This tutorial will help you with inserting a picture into your discussion responses and postings.

The maximum size picture you can post in the discussion forum is 256 KB, or 800 pixels wide or 800 pixels tall. Since there is no need to post pictures larger than this, we've set these maximum values.

Adding a picture to your posting:
Attachment:
File comment: How to add a picture to your post
add_picture.jpg
add_picture.jpg [ 133.38 KiB | Viewed 162 times ]

On the screen where you type your responses, scroll to the bottom. Refer to the screen shot above.
  1. Click "Browse" to find the picture on your computer.
  2. Use the text box to the right of "File Comment" to insert a caption or information about your picture. (This is optional)
  3. Click "Add the File"

A small screen will pop up, indicating the status of your picture. This will take a moment or two.

Next, notice this screen shot:
Attachment:
File comment: Other choices for your pictures
add_picture_2.jpg
add_picture_2.jpg [ 146.98 KiB | Viewed 175 times ]

You'll notice a line under your response/posting area will show "Attachments" along with a button that says "Place Inline." This one is entirely optional, but you can use this to place your picture anywhere in your posting. Click on the line where you want the picture, then click the "Place Inline" button. A little line of code will appear that looks something like this:
Code:
[attachment=0]your_picture.jpg[/attachment]


Again, this part is optional, but it's a cool feature you may use.

Further below that, you can either add another picture or you can delete or add a caption to a picture you've already uploaded.

If your picture uploads are failing, it probably means your picture(s) is too large. Reduce the size and try again.
