Ok why can't I post pictures?

I tried this the other day. Then today I used photoshop to downsize below 50, I go and upload my pics and that goes well, but when I go to attach them they won't attach. Is there something I'm missing here? Maybe a setting that I didn't set in profile/customize that I'm too blind to see? It's four in the a.m. and I'm at a loss. Oh well, time for bed. If anyone has an idea what I may be doing I'd love to know.
Prost!

Why step over the dollar to get to the cent? Because it's a 55DDO.

    From the reply window hit the attach file button at the bottom.
    This takes you where you uploaded the file.

    After you upload the file name should show up in the upload box window.
    Highlight it and click the attach file button in that same window.

    That should take you back to the reply window and
    the file name should show at the bottom in the attachments: field.

    That should do it.

    That's why I think there must be something wrong. That's exactly what I've been doing...Hmmm something is fishy.
    Prost!

    Haven't tried this for a while. Perhaps can be of assistance.

    1. Click on "http" with the link icon. Asks for file name. Type the url for your already-uploaded-file-to-your image-hoster-website exactly. Won't work if not exact.
    2. Name image file for the the thread you are in here.
    3. Before you reply, the attachment will appear in a text format, named as you have named it, with url.
    4. Click on "Reply to Thread."

    That's supposed to work. At least it did once upon a time...

    Is the file name showing up in the upload box?

    One other thought.
    Your image may not show up in the Preview window but will when you hit Reply to Thread.

    I've finally gotten it to work by clicking on the the pic icon, and putting in the forum url with the pic name I uploaded. That's the only way it will work. After uploading pics it won't even allow me to preview them for some reason.

    Oh well, it's a little more labor but at least it works one way. Thanks for all the advice and help.
    Prost!
