Forum Computer Question

STOGEY · 09-15-2004

I have a question for some of you computer geeks, that are more of a computer geek that I am. Last night my significant other tried to post a pitcutre on random picture. She couldn't,so I tried to post the picture. I noticed that on the space where you post the picture there isn't any cut or paste buttons, like there is on my space. Even though I pressed avanced change, the buttons still did not appear. What could be the problem?

Sue · 09-15-2004

Is she registered?

STOGEY · 09-15-2004

yes she is.

Andiline · 09-15-2004

Are you using the same computer? If so, I would compare the settings in your PDC-profiles. Otherwise check Java- and Internet-settings on your PC's whether they are the same (not sure though whether Java has anything to do with it, just guessing).

What exactly was the setting that you changed?

I have the same problem on 2 different computers.

I can only post images with URLs / web addresses (including attachments on this site under my multimedia gallery or the very limited attachments space).

Beachnutt719 · 09-16-2004

I have the same problem. Cannot post my own pics unless I upload to multimedia first.

Critter · 09-16-2004

I don't understand the question......

are you trying to post the picture using standard HTML coding such as this "<"img src=http://cablespeed.com/~mccljp/critters/johnincd.gif">" which comes out in the message like this: <img src=http://cablespeed.com/~mccljp/critters/johnincd.gif> ? (note- you have to remove the quotation marks) or are you trying to use the advanced section of the posting block and link a picture via the tool bar? (the mountain postcard thingie)

JoanieBlon · 09-16-2004

ACK! I discovered that I too am having a "problem" inserting an uploaded "attachment" into the test of my forum message. I can insert an "image" if I host it on my own website first...such as:

but I seem unable to cut and paste images into this window, not can I manage to make uploaded gif attachments show here. I cannot find ANY place in my settings to adjust either... hola.gif

Not too big of a deal, as I CAN post pictures, but it's aggrevating to me that I cannot figure this out...

BTW...Can't recall seeing anything from James recently...did Anna go into labor?

Critter · 09-16-2004

Baby announcement is in the "off topic stuff" I will let you go and read it.

JoanieBlon · 09-16-2004

Can't see the image attachment in the POST PREVIEW, but then it appeared in the actual Forum Post!! How the heck did I do that???

:p

Critter · 09-16-2004

Oh yeah. All linked photos must be stored on an internet site that allows 3rd party linking.

JoanieBlon · 09-16-2004

I THINK I get this now....only ONE uploaded attachment at a time will show in the Forum post?

:p

If I am NOT mistaken, this post will show an attachment of a Patzun huipil neckline below....BUT...I cannot see the image in the "Preview Post."
