Posting pictures??

I am reading the instructions;



How do I attach a file to a post?
To attach a file to your post, you need to be using the main 'New Post' or 'New Thread' page and not 'Quick Reply'. To use the main 'New Post' page, click the 'Post Reply' button in the relevant thread.
On this page, below the message box, you will find a button labelled 'Manage Attachments'. Clicking this button will open a new window for uploading attachments. You can upload an attachment either from your computer or from another URL by using the appropriate box on this page. Alternatively you can click the Attachment Icon to open this page.
To upload a file from your computer, click the 'Browse' button and locate the file. To upload a file from another URL, enter the full URL for the file in the second box on this page. Once you have completed one of the boxes, click 'Upload'.
Once the upload is completed the file name will appear below the input boxes in this window. You can then close the window to return to the new post screen.


And I am not finding the 'Manage Attachments' button. I have tried 'New Post' and 'Post Reply'. Please help me show you my truck. I think you will like it. THANKS, Bob

The reason you don't see the "Manage Attachment" button is because your not a paid Subscriber. Only paid subscribers can post pics directly from their computer. You'll have to post your pics on a hosting website like "PhotoBucket" (for free!), then post the "http" link in your thread.

If you click the "post reply" blue button, you'll see the text box where you can type a reply... Just scroll down the screen a bit and you should see this area, where you can click on "manage attachments" to load photos to your post. When you click that button, it will open a little box that lets you select images to upload from your computer.

Ooops, I guess you can ignore my post... I've been a paid subscriber for so long, I didn't realize everyone doesn't have that option.

I think I did it!!!

Now, If you guys can coach me through a front axle swap, this truck could be a 4x4 again. Right now it does not have a left front axle assemble (do to a little to much log pulling in reverse), so it is a 2x4. From everything I have read, I should look for a 78 or 79 with disc brakes and the high pinion. Thanks for helping me get the pictures where you could see them. (I hope it's working). Any advice on the axle swap would be appreciated.

Your link doesn't work. How did you put it in the post? You cannot just copy and paste.

There is a little icon ( square box with what looks like a mountain in it) Click that box and paste the copied code from the host into the pop up box.

The url you posted led me to a host site with other pictures on it. If that was your site, Nice Harley! I ride a1947 Indian.......

Look for unnecessary "tags" in the url you copied. Also when the pop up window appears there is already an "http" in the box. you need to "backspace" it out THEN paste in your link.

Is this not working for you?

In my 'Try Again' post, I can click on the"http" (highlighted in blue) and I can copy and paste the url for my flickr site----Both ways will bring my album on flickr.

Thanks for working through this with me.

Try Again #2

http://www.flickr.com/photos/wvbob/s...ith/5119062786

I just copied and pasted the above???????????





when I backspace through the "http' and paste my url. The red x appears.

I read somewhere here to put 'URL and /URL' before and after my url. I tried this and the red x appears.
