John You must resize your pic to less than 100 kbs to upload it. ( I use a site called " Picresize " to do that but others have different ways of doing it). The way I add a photo to a message is to submit the message and then edit it. On the edit screen it gives you the option to add a file and then submit it. The only way mine usually fail is when I forget to resize down to less than 100 kbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BGD Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 I don't suppose that as part of the site relaunch, the tiddly "100kb" limit on photo file sizes has been increased at long last? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terry1956 Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 hi, if you use photobucket, you can add a link to the picture site so the picture can be as big as you want, or you can embed the picture with your message. michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meadows Engine Posted April 8, 2011 Author Share Posted April 8, 2011 Thanks for all your help guys, I have to admit I got into a right mess trying it out, Whilst I have a photobucket account and my picture was on there in the end it seemed to take it straight from the file on my computer! But any way you got me there and the photo of the van weighing scale turned up on my posting Great, and thanks again John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 For some reason unlike other forums where you can use the photobucket img code you have to use the photbucket HTML code below your pic to get it to show??? such as this one of us at Kilkenny a couple of years ago! http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg152/ainacs/100_1542.jpg Regards Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
