    Hi, I noticed there is a way to attach a picture to a post. My problem is the picture or file resides on my PC and not on a web site, so I would like to have a way to browse, or search my PC files, then select the file I want to attach. How can I do this here?

    Thanks:biggrin_25520:

    Yes.

    Select User CP. Go down to edit avatar. Curser down to Option 2 - Upload Image From Your Computer.

    to make it even "easier" to attach ANY picture form your computer to say a posting you wish to show us (not an avatar), go to: www.photobucket.com and join up (its free), then you upload to Photobucket, then you would click onto the Photobucket link, and paste it here.

    Once you create a post, scroll down to manage attachments. You will be able to browse and choose what file to upload from your computer (whether pic, doc, music etc). For videos go to either youtube or vevo and just post the link directly to the post. here's 2 examples
    http://www.youtube.com/

    The methods described by Heirforce1 and Gears is the preferred method, as your image will load faster for other members when they read the thread, and because we don't prune images, unlike photo sharing sites.
     
    Big Don Thanks this.
