Somehow I've missed how to do that. And I can't find it in the help section. I want to be able to insert pictures in my forums posts. Not sigs or icons. Thanks! |

It depends on your browser - using Firefox - I find the picture I want to post from the internet (it must be online, it cannot be a picture on your computer). I make sure I have two browser windows open - one with the photo and one with the Post a Reply box. I click my left mouse button and while holding it down, drag the image to the Post A Reply box, then release. The image shows up in the Post a Reply box. I haven't had any luck with other browsers. |

I have IE and I copy and paste the pics I want to post. They have to be on the internet already, like on Facebook, etc. |

I was hoping to use pictures from my computer. Urgh. I'll go look for a picture hosting site then. Any good suggestions? Or where I could set up a free web page? I used to have one, years ago, but it's been a while and I don't even know if there are any free hosting sites like Geocities anymore.

You can just open the picture in your browser, it doesn't actually have to be online. |

I use photobucket for my online storage. |

Just to be more clear, you can use your browser to view a photo from your hard drive, and then you can drag it from there. It doesn't actually have to be uploaded to the internet at all. |

copying and pasting from my computer doesn't work in Firefox or IE. I can only get it to work if the picture is online.

I'm running IE8 on Windows 7 and I can't post pics either. Copy and paste doesn't work.Neither does the click and drag. I wish I could figure it out. :( |

I'm with Rhonda, no luck posting from my computer in Firefox or IE. All successful methods I've read seem to involve an online pitt stop...something about acquiring the proper formatting? ETA - for clarification. I can post an avatar pic from my computer, but not in the body of a post.

Yep, I've tried multiple times to post a photo from my computer using instructions members shared here, but no good!
Just tried again--- the profile page actually has been updated since I last tried, it appeared it worked, but I can't "see" it on my posts yet! Last Edited on: 1/14/11 5:58 PM ET - Total times edited: 2 |
