I can't seem to put my photos on the forum from my iPad. Do I need Photobucket or similar? I get the 'file is too big ' msg. Rolling Eyes

imgur.com

upload there and it will generate the [img] tags you need for the forum automatically.

if your files are xbox huge you can always easily resize them in mspaint in windows 7 onwards.

When posting pictures from my iphone, I'd have to email them to myself but resize them to under 1mb. Then they would upload to the forums. Otherwise, yes, you need to host them elsewhere.

I've got a picture I should like the forum to see.

I've got the picture as far as Photobucket and I have clicked on "Add an attachment" I have then clicked on browse and the filename has come up in the slot next to "the browse button but when I then press "Add attachment" (to the bottom right of the 'screen') there is nothing appearing in the screen.

What am I doing incorrectly?

Cheers, Tony. :cry:

If you're using a host (i.e. photobucket etc), you put the url of the image in tags. e.g.
[img]url goes here[/img]
