Why can’t I add attachments to my posts?

I have noticed lately I can’t copy and paste attachments to my comments, any ideas?

Most of the time I can copy and post images from other places to here. Then other times certain things won't, so I use the directions here for posting images.

Matt - When were you ever able to copy/paste? I have only seen Moderators with the capability to copy/paste into posts. All other members must UPLOAD attachments and/or images. I have never been able to copy/paste ANYTHING from ANYWHERE into ANY thread/post on CO.

EDIT: And, just to clarify my statement. I have tried to copy/paste an image and/or attachment from WITHIN the CO website and it has never worked. The same holds true for any copy/paste action I have ever attempted from any source outside of CO.

Wayne - That's good information, thanks for sharing. I am only a regular member of CO, but I'll attempt to address (replicate) your issue and see if I am unable to UPLOAD photos, as well. There's an off-chance Internet Brands is working on either the front-end or the back-end of the CO website.

This is a test (only) to see whether I can UPLOAD a photo from my home desktop PC:

It appears I can UPLOAD a photo. So, I could not replicate your issue.
I'll attempt to perform an UPLOAD from my iPhone, next.

Frank - Actually, I have not put any sod down, yet. That's the current state of the lawn. Plenty of opportunity remains for me to kill some grass & it's the finishing touch of the HCl (Muriatic Acid) wash which generally does the trick.

I just tried to copy and paste a image, it won’t show up. I use to be able to do it, I’m glad it’s not just me.



I can attach a photo, this is the same image I just tried to paste. Hmmm

Those are the guard towers for the castle. I'll be installing a moat when they're complete.
