    Using the "browse' buttons first?

    The double click on the picture, then 'upload"??

    There's a size limitation but you should get that message if too large....

    Hey Bubba,
    Thanks for the speedy response, ive been having a play (with the comp) I cant get to the browse buttons, I think the file manager is missing. Any ideas where its gone or how I get it back.
    cheers

    That doesn't sound right.....using Internet Explorer?

    I just hit the "Manage Attachments" and it brings a new box open with the "Browse" and "Upload" buttons, even with my Pop Up blocker on...

    All I know about computers is the on/off/reboot feature...

    Your info in the heading of your note shows you are not subscribed, so apparently your subscription expired. I don't think you can post pics if you're not subscribed.

    Actually you get a 5MB limit on pics, if unsubscribed I believe......he may have hit that limit if he's done a few...

    Not my girls, certainly not my BMW! LOL!

    I own Ferraris!!!

    Lost a wife and a good girl over all that...cheers to you as well!

    That's why I keep trying to sneak back into her heart! LOL!

    So far no luck.....that's Ferrari of Houston's F430GT2, an awesome machine..

    Valeria's awesome too, she looked it over and said "That'd be nice to have one of those......"

    Sounds to me you have some sort of trouble with your browser settings, not this website...it's a lot of pictures to get to the 5MB limit as they have to be a certain size to fit on here...

    Paul - When you click the 'Reply' or 'New Thread' buttons, towards the bottom of the page where you enter your text, don't you have the following 'Manage Attachments button'? This allows you to add attachments at the end of any text you type.

    Of course, as it says, the attachments have to be one of the following types: asf avi doc gdb gif jpeg jpg mov mp3 mp4 mpg pdf png ppt txt wav wmv xls zip

    Unsubscribed users can post attachments, but only up to a 5 or 10 MB limit or something similar.

    Click on User CP up there on the top bar, and then choose Attachments from the column on the left hand side. There's a line on the top of the attachment page that says something similar to "You are currently using 149.67 MB to store 2,046 uploaded attachments." What are your numbers?

    HERE'S our resident expert.....LOL!

    G'morning T.........hope all is well.......I am actually starting to feel better, must be the diminished alcohol intake...

    Thanks to Paul Witt for the comment, I like the first one better too, the second one looks to be kind of high maintenance..:rolleyes: Lady Valeria would NEVER wash my car though......LOL!
    Well she DID Speed Shine it once while I showered for Franco's Party, she saw I missed the back tailight deck....


    I don't see how he could possibly hit 5MB of attachments in 18 Posts?????
    He have to be 'stocking' the Bikini Thread....LOL!
