Hi Pejibaye
It seems there are multiple methods to post a picture. The only method I am familiar with is as follows. I work on a Windows computer, not an Apple, so there are likely some minor differences.
1) Post your picture on the internet, the cloud, wherever you post pictures on the world wide web to share with other people. I think even facebook might work. If you have never posted any pictures anywhere, then my help stops here.
2) Open the picture in it's own internet window. Where I post pictures on flickr, I have the option to open the picture at various sizes. The size that is posting-friendly is medium 640 (640x480) or close to it pending the aspect ratio when the picture was taken.
3) Place your curser over the picture and "right mouse click". Look in the menu that pops up for "Copy image address" and select it.
4) Now in the work space on the Phoenix forum here, place your curser in your message where you want the picture to be. Add a blank line above, then select the picture icon. It will add this: [ img][ /img].
5) Paste the "image address" right after the first [ img]. Do NOT add spaces.
6) Pending your message and quantity of pictures to post, you may need to add a blank line below it to separate your picture from text and additional pictures.
7) Hit "post" to post your message and the picture is displayed.
Some things that go wrong are...
- Your internet picture is massive or tiny. The size "medium 640" is what you want where your picture is stored on the internet.
- You get an error message, or you see funny characters in your message. You did not place the internet address after the first [ img]
- Your picture is in the middle of a sentence or otherwise in the wrong place within your message. Separating the img string with a blank line above and below it assures it is posted in a clean manner.
