RodH 4,820 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Insert picture or video You have likely noticed there is no "insert picture" or "insert video / YouTube" buttons on the New Topic composition toolbar at the top of the post box. You can either copy/paste or drag n drop pictures directly into your post so long as they are jpg / jpeg / png or gif files. Your image will first appear in an 'upload' window at the bottom of the screen, once the upload is complete, click on it and it will load into the body of the post at the point of the flashing cursor. As you add images they will all appear in the upload window. Resizing is available directly by left clicking on the inserted picture and dragging one of the corner frame points to change the size. Also, you can edit the uploaded picture by double left clicking on it which will bring up the 'Image Edit menu. Direct image links Web images: right click on the image and select copy image then paste directly into your post. You do not need the image link location. Resize as required. YouTube Videos Click on "Share" on the YouTube page. The highlighted link will appear, copy and paste. There is no need to get the embed code now. Removing images If you are editing a post and want to remove an image, You must to go to the Uploaded Images box at the bottom of the page and delete the image there. If you delete it only in the body of the post, it will not actually go away. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since your account is new, there is a (hopefully) short probation period where your account has limited use for security purposes. Once you receive more than 5 reputation points, you will advance to 'Novice' which will permit you to upload pics. We encourage new users to start an introduction topic in the 'Party Barn' - it helps to get past the 'Inbound' status in a very short time.

Walrus Gumboot 308 Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 What if I am a Novice and still unable to upload even a single photo from an iPhone? "You are only allowed to upload 1,003.52kb" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sk1Bum 9,803 Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 I can't answer that as I've never used an iPhone for net access. The only iPhone I've had was a III. I replaced it with a Samsung Galaxy, and I've never looked back. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would depend on your camera. Here's a link to an easy to use, freeware image editor. https://www.getpaint.net/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
