Some of you seem to have difficulty getting pictures to show properly in your posts,
I've found that the best and most reliable way is to ignore the image link icon button, it's above the text box

and use the attachment button, its below the text box.

Then press the Add files buttton

And then either press the Insert all button if you want all the attachment to display at once or press blue insert button below it to only display that individual choice of picture.
Once a picture is included you will see a green in message button DON'T press this

Finally you press the blue Submit button at the bottom.

Thanks chum, I’ll print that out & attach it somewhere where I can’t miss it, possibly on the inside of my eyelids.
I have to say that that is my attempted procedure, however with a 50% failure rate I must be getting it wrong half the time. (!)

:oops: And when you get the photos to show, you often have them duplicated,:bust: So it's like buses with you... Either none or too many...
Never mind, it gives the mods something to do!:yesnod: Always remember...:uwp:

Firstly thank you team for correcting my goofs & secondly it’s almost as if the pictures from my first attempt are sidelined to wait for the next bus to come along. It is this second bus on which they hop to join their twin, journeying along to embarrass me yet again.
Thanks again team for nursemaiding ageing members such as I.
