How to post a picture
How do I post a picture of my gear to sell?
This is something that gets asked pretty regularly, so here's my quick and dirty guide to posting pictures in a thread:
The chosen picture should be available on the hard drive of your computer.
Adjust your browser settings to allow "pop ups" from this site.
When you create a thread or reply to a thread you will type in the text box just like I have done here. This forum requires at least 2 characters to make a post.
DO NOT click the
Submit New Thread button yet.
Instead, scroll further down the page and you will see a section named
Attach Files
below that you will see
a button
Manage Attachments, select that button.
A "pop up window" will appear to
Manage Attachments
In the section
Upload File from your Computer
Select the
Choose File button and another window will appear prompting you to select the image from a location on your computer. Once you find the image you want, double click it. This will "tell the website" where your image is at for upload.
The name of your image should now appear next to the
Choose File button.
To the right of the image name select the button
Upload, and the upload process will begin.
Give it time, depending on your connection speed and image size, it may take time to upload.
You will see
Uploading File(s) - Please Wait
Once the file has been uploaded, the name of the image should appear under the heading
Current Attachments
If it did not, check the
Attachment Key at the lower portion of that window to see if your image is within the size parameters allowed for uploads. For an example, this forum allows a maximum file size of 9.54 MB for a .jpeg
Once the image name shows it is in the
Current Attachments list
look at the top right of the "pop up window" and select
Close this window
Above the button
Manage Attachments you should see the name of the file you just uploaded. I selected an image of my 706 for this demo.
Hit the
Submit New Thread button and you are done!
