Uploading and posting pics

Post by Bearclaw » Fri Feb 24, 2023 1:40 am

Hello gang. I was active on the old site starting back in ‘08 or ‘09 and have just been lurking lately. Forgive my ignorance, but is there a current tutorial on uploading and posting pics? I found the page titled “Posting Pics 102” but I’m not sure it’s the current one. I know it’s a bit of a process. I bought what may be a pretty good counterfeit recently and would like to show it here.

To clarify, the tutorial says “Select "Pages and Files" from any page.”. I’m not seeing that anywhere. Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Pics are actually WAY easier here than they were on the old VW.
When typing a comment down below the text box on the left is "Options" and "Attachments" tabs.
Click "Attachments" and, at least for me, it opens your saved pics. From there add the desired shots.
The files will show up in the box under the "Attachments" tab and you can click "Place in line" to add them to your post!
ALWAYS hit "preview" before submitting to make sure the formatting is good. ;)
I go totally NUTS for WOW! VAMs!! Or is that from WOW! VAMs?

I just click and drag pictures from my folders into the dialogue box; 5 per post.

I'm surprised you found the old "Posting Pics 102" page and that anything still links to that.

I guess I should have added that I do everything on an iPad. Is there a trick to posting photos from a mobile?

I've edited the page to make the instructions relevant to the new VAMWorld discussion board. If anyone is interested in making it into a detailed tutorial page, let me know.
