My stupid factor is running about 100% here. At one time I posted allot of pics so I thought I post some pics of the Hydro engines and Baby Ruth. Everything went well until I hit upload. After that nothing happened, soooo, I might need allittle help,

Gramps:

Check your file size. Smaller picts are easier to load. If too big, they won't load.

I've been using a MAC and found that downloading them directly to the computer from the phone is also easier for my set-up as well.

Size of photos or extension, seem to be the issue when I have a problem. I usually use 1296 X 972 pixels at 300 DPI on my Nikon Coolpix S8100. Keeping it down to around a half of a meg.

I use the phone some times but it is more work to transfer the files to the computer.
 
I thought I checked that. plus these were old pics, so they probably should work. But I'll check that Thanks.
 
I just checked it 56K When I select choose file the oic shows up in the :Choose filr " location. However when I select choose filr in the upper aerea I get a notice choosr=e location???? Maybe the new computer has a stuoid factor as well??
 
Here is how I post pictures:
1) upload from phone to facebook
2) download to PC by right clicking on facebook picture
3) attach picture by using lower part of reply to thread, manage attachments

Ron you can email me the photo(s) you are wanting to post and I will take a look and see what the issue might be. jseery@mail.com
 
Thanks JSeerly. The issue here is the fact that I have duzens of pics that I think the guys would like to see, and before I can't do this anymore, I'd like to share.
So I'll wait for a grand kid to show me the errors of my way.

Ron, you can send me as many as you want, no problem. But one would let me check out what the issue with posting might be.
 
Ol Ron. What computer setup do you have?

I have Windows 10. if you have the same I could maybe guide you through.

I can't do all the modern phone malarky. I do use my phone but everything goes to the web via the desktop computer.

Whenever I had tried to post recently it stated that a security token was missing.
Whatever that is,,,I just gave up,,,,had a lot of nice pics of my Flathead I had purchased.
Block turned out great,,,gonna continue with the work on it this Spring.
I have a ton of pics on the Hamb if anyone is interested.
The title of the thread is Flathead advice needed.
I use the same handle on there as well.

I'm having the same issue posting pics recently. Nothing has changed at my end. Still using same iPad to take and store pics, so file size shouldn't be an issue, as I have posted plenty before using my iPad. Me thinks, there has been some upgrade to the site affecting a few of us.
 
Almost every problem I have seen is a file size issue. Someone will say the size is fine, but when they send it to me it is a several Mb file. So first thing is to double check the file size, a .jpg needs to be around 500Kb. I know sometimes a larger file will post, but not consistently (sometimes much larger files, but it is the exception and not the rule).
 
I haven't posted in a long time because I couldn't figure it out. I just posted a picture using tapatalk. Was really easy

For anybody that hangs around here (F'Barn) much, it's obvious that JSeery and myself regularly post a lot of pictures. Now J seems to be a fairly sharp kind'a guy, but myself....I'm dumber than snot when it comes to computer smarts. What I'm trying to get across here is that if I was able to sit down and figure this stuff out, then likely most of y'all ought to have the ability to do the same. Posting pictures here is a piece of cake!! DD
 
Like ziggster said,,,,,I take my pics with my phone,,,,send them to my IPad,,,,and post.
Worked before until about a month or so ago.
