Adding images to threads

I have looked at other threads in this section on this subject, and read them, but I still cannot attach photos to my posts I have right clicked on the forum code box, but this just moves the cursor. Left clicking does the same Highlighting the box does nowt, and try as I might, I cant get the select all drop down box to appear What am I doing wrong?

Also, when I upload photos, I am told that I have 6 photos in my queue, but they are not in my gallery. How do I access these images so I can process them?

All help appreciated.

You did DOUBLE right click, didn't you?

I still have problems. You could try and copy-paste the link (from the address bar) but I don't know if it will work.

Archive is the best place to post pics immediately. I often have to go back there and then SEARCH using my username - but they are there as soon as I need them.

All help appreciated.
when you have highlighted all of the characters etc in the box, are you right button on mouse clicking on the highlight and choosing the copy option ?

Which browser are you using? It's working fine on IE and firefox, but might have a problem on Safari.

Images in the gallery queue don't show until they've been moderated by the gallery editors

Re: Adding images to threads

The people in the library seem to think the browser is Netscape, but they're not sure
I cannot copy and paste the forum code as the toolbars on the computers (in this library) are locked, and I cant change them
I have tried everything, highlight, left & right click, single, double and quadruple click, cursing and kicking but I still cant add an image to a post
Has anybody got any other (polite) suggestions

One you have got all the forum code highlighted just press the control key on the keyboard, hold it down and press the C key this will copy the code.

Then in your post put the curser where you want the photo and then press the control key again and hold down as before and press the V key. This will paste the code into your forum post.

Hope this helps
Roger

in that case i would imagine that they have also disabled the edity, copy etc option which is supposed to come up on right click - how odd.

this leaves you slightly stuffled - but you could write down the forum code (from the box below the pic) the retype it into a thread - that ought to work
