How can I Upload photos?

I'm not a very smart man.

Click on the red 'Reply to Thread' button on the left, either at the top of a thread or below the last post. Then when you have the 'Post Reply to Thread' (or the 'Post New Thread' page open, or even the 'Go Advanced' page under 'Edit this Post' page open) simply scroll down past the text field & the 'Post Icons' box under the text field until you get to 'Additional Options' - the 1st field there is 'Miscellaneous Options' but it's the next one you want, the 2nd field that is called 'Attachments'. Go there!

• Select 'Manage Attachments',

• then click on the top 'Choose File' button in the list displayed.

That'll open a dialog box that let's you choose files from your camera, your files, your directories, etc - find your source, select a file & then

• click on 'Upload' to upload that file before repeating it with the next 'Choose File' button until you've got all your chosen pics loaded *(see Note).

• Then 'close this window' and finally submit/save the changes to your new post/thread.

Your post will now show each image as a thumbnail, no issues with display sizes etc, and EVERYONE will be able to view them as thumbnails (unlike using the Insert Image option), AND if they want to see them larger, simply clicking on any one image allows your viewer to scroll thru them all in full size! :thumbup:

* Note: there is a limit to the number of pics you can load to each individual post - 5 (I think?) This limit is there so that you can't over-load viewers' devices or the system with too many/too big pics so that they hang or take forever to load (yes, that can still happen! :rolleyes: ) so if you want to be sure that viewers can actually see your pics, stick within that limit and if you need/want to load any more pics than that, simply post the first 5 pics, then submit that post, and then load up the next post, or however many it takes.... It'll be easier for people to read any thing longer by posting it in bite sized chunks too! ;)



There is also a sticky at the top of this Spyder General Discussion Index page that has some info that can help, especially if your pics load sideways or upside down - well worth a read. :ohyea:
