Hi All.

How does one upload drawings and photos in this forum?

Regards.

Are you viewing it on a phone or tablet? If you use a PC I think the options are obvious.

Hi.

I use a laptop, it may be obvious to you but not to everybody, or I would not have made this request for help and guidance.

Select "reply", then "go advanced", then "manage attachments". Then "add files" to upload files. Then drag the ones you want into the box and you are nearly there. "Add files inline" inserts the attachment(s) where your cursor is.

As you say, unless you know what you are doing, it's hard to know what to do!

Ray, I wasn't trying to patronise you, until you know how it really isn't obvious! As Muzzer said, you need to be in "full fat" advanced mode rather than using quick reply.

And as far as I can see you can't post attachments when viewing the forum on a phone or tablet.

Hi Ray.
I'm new to the Forum.
Since I'm facing the same problem, could you tell me the steps to upload photos?
I've tried but I couldn't.…… .
Until now, I haven't faced such a problem on any other Forum but I don't know what's going on. I've gotten really old.

Thank you in advance.

Look at Muzzer's post 2 or 3 above.

[NikosR]

I followed all the steps but nothing happens.
The size of the photo is small but nothing.

Log in.

Start a new thread.

Scroll past the text input window and near the bottom there will be an option to attach files. Edit: actually the option is to manage attachments!

Attach your photo as a file.

If you want to post a photo or other file in a reply select "go advanced" rather than quick reply, and again scroll down until to see the attach option.

Hopefully a bot can't add images.

Are there any post count requirements for new users on this forum?

Negative. Welcome and enjoy!

I was asking if a minimum number of posts is required to get permission to post images.

Hi Niko,

Go to " Go Advanced " button, then from that screen you should see the option below Attachments > Manage Attachments.

Sorry about all this, the good news is am now settled in a new job, health is well and on the up, as such a completely new forum experience for us all, is just round the corner, ill be contacting a few of you with regards to beta testing the new mycncuk v3.0.

For clarity, I think the simple answer to Niko's question is "no, there is no minimum number of posts you must make before you are permitted to post images".

Looking forward to seeing the new format!

Glad to hear you are on the mend.

Sorry! Your correct!,

I have a few mechanisms in place to stop spam etc but one of them is that you need to post twice before I stop "watching" you, however we are a VERY vigilant community so that helps greatly :)

Rgr will give you a shout soon once I have something.nice to.look at, I know I've said this kind of thing lots of times over the last few years, this time its definitely on :).

Cheers mate, rebuilding health at the mo, both physically and mentally, currently sat waiting for my.train after a session in the gym after work, thank god the sun has come back to play 🫠
