Any help would be much appreciated x At this point, as a new member, you don't have the privileges of messaging another member at all - photos or not. Private messages are something you earn after a certain amount [not publicly disclosed] of public posting in the forums here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators viking8x6 Posted December 2, 2023 Moderators Report Share Posted December 2, 2023 There is no way to attach photos directly to a private message. You have to post them in a restricted album in the gallery and attach them, or else attach them as links to photos hosted elsewhere. You can attach photos directly to a post on someone's activity feed, but that's not private. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you @viking8x6 I've wondered how to send pics in private messages that I didn't want posted publicly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sub4oralcum Posted April 26 Report Share Posted April 26 I'm a member. What is the current method for attaching a photo to a thread? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators viking8x6 Posted April 26 Moderators Report Share Posted April 26 To attach a photo to your forum post, just use the paperclip tool in the lower left, or the "Other Media" button in the lower right, of the post. Note that there is a disk space limit on your aggregate attachments. You can get around this by posting your images in the galleries and then attaching them to the post. It can be rather finicky to get this to work, but the basic idea is to use the "Insert Existing Attachment" choice from the "Other Media" button, and then select your gallery image as the source.

sub4oralcum Posted April 29 Report Share Posted April 29 Your reply window is way more robust than mine and that includes the paper clip, which is absent on my screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
