But don't all the pics just end up at the bottom of the post anyway?
EDIT: I didn't realise you could do that...haha...Thanks Todd!!!

No worries AB, That's the only way i do it, the only thing i hate is it doesn't use my original file names, would make it so much easier when doing multiple pics. Oh well I'm sure there is a logical reason for doing what it does, its something probably 2 do with duplicate files issues
Yep, I assume that this would cause problems if duplicate names were uploaded so it just changes the attachment in numerical order of how many attachments are on the forum, etc.
Kind of like the Y2K bug where the whole world was apparently going to crash...lol
Makes sense I guess!
Thanks Todd, can't beleive i didn't figure that out. Was so focused on the attachment part i didn't see the ATTACH tags. Thanks Again Scottu
I think she used photobucket Kat...When you show a picture that is on another website like photobucket it shows it big.
When you attach a picture to the forum it shows a thumbnail of the picture and you need to click it to make it bigger.
Unfortunately I can't make the thumbnails bigger as it risks crashing the forum.
who on what thread *L*, will have 2 have a look sorry Kat, bit behind on the forum @ the moment..... could be many things, do you go advanced when doing the post with pics, I'm pretty sure ( if i remember correctly ) and I'm not sure why but it you reply 2 a thread and use the insert image Attachment 5536 icon the pics come out smaller than going advanced and using the paper clip Attachment 5537 icon.
And also as AB has mentioned Photobucket makes them display bigger
hey AB,
When I try to upload a pic it only asks me from a url not on my computer. This doesn't change even in the advanced. Unfortunately, I don't have a photobucket account and not keen for one either. Is there someway to get this fixed?
Hi mate, when you click the go advanced button you need to click the paper clip symbol =http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...tor/attach.png
This allows you to attached pics from your computer.
Those Mac who ever they are makes a good lot of Irish whiskey as well. Nice family, makes me feel so good about myself.
AB Tks for the helpful write up. I wanted to post some pictures of my rig but am unable to load a photo as it only comes up as the URL input option. My pictues are all on my c-drive. I am pressing the image icon however is does not have the browse option?
In the advanced reply page you need to click the drop down arrow next to the paperclip icon.
This will open the image loader and you can browse the harddrive.
To insert the pic into a certain spot of the write up, once pics are uploaded and you have the cursor where you want the pics click the paperclip and then the image you wish to set in the text.
Hope this helps
It's actually a crappy design, I get asked this question daily through pm and emails.
Why didn't they put that on the main reply page amazes me.
Ill try and see if there is a mod to move it on the main reply section within the threads themselves.
Thank you for the instructions, however when I click on the insert image icon, it auto defaults to a request for a URL, does not give offer as indicated in your example
Thanks
