I'm having trouble posting photos..

[Dagaro17]

Hi everyone,
I was hoping to post some photos and I have tried every route possible from trying to copy and paste, to the insert image icon, etc and nothing works to bring up my photos on my phone and computer. Is there perhaps a rule that new posters can't upload photos? I only have posted twice so far. Thanks for your help.

I had something a long these lines initally. I think it may be the size of the photo you are trying to upload and maybe the format. One of our experts will confirm but I think " jpeg" files are usually ok. I do recall posting direct from iPhone and/or iPad. Hope this helps. Cheers

I'm not positive, but I believe that it's to do with anti-spam measures instituted a few months ago.

Update #2 on this.

I have now created a new user group on the forum for users that have 5 posts or less. These users will have a less privileges compared to users with 6 or more posts. For example, users with 5 or less posts can not start a Private Message, they can not add links in their signature, and a few more things.

As the user posts their 6th posts, they will get "normal" privileges as a normal user.

Any donating member (no matter how many posts they have) will get "normal" privileges.

This is a big change, and if you see something that is strange or something that does not...

Try posting/commenting on a few threads and then try to post the photos again. When you do, use the "Attach files" button, then when the picture has uploaded choose "insert as thumbnail."
