These wise guys from Wood said it would easy getting around this site. I done flunked out in the picture posting area....Learn how to shift one car then they discontinue it. But come to think of it I didn't see any pictures that has been posted by an ex Wood guy. That was my pet peeve on Wood,     HEAR SAY

Computers is not my game and no I don't even own a cell phone. But I got a tool or two and if I live long enough will learn what I got them for.

 

It said somewhere , create an album. That button gives me an empty box so maybe you guys can imagine what I wanted to put there.

 

Just to let you guys know I am all wind so don't give up on me.

 

Hello Patch!

When you are posting something, look down at the bottom of the text box and you will see a "paper clip" with the words Drag Files here to attach, or choose files...

 

That is how you upload your photos - I use the choose files. From there, you find it on your computer, highlight or click on the photo and hit the "open" button. Your photo appears below. Then you can double click on your photo to edit the size and location of it in your post.

 

If you go to the scrap bin of the forums, under network and tutorials, there is a post about posting photos.

 

If all else fails, email one of the guys in charge and they can walk you step by step through the process

Like Kelly said, it's not too bad. Plus, they size isn't as restrictive as the puny pics you had to use over at Wood. I just posted one in the shops forum, found it to be easier than most places.

Don't let it hold you back, if you have problems let me know and I help you with the process. I usually open a post them in a small window open my pictures and just drag all of the ones I want into the box. Then when you get to where you want to insert a picture you click on the + on the picture and it will appear in your post.

 

By the way, welcome to the site. Thanks for coming over.

 

I thought the word, drag files meant what it says. I drug everything I could find and nothing moved.

Jess, when you click "choose files" it should take you direct to your folders and then choose "picture libraries and click open" then click on the picture and click open again and the picture will go to your post.  Click on the picture at the post and it will appear under what you have typed.  Hit the space bar and type in more words or just pick another picture.   

Jess I have been posting pictures and just learned something about how to get text over the right pic. Thanks to @John Moody for that.

I do thank each and every one of you for your help. Computers and wood shops are two different animals. I'll try a little harder with my eyes closed. Maybe that will help.

Welcome Patch, You'll figure it out then get back to showing us your good work.

I thought I welcomed you aboard a couple days ago, but do not see it...

Welcome aboard, Jess!!

Cal

 Welcome Patch its good to see you.

Belated welcome Patch since you were here well before me...just to let you know I made it over from the other side. Hope my email didn't scare you into hiding!  I guess you're stuck with me again! Looking forward to seeing the progress on the clocks. Dave aka "Carl"
