The title says it all. I had a quick search through a few threads and the FAQ, but I must be as thick as a fencepost, cause all I get is broken image links...

Warren,
Hope I can help..
When you open a message, down below the entry screen (page down), you'll see "Additional Options" and the box "attach files"
Press the "Manage Attachments" bar and a pop up window will appear.
From there you can select images from your PC to include in your message.
(Note the size limitations!)

Whilst we’re on this topic and pardon my ignorance , how do you attached someone’s post or a section of someone’s previous post to your new post. Never bothered to do that and I noticed most people do that as a reference. Been on the forum for 3 years and never tried
Thanks
Martin

On the bottom of the message is the option to quote. Just click on it then that message is added and you can edit out the bits you don't want and under that message add your comments

You can also do multiple quotes by using the +" button next to the quote button you used. It marks the posts you want to quote & then use 'add reply' & the multiple comments are there. You can then divide them up to respond to each one if you want.

Folks, humble thanks for the information, it's much appreciated! I've been trying to do it through the little "insert Image" button that appears when you make a post.


I'll just give muself an uppercut...
