TO POST A PICTURE...
Posting pictures is easy, fun, and a great way to share information with your fellow forum members! It's also bloody useful for providing details for problems you're having or to ask -- and answer! -- questions about your bike, gear, and accessories.
So here's the process. The first thing to do is SCROLL DOWN below the Message Body frame where the Upload Tools hide.
Find the BROWSE button (highlighted by the red circle in the above screenshot) and click it. This will open a dialog box displaying the contents of your computer, like this...
Navigate through your file system to the picture you'd like to add, highlight it and click OPEN. The dialog box will close, and the file and path will be displayed in the FILENAME box, as below...
Now, click on the ADD THE FILE button to begin the upload. A progress window will launch...
...and when it completes you will have a new bar directly below the Message Body labeled ATTACHMENTS. Note the PLACE INLINE button.
By default, uploaded pictures will be displayed at the end of your message. If, however, you'd like to place your picture somewhere else in your post, move your cursor to where you'd like it displayed and click PLACE INLINE. This will generate a textual tag for the attachment, as below...
That's all there is to it!
Two notes. First, you can upload multiple files and place them wherever you like in your posts, simply by using the drop-down scroll box next to the PLACE INLINE button. Just repeat the first two steps after each picture finishes uploading until you've uploaded all that you want to add, then select each individual file in the drop-down box before clicking PLACE INLINE.
And second, ALWAYS PREVIEW YORU MESSAGE before submitting, by clicking on the PREVIEW button first. This will display an example of your message without actually posting it.
So, happy posting! We look forward to seeing your pictures!
