Since the new software, I have not figured out how to post pictures. I suspect its a size reduction problem. Is there a way for the software to automatically download a picture so it will be posted without a pop up saying it exceeds the limits? If I remember correctly, thats how it worked before. I have noticed a few comments from other members about the same problem. So far, I have not been able to conquer it. I post my pictures from a sd card on my computer. I also have photo bucket but that involves extra steps. Neither has worked for me.

I just tested it again. I clicked on the "attach" tab. It did a pop up that let me browse. I chose my computer with J drive. That opened up the photos on the J drive (digital camera downloads to a flash drive). It started the download process. Then I get a pop up that says "sorry, you have already exceeded your limits. Continuing would exceed your allowable limits".

This time I used the "insert image" tab. I get a pop up saying "Could not find an instance of the editor". Whats the difference between insert image or insert file? Some times you get both options, sometimes you only get one.

The insert image icon doesn't work for me but I can drag and drop the picture.  If neither the icon nor drag and drop work, then the only option is photobucket or some similar photo hosting site.  That still works for me as well and should work for everyone because it is html which should have nothing to do with the issues related to the forum software.I actually became so accustomed to using photobucket because the upload feature has never worked for me, not even in the old forum, that it is pretty much all I use now.I've also moved this topic to "This n That."

It used to work good for me in the previous software but not now. I had the same problems at FTE but I went with photo bucket and that works great, just a longer process. I will have to give that a go.

The insert image is working great for me now, running windows 8. Only started working in the last couple of weeks.

Darrell I use a free graphics viewing program called Irfanview that allows me to modify the size of the image (photo).  I select the smallest size and do this before I use the attach feature.  Otherwise I get the same message as you do.

I use Firefox and all I do is open another tab (or even the same page) with the image I want to use, grab it with the mouse and drag into the reply box.
