Title: How to reuse pictures?
Post by: Livin large on June 09, 2014, 10:10:28 PM

I uploaded pictures in my introduction thread to make sure I could do it. I started a for sale add and wanted to reuse the same pictures but no matter what I do I can get them to upload to my add. What am I doing wrong?

Once a user uploads an attachment, it will be located in their Attachment Manager until removed.  If you're trying to post a thread/reply, click the "Post Reply" --> "Go Advanced" --> find "Manage Attachments" to view your previously posted/uploaded attachments.

Let me know if you're still having trouble and I'll get you squared away.

The problem is I go to manage attachments and my pictures are there but I can't get them to upload to my ad. I mark them all but they don't do anything! Thanks for all your help

Once selected, try clicking "Insert Inline" in the lower right corner.  That may be the missing link here.  Let us know how it goes.

i always just upload my pictures to a image hosting website such as photobucket, then use the picture prompt commands or watever they are called to show the pics such as

[ img ] insert url to picture here [ /img ]    without the spaces in the brackets. that way people dont have to click on the attachment to show the full size, it just shows full size in the msg also.

This is another great method for managing images.
