procedure?

Hi Chichester;

Until you are member links have been disabled. Go to your address bar in your browser and cut and paste the address in your next post. I will take care of the rest.

hi

What about images? Are posts restricted until a full member?

If he is trying to post the link to an image inside his post then yes.

So he could upload an image?

Yes, I think so. That would be taken from his hard drive.

Hi... I did try uploading an image; I selected the file and the filename appeared in the box at the bottom. But when I clicked on Preview, the image wasn't there. And I don't know what you mean when you say "cut and paste the address in my next post". Any attempt to include a URL in my post results in a Preview message disallowing that. I tried to include it with *this* post, but I wasn't allowed to submit it. The image is at

h t t p : / / w w w . t n s t a a f l . o r g / m a t h / M a t h %20 C a s e s . p n g

but if I have to include it that way, nobody is going to go to the bother of looking at it. I'm going to try submitting with the image uploaded and see what happens...

Hi;

It appears you were successful.

Cut and paste is using ctrl x in the address bar. Or just highlighting and pressing ctrl c. Then you can paste it anywhere.

Honestly, I *can't* just cut and paste a URL into my posts... if I try that, I get a Submit or Preview warning, and the post is refused.

Hi;

I know. As soon as you get passed 10 posts and are a member you will be able to. Is the picture you submitted in the other thread all you needed to post, or is there more?

Chichester · 2011-10-13 15:38:42

Nope, that'll do it. Thanks for yor time!
