How to post photo?
All the methods I've tried are not working, they all seem outdated. How do you guys post photos? I've tried the methods I've seen and maybe I'm not technologically smart enough

You're very correct, the site is massively outdated. I use the additional options>manage attachments tab down below

I take a pic then text the pic to myself. Then I save the texted pic to my phone. That shrinks it enough for me. Then, I post the text pic on the forum.

I basically use the same technique. I use taptalk and chose the small or medium picture option. Sometimes it takes three tries to post a picture. The upload usually fails at least 2 times.

I just upload to an external photo host and post it that way. No need to deal with texting it to myself or downsizing the picture to the point it is useless.

Works, but valuable reference pics get lost when the links go dead.

This site is frustrating when it comes to picture uploads. They upload for me but won't actually show a pic and instead will show a file.

ALL photo links will eventually go bad and become knowledge lost. Much better to post them to the forum. However, as others have noted, the photo posting system, particularly the small size requirements, are outdated and clunky to use.

I've never had problems loading things here. Let's see what happens.
Original sizes: one pic is 75k, one is 375k, and one is 1.3meg.
The software downsizes everything to 128k

Yes, like he posted above. I'll screenshot this and add some arrows...
I think you have to upload each pic one at a time. Otherwise, it seems to
work fine...
