T-Mo-(Moderator) 4,345 #2 Posted October 30, 2008 Billy, As for posting pictures you're best bet is to use an outside host, like photobucket. I don't recommend using the "File Attachment" tab here for various reasons. See here: http://www.wheelhorseforum.com/index.php?showtopic=5937 For help posting pictures, see this link: http://www.wheelhorseforum.com/index.php?showtopic=1071 Again, welcome to the site.

T-Mo-(Moderator) 4,345 #6 Posted October 31, 2008 You can also upload directly, but your file must be certain size (or smaller) as outlined in the upload directions. Mike, Not too hammered at the topic too much, but if you will read my first link in the post above, you will see why I don't recommend using the file attachment. I strongly recommend NOT using it. Please try and abide by my suggestion. The file attachment tab is there and it won't go away but, the considerate thing would be not to use it. It only takes a few more seconds to use an outside host and it speeds up load times here immensely and it won't add to our usage on the site. The site now is free and it should, and probably will stay that way, but increasing our storage by using the file attachment too much may change that. Again, please be considerate to all here and use an outside host. :banghead: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
