How do I insert/post photo's on topics please.

Easiest way is to right click on pic and hit copy then right click on post and hit paste

Hi @browny. There is a how to section under the site support forum, which includes posting photos.

Happy posting

When you're creating a post, click on the Upload a file button at the bottom right of the window. Navigate to where you photo is, and upload it. Alternatively, and probably easier, is Drag and Drop the pic onto the posting window.
Job done.

I always use the "Upload a File" button, but I'll try your Copy/Paste option right now.......here goes.....



........I don't think it worked for me.

I never thought to try that ...

I normally use 'Upload a File' too, but I'll give Copy/Paste a go ...

Ah - it worked!

I think newbies have to wait to be able to do that.

In the short term @browny, you need to upload it to another site (eg http://tinypic.com) then use the button to share the image.

Shortly you should see the

button appear under where you type when making a post.

One more time......

I'll try Copying/Posting one of my own pictures rather than one that has already been uploaded to CycleChat ....

That worked too! What on Earth are you doing for it not to work ...?

Oops! @browny is not a newbie. He must be close to a foundation member (2007 ).

But the copy and paste thing is browser dependent. Doesn't work on my phone. @ColinJ, @slowmotion - you both on Windows? Which browser.

 

[ColinJ]

Ah - Firefox 58.0.2/Win 7!

Windows 10, Internet Explorer (can't remember which version).

(probably works on my MacBook too, but I'm not going downstairs to check)

And I am watching Paris-Nice on my new Win 10 laptop so I'll leave that for another 1.2 km worth. Wait for it ...
