• 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.

Hi folks,

As of now, I cannot determine how to upload photos on this site.

In the past it was quite easy. I just went to that little 'square thingy' up in the 2nd row above this post & did it.

Now, I can do everything, but when I click on 'Upload' or whatever it says, nothing happens.

Anyone out there got a simple & easy way to upload photos from my computer?

Oh, did I say it had to be simple & easy; I am NOT a computer guy.

Thanks in advance,

Jerry Baumchen

Hi Bob,

Re: What sort of operating system are you working with?

I can tell you only what I know. I have Win 10 on this computer. I also have Edge as my browser ( I think that is the correct term ). Oh, and I use Microsoft Picture Manager for all of my photo whatevers.

I just saw ARtraveller's post, so it would seem that I am not alone with this problem.

Anthony, you out there?

ok so you go to the little square picture looking thing click on that then click on from computer then you find the picture you want to post and double click on it. now here is the hard part you have to wait, sit back for a few and watch nothing happen then all of sudden it bang you see a lot of numbers. finish writing what ever you want and click post.

One more thing to help speed up posting a photo is to resize the photo. before you post go to your photos and click on the photo you will be posting then right click on it in the drop down box you will see an option that will say resize, click on that, now you can select the smallest size 0.25MP, then click save and it will save a copy of that photo in a smaller MP. that will load a lot faster when you save the copy rename it , I always add SL on the end of the original name so I know its been resized.

WOW, Thank You. It was really a matter of getting them small enough.

Who says this is not a great site?
