Picture posting help wanted please

[Fred47M]

Not great at computer stuff, but i want to post a picture on here. With a question. Do i do the optional image url on the message post? How do i get it from phone to there if thats right. It would be a picture of a picture. So may not show good anyways. Any help would be appreciated!

The optional photo link deal is to allow you to link a web address to show a picture. That won't do what you want to do.

When you make a message, scroll down and click on the small type "upload photo" that I circled in green.

Then "choose file" and select the pic from your phone/tablet/computer.

Then "upload" and might need to wait a bit.

Then "continue" and you can preview and send your message.

New folk are blocked from posting a photo, might have to post 5+ messages so you aren't a new spammer posting ads here......

One thing about phone pics... I think you need to flip the top of your phone toward the LEFT when you are snapping the photos, so they will show up here correctly oriented in landscape view (otherwise they will be sideways or upside down).

Regarding photo file size - if they won't post due to be larger than the accepted file size, then you will need to do another shout out here... as I don't know how people resize pics on their phone because I always transfer my pics to my computer and then work from the computer.
