How to add pics to post?

[RJohns777]

Would someone be kind enough to tell me how to add pics to posts. I went to FQA which said this.

"As a member, you can create Albums of images that are linked to your public profile. Albums can be created by visiting the User Control Panel, and clicking on the 'Pictures & Albums' link, and then clicking on 'Add Album'."

I have no pictures and album link under user control panel.

Thanks

Hi Zero D, Thanks but I don't think your post answers my main question. It's something I'll need to know later in the posting process however. It's my understanding I need create an album to upload the attachment to. Then put them in the post. There is no 'Pictures & Albums' link and no 'Add Album' link to click on. Am I looking in the wrong place? Thanks for your help.

Click on the advanced reply button then if you look at the bottom you'll see a button marked Manage Attachments, then browse to your pics. Simple, no need to worry about albums or other such stuff.

Okay. Thank you very much. I can stop pulling my hair out now. I can see the light!

Just caught your post before i have a meal

Actually you don't need to create/have an Album at all That's just an option you "might" already have on your comp, or create one or more.

All you need to do is click on here

Then browse to the location of the Att on your comp & select it. If there are more, just repeat the process.

As you can see, i've aligned the Att screenies per my thread i linked to earlier. You don't have to, but now the option is avaialable for everyone to do so, if they wish

I find it easiest to put Any/All Att's on my desktop ready for uploading, where they can be easily/quickly located.
