I'm not using Photobucket. Too much trouble. Trying to post directly off of my computer. What I am doing is typing my message, clicking on 'go advanced' and then clicking 'manage attachments'. Not working. Am I missing a step or two in the process? Thank ya'll..

Articap. I went to the link and it told me that the page could not be found..Try something else please..

Opened OK for me.

Here's what it says, with credit to the author, arcticap:

You can also upload the picture right into thehighroad server by clicking on the "manage attachments" button near the bottom of the posting/editing box under "additional options".

Once you click on manage attachments, a new window will open and you then need to click on "Browse" to search your photo files (or wherever you store your pictures in your computer files) for the photos that you want to upload one at a time.
They must be smaller than the max file size listed in the upload key that you'll find under "browse".
Then click on "upload" to upload a picture.


After uploading each photo file, a URL address for the photo's "home" in the THR server will appear in the manage attachments box as a link to click on to access.
Click on the URL link for each photo that you want to enlarge within your post so that it appears in your main window. Once it appears, copy and paste the photo's URL that's in the address bar at the very top of the window. Then "X" out the photo window. Then go to the reply box window again and click on the rectangular yellow photo icon near the top of your reply to thread box. Then paste the URL address of the photo into the box that will appear and then click okay. The URL address will now appear in your reply to thread box.
However, there will be a double HTTP:// in between the image tags that look like this: HTTP://HTTP:// YOUR PHOTO'S URL ADDRESS


You must now erase or eliminate one set of the HTTP:// but not both sets.

If done properly, that picture will now post full size after you click on save in your reply window.
If not done properly, only a thumbnail of the upload photo will appear at the bottom of your post which will need to be clicked on in order for anyone to view it full size.

You need to repeat the same procedure for every photo that you want to appear full size in your posts.
Make sure that your cursor is located in the exact spot of your post that you want your picture to appear when you click on the image icon. Or else you will have to move the entire UPLOADED PHOTO URL by clicking and pasting it to where you want it to be located.

By doing it this way, your photo file size may be more limited than by using Photobucket, but the uploaded photo will stay on thehighroad server without using up all of your limited photobucket space over time.

Whenever you want to get rid of one of your photos, or add another one, just reopen "manage attachments" window and click on Remove or Browse to change your attachments. There is a time limit and there may also be a limit to the number of photos allowed in each post (6?), but I'm not sure. You can always add a 2nd post with another (6?) photos though.

Yeah, I'vd been clicking on the manage attachments button but I cannot make the window open up. It opened up good for me a little earlier and let me post a picture of my '47's off of the computer into the is this Walker real post. I guess I'll try again. Maybe the site is just real slow..Thank's Mr. MyKeal....

Just use the "Post Reply" button, or the "New Thread" button.
Sometimes a picture is too big to use, then you will have to resize it. Do a Google search for resizing sites to get started. I have a personal page that I place my pictures on and they are automatically re-sized, I will then hot link that picture or copy it to this site.

testing....

Worked ok for me. If the window to load the image isn't showing up maybe you have some sort of popup blocker on your browser. When you click the button do you get a message at the top of the screen saying it can't open a window?

I've never tried to use the manage attachment , but here goes with a pic of my new little 1849 pocket revolver. I don't know what I did,I couldn't copy that url, but got the pic anyhow.

[GENTLEMAN OF THE CHARCOAL]

Let me try it again. I think I'vd got it down....Yeah, I'vd got it. I'm not leaving any pictures up right now I reckon but at least I know how. I just click on 'go advanced', then 'manage attachments', and then wait for the window to open up which is sometimes real fast and sometimes kind of slow, depend's on how busy the site is I guess...Sagetown you post some good pictures sir, you really do....
