Here's a technical one for all you techno wizards out there!

How do I upload a photo onto a thread or PM please? Answers in layman's terms (for techno dummies!) I use an Apple Mac Book Air if that makes any difference. I've tried uploading a PDF and also dragging from my desktop but neither worked. I don't have problems uploading to emails.

Jenna and I need to exchange and compare photos of an azalea.

Thank you x

I think you have to upload your photo to an image hosting site first, then copy and paste the code into your post using the 'insert image' icon 

[nearly50]

Yeah, you need to put a url in between these, they come up when you click on the insert image icon (below the bold one)

[Elizabethrose]

Are you ladies speaking English?!! 

I have no idea what an image hosting site is BJ and as for an url well, I have no idea what that is either nearly50!

Dumb schmuck I know but could you simplify further please x

[nearly50]

sorry 

You could use something like photobucket http://photobucket.com/
to upload your picture, they'd give you a link and you'd put it in between these two and then post.


bit of a rigmarole and probably why you don't see many photos on here!

[babyjane]

could you and Jenna share your pics on facebook, that is much easier 

[Elizabethrose]

Thanks nearly50. Haha you must think I'm an even bigger technophobe than I am. I know what an URL is just didn't know it was called that!! Might just exchange email addresses, it would be easier! X

Thanks BJ, thought it would be as simple as sending an image by email, no wonder it didn't work! X

There were details on here several years ago written by Poppyrose but I can't find the link. I know it involved photobucket .
Maybe Emma can help us after the holidays.
Cazi xx

Why would you want to upload photos on here 

[Cazikins]

Why would you want to upload photos on here 

Why wouldn't you? - maybe to share something with others on here CLKD 

[Elizabethrose]

Thanks ladies.

CLKD, Jenna and I are trying to compare our azaleas to see if they are the same. I have no idea what mine is called and she thinks it may well be the same as hers. xx

Cazi, yep Emma may well be able to help though Menomale has offered a potential solution which I will try later xx

Can't think why but this really amused me this morning (sorry  )

This is an easy way. Just go to the website (no need to sign in or anything like that):

https://postimage.io/

Upload your photo and then copy the code from the 'Thumbnail for forums' and then paste it, just as it is, straight into your message.

This is the glowing embers azalea we are talking about:

[Cazikins]

Well here goes my try Jenna from your instructions.
