I am at a conference for work till Thursday and not sure about my Vista but this 7 computer has Version 69.0.3497.100 (Official Build) (64-bit) I believe it is me because this 7 is doing the same thing as my Vista at home

Did something change since 2 weeks ago? I attached a pic on one of my first posts and it went very easy. It showed up as a small pic at the bottom of the post that could be enlarged when clicked on.
Today, I try to attach some pics of parts and they are HUGE and take up a lot of space on the post. Same device used to take the pics.
Oh, and there is no little paper clip next to it in the "My Posts" section.

I have had the same problem as others, here is my test, will not load from "manage attachments". This loaded from the "image" button but is on top of the post rather than below.

I don't think I've ever used the "manage attachments" button, only the "image" button at the top of the window.

You get the same screen to add pics whichever one you choose.

I am not doing anything different than I was and now it is working for me most of the time. Last night I had to do it three times to get the pictures to show up. The problem I am having now is that the pictures are sometimes showing up sideways.

I must be missing something. I hit the mountain icon then it asks me where I want to get a picture from. I select "my album" then select the pictures I want. They appear on the screen, but I can't transfer them to my reply. How do I do that?

That is the problem I was having. They just would not show up. Now it is working for me most of the time but I am not doing anything different than I was.

Guess I'll keep trying but I think this problem needs to be looked into. I never used to have a problem.

Are you hitting the "Insert" tab on the top right. It works for me.



Right after it was purchased and clceaned up.

I can get it to work most of the time now but I have to do it at least two times every time. It has yet to have ever worked for me on the first attempt.

Test # 2 used the "manage attachments" and upload buttons. picture I selected showed up on the upload screen but did not transfer when I hit post. Here is test number 3:

For this I used the "Image" button which brought up the same upload screen. My picture loaded as before but this time it actually loaded when I hit the upload button. It also appeared correctly below my text which it did not do before. A little better but the "manage attachments" selection does not work!
