Posting pictures

I don't know how. I tried saving a picture "as" and tried to past it, but couldn't. The old board you could copy & paste, but that gives you the HTML message.

So can anyone help? Thank you.

I have posted a couple of pictures using the copy/paste method. Each time I got a message saying that the system had removed the HTML, but the picture still posted. I claim no expertise on this, but it seems as if links or anything other than the actual image will no longer post.

Oh, but if you are on a mobile device, there is no way to add pictures at this time.

@ChynnaBlue, I am on a MacBook and I bemoan my easy ability to drag and drop. I will try what you suggest in your link.

BTW, I have your link bookmarked and refer to it often.

Edited to add: I did a trial test and it worked. Not as simple as drag and drop on a PC, but I'll take it!

I don't think you can add pic with an iPad. I already tried but it posts a link instead. The only way I can post pics is from a PC using copy/paste method.
