I'm ready to post some pics, but it's been so long, I've apparently forgotten how. I've got them in MY PICS in MY GARAGE here on the forum, but can't remember how to get them into a thread.

Help, please!

    You don't have to actually put them in "the garage" anymore. After you reply to topic there is a thing that says "add file". Choose that and select from pictures stored on your computer that are re-sized to small. After you choose the pictures you click "insert", so that the picture is opened in your post. Not just an attachement within your post.

    Atleast that's what I'm doing. Seems to work good.

    Thanks, Bent. I tried that and I got a screen that said, "Fatal Error . . .", blah, blah, blah . . . basically my pic was too big. I made a smaller pic and got the same message, so I made it as tiny as I possibly could and it said it was still too big and that I am most certainly a techno-retard. Seriously. It said that. Don't know what else to try. Should be a no-brainer, but not for TR's, apparently.

    Hit the "EDIT" button on one of your own posts & then the "ADD FILE" button (shows at the bottom of the post being edited. The forum program automatically resizes photos so attached . I use photos in the 'jpeg' format but the forum offers other suffix's also.

    Try it again with the pictures re-sized as "small". Just like you did before. This time when it says fatal error, ignore it and continue. See if it works.

    Ok, mine said "fakepath", not fatal error.
    And to follow what "essex28-1" said, I did not resize and it posted the picture just fine. As he said it would.:)

    No luck. And no "continue" button. Just the fatal error message.

    Email a couple pictures and I'll see if I can post them for you.

    Lets see if the pics I sniped off your blog will come out. And they did.

  • What size should a picture be as sometimes it takes up the message space and other times it is added as an attachment? and I get a Fakepath message?

    Rick-

    Thank you very much. The problem is that there is no "Properties" to select once I right-click on the selected picture.

  • Good top see your convertible again... how are you coming on the switch back to Hudson power?

  • Still has the rocket motor in it. So I can move it around. Sorry about the hijack finally figured out how to post pictures.

    That's not a hijack, glad to see your pics. I'm partial to step-down convertibles, anyway.
