1. Hit 'Post Reply'. Scroll down to 'Manage attachments". Click it.
2. When the box opens, hit 'Browse' and find the pic you want to post. Double click it, then click 'Upload' and wait till it uploads.
3. Return to the main box. Enter explanatory text. Hit 'Submit Reply' and you're done.
and that works really really well if you have already optimised your pics for the web using something like irfanview or some other batch image processor.

Probably not possible with the ones in the General category but in the other categories something might be able to be done.
ahhh, stickys.
a great idea that doesnt work
the problem with stickys is nobody reads them,,,
IF everybody abided by the joining acceptance clauses we wouldnt need most of them.
We are very lucky as a web site, we have LOTS of members who dont mind explaining (politely even;)) to newbies (and some old bushies who should know better---) how things are done around here,,
a self-moderating feature I (WE!) am eternally gratefull for:cool:
and yes,,
lots of discussion in the mods pen about sticky reduction;)( and where to put awning threads, and spam and rude vids and------------)
hmm I don't have a sticky solution, but can say that I know where they are, what they're used for and yet I haven't read most of them. :angel:
I'm just keeping moderators in a job. I know they appreciate it. ;)
I read Inc's announcement about the addition of the Google search facilities at the bottom of the page. A lot of people obviously didn't.
At one stage there was a frame around them. I assume that was an attempt to draw attention to them. That has now gone.
It seems that people find that method of searching works well. Is there some other way to make it harder to miss the existence of that facility ?
if it was part of the popup when you click on search it might be better as i dont scroll to the botom of the page everQuote:
