Chris H: What has dial up and broadband got to do with loading pics the easy way or more accustomed way. What is the advantage to the system they use now whatever you call it. The point I want to male is I dont really want to store pictures in some other website in order to download them for this AMCA site only. Why cant I just have the option to upload from my computer where I have saved them. I just dont get it why they have to change it all around with no solid reason behind it or at least no explanation why or what it is...I prefer the conventional way and I do have pics to submit but just not able to do so anymore like it used to be...

Chris!

I prefer preserving this history to wasting bandwidth with little red Xs.

Why encourage it when it just takes a trip through a bizarre maze of hidden choices on this sites over-complicated format to upload direct?

Its probably the same number of clicks.

PS: RE: bandwidth...

Emoticons ("smiley faces") waste enormous loading time, thus productivity for modern commerce and communications. For that reason alone, they should be abolished for the sake of advancing humanity.

Cotten,
I surely hope that someday you will graduate from dial up to broadband. You will find a whole new world.

Cotten,
They are dead because whoever posted them removed them.

There's a lot of silly hoops for sure,
but uploading directly to the forum is far better than an external hosting site.

To see why, just scroll down on page ten of the "Old Photos" thread; http://www.antiquemotorcycle.org/bbo...-photos/page10, and note all the dead Photobucket pics.

Cory, there seems to be no "browse" box like all other forums and private email sites have. This AMC sites seems to prefer something complex for dummies like me to stay away maybe. Just pay yer dues and try to search a way to navigate this new site when it comes to posting photos from my albums......ha ha..

Hmmm.... looks like the pics have to be approved???

Joe,

You should be able to post pics directly from your computer. They come up as an attachment.

I dont understand why they change procedures. Why, when adding pics in a meassage, I cant just browse my albums in my computer rather than starting another album in some other site? Whats wrong with the old way when you could use the "browse" box to my files in my pooter. I dont really want to export my info to some other website for storage to acomadate this forum. ...Joe

Thanks Chris, I'll try it and see if it work

[Chris Haynes]

I opened an account at www.photobucket.com
Now I simply upload my photos there and after it is uploaded I cut the IMG Code for my photo and paste it here. There is no resizing necessary. This is the result.

how do you post pictures to this forum, Thanks Whitey
