• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Attaching Pictures

My first try at attaching pictures to a new thread never turned right side up :gaah:. Drove me nuts for almost an hour trying to figure out how to solve this problem. Finally clicked on the question mark that's embedded in the round blue background in the File Upload Manager area. There it was - the specs for the different file types (Allowed File Type, Max File Size, Max Width, Max Height). With this info in hand, I went to the My Pictures folder. I resized the selected pictures, keeping in mind that the Max Width and Max Height are pixel sizes. That done, I was then able to attached the pictures into the thread right side up. :)
 
Chupaca, I apologize for not including the pics to illustrate the issue with attachments. The pixel size for the pic that's not right side up is 3024 x 4032; the pic that is right side up was resized to 600 x 800. In trying to duplicate this issue, I found another interesting thing with the File Upload Manager. A pic that has been resized to spec is uploaded into the Home Folder and also into the Attachments Section. A Pic that has a pixel size greater than spec can be uploaded only into the Attachments Section but resized and be right side up :hun:. Yes, it is very confusing. Enjoy!

Deanna, I put them in a folder on my desktop then up load from there.
Under Quick reply:
Hit Insert image then click from computer then chose file.

If you talking about this:111.jpg

Then you need to open that pic and drag it to a folder on your desktop, then you can upload it.

*open pic first in google pic*

Wont work without opening pic
