Can anyone tell me how to post a picture on the forums? Thank you.

Copy and paste is the easiest way @cusegirl .

@cusegirl   If you post a personal picture, not one from the web, most likely you will have to resize the picture. I used to post tons of personal pictures of my home,  but when this started, several years ago, I just stopped.

Way too much trouble.

Put your cursor where you want your photo in the reply.  Click on the little icon that looks like a square with a mountain in it in the options at the top of the reply window.  Then follow the directions.

If you're on a phone, I don't think that option is available anymore though.

@cusegirl - If you can share the technology you plan to use, we can customize our advice for you. For example, I use a desktop computer and Chrome browser and follow the approach described by @geezerette because copying and pasting almost never works for me in that setup.

In general, it seems that the posting process works best when you have a photo saved on whatever device you are using; it requires less bandwidth to complete the upload and it removes the typical web coding that could cause your post to be removed due to the linking prohibited by the forums.

Also, if you have tried posting a picture and encountered errors, let us know what you are experiencing, and we can try to help you navigate the issues. Good luck!

Another thing to remember is that the picture format must be compatible with the currently used but outdated QVC software. 

For example, a .web photo isn't compatible (for me.)  I always try to make sure I have a jpg/jpeg before I post to avoid frustration.

When I post a photo from my phone, I always have to shrink the size somewhat.  So I reduce the size of the photo I plan to post on my laptop, save it, and then insert the edited photo via the mountain icon above.

I've never had trouble posing anything but I never use copy and paste.  Your computer may not be compatible with mine and all I'll get is a little green box. 

I use a picture from anywhere, screen shot, photo, a snap of a video and file it in my gallery of pictures.   If you try to enhance it, you may get the "too large" message as you increase the pixels.  I do trim off the borders with my computer information using my computer edit.

Click on the place in the message matrix where you want the picture to go, click on the landscape icon at the top of the matrix,  click on file to bring up you picture gallery.  Select your picture, click on insert picture, click on post.

This goes zip, zip once accustomed to it, and let us know I7 if you have questions.  Feel free to experiment here.
