    Default Inserting photos

    I can't figure out how to insert photos into my postings so that I can put a little caption or description for each photo. I see others do it so it must be possible. Mine always come out with the text on top and then all the photos with no text in between them. Help please.

    When you use the "manage attachments" button and download your photos to the forum, this will place the photos at the bottom of your post. This software doesn't allow them to be placed in the text of the posting.



    If you use the "insert image" button, little yellow and black button on top of the posting text box, you can put images in the body of your text. The downside of this is, it requires a link to the image, in other words the image must be on the internet somewhere else like another website or photo posting service (your photo albums here, photobucket, etc). I took the above photo from one of my photo albums on this website.

    Thanks for the help. I guess I will have to change where I store my photos if I want to be able to do this.

    Interesting. I have been inserting photos in the text regularly using the provisions on the Forum site.

    Once the images are loaded, if you click on the down button alongside the attachment paper clip, it will show the images uploaded and you can then click the one you want after words of the description.

    You can also cut and paste the attachment code - all within the square brackets, including the brackets wherever you want the image.

    Try using a return after each label sentence. I will typically tap the return twice or maybe three times and then insert the photo in the middle line space.

    Thanks for the thanks. One more thought, to see what is ready to post before hitting the "Submit Reply" button, you can preview exactly what you created by hitting the "Preview Post" button. For some reason, I can see typos and messed up logic better in bigger type. Then you can scroll down and make the corrections. I have found that preview post works any number of times.

    Let's see if it works on an iPad

    Water pump

    I tried different photos, it kept tell on me no file selected. I tried uploading a picture of Guinness my dog sitting on the couch. For some reason on my iPad it only allows one picture.
    Edit content: It changed the picture from the water pump on a Rotax 912 to Guinness watching TV. I still think it's funny when he jumps on the couch, sits next to me leans back to watch next to me sometimes he'll lean over and rest on my shoulder. He's done this twice, I was laughing so hard the last time I had to get up, he hasn't done it since.
