Editing Attached Photos
I am a supporter, therefore I can add attached photos to my posts. I keep them no wider than around 300 pixels, and smaller if detail isn't an issue.
My problem comes when I want to EDIT that photo. For instance, I recently wanted to attach the one at the bottom here to a thread in another forum. I thought it should be "whiter" than it was, so I brightened it up locally, and deleted the old attachment and re-attached the new version of the photo.
All I get is no attached photo. It's as though I had never submitted one at all. I have never been able to add a photo to a post using the "advanced edit" feature.
Am I doing something wrong, does my browser need some additional functionality (FireFox), or is this just a function of the system?

On edit: It didn't let me attach the photo here, either!

I wonder if the following has anything to do with what I'm seeing:
When I go to my user control panel, and click on "Attachments" (under Miscellaneous), all I get is a white browser screen.
Frustrating, especially since it may be a browser setting, I have scripting and Java both turned on, and specifically allow both ford-trucks.net and ford-trucks.com complete access.
Any other Supporters have a problem editing an attached .jpg?

Turns out, it IS some FireFox setting, as I tried IE, and it works as I would expect it to.
Just kinda' now wonder why FireFox will allow me to initially post a photo, and delete it too, and subsequently not allow me to edit it.
Rather than figure it all out, and thereby possibly change a desireable security setting, I'll just fire up IE when I need to change a photo.
Thanks, one-in-a, for your help. A big part of the fix was just knowing it was ME and not FTE. :-))

Why do I get only a white screen when I click on Attachments under Miscellaneous in my Control Panel?
It takes me to a screen at the following URL:
https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/p...ditattachments
but absolutely nothing shows up but the blank white screen.
I have the latest version of Java enabled and use the latest version of FireFox.
Can anyone post a screen shot of what I SHOULD be seeing?
Just so we don't blame Mozilla, it does it with IE, too.

Hey Dennis,
Do you really think only a couple more days? This new picture posting thing is a complete mess. (not like the old one was any kind of dream boat to start with - but at least after 6 months of repeated use you got down how to do it and it worked).
Guys in all the posts are complaining and there are a lot of guys looking for photo's of fixes that we can't post. I submitted a ticket a four days ago after not being able to post for 2 weeks and all I got was a "We're working on it." Think maybe "the man behind the curtin" could put something out about what the problem might be and when they expect to get this fixed? Very Frustrating!

So, how does it look to others that click on "Attachments"?
