Looking to attach a photo from my computer to a PM. Having issues coping and pasting or attaching. Done it before but can't remember how.

While writing the PM, you should see a bunch of icons above the text area. The one circled is to insert an image.

For a PM the attach image only allows jpegs linked to an URL; no direct upload. I have hosted my pics with photobucket and then added the URL to the PM. Not sure if there is another way or not.

Thanks for the replies. I see that I have to go through URL to post all I have to do is now figure that part out. I use a photo upload known as Dropbox. I think I can share photo's through there.

For some reason unknown to modern man, the basic reply "box" does not always allow posting an image from your computer. When that happens, go to the advanced option and use the "Manage Attachments" section.

And you can forget about attaching photos to a PM.
