Steve Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 It's not painfully obvious, so here is a quick tutorial on how to add images that live on your computer to your posts: 1. When replying to a thread, click the 'Go Advanced' button next to the 'Post Quick Reply' button at the bottom of the page. 2. Click the little paper clip icon - this is the icon that indicates attachments. 3. You should see a little pop up box titled 'Manage Attachments'. 4. Click the 'Browse' button next to any of the ten fields. 5. Browse to and select the image file you'd like to upload from your computer. 6. You can select up to ten images per upload batch. 7. Click the 'Upload' button. 8. Click 'Close this Window'. 9. You should now see your image files listed down the page below the text box where you are typing your post. 10. You can select 'manage attachments' if you'd like to add more. You can attach up to 20 images per post. 11. Once you submit your new post, you should see thumbnails of all of the images you have attached. Click on the thumbnail to see the full size version. *Note that you also have the option to link to images that live on other websites such as flickr by selecting the little image icon and entering the URL to the image - this is available from the 'quick reply' editor, without having to select 'Go Advanced'. Let us know if you have further questions, or are running into errors or problems when attaching images. Enjoy.

Iwar Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Shit.I don't know if this applies or not. I updated my profile and added images to my gallery, and they aren't showing up when I click on "your gallery". I did realize that underneath each picture it says, "Awaiting Moderation". What does this mean? Probobaly that one of the mods has to approve your photos and make sure it isn't spam before they show up on the site. I think this only applies to relatively new members.

Lochlan Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Ahh, so it's probably going to take a few days... Approved! Moderators are on all time so it will not take no longer than a day Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/58-how-to-uploadattach-images-to-your-posts/#findComment-27729 Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeeSea Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Is there a way to change the size of an image I want to post from a URL? I've seen formatting like this elsewhere that allows you to specify a different size with the IMG tag, but it doesn't seem to work here, even if I make sure the new size maintains the same aspect ratio as the original. Thanks. http:.......[/img] Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/58-how-to-uploadattach-images-to-your-posts/#findComment-88858 Share on other sites More sharing options...
polliwog Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 I had a question about the gallery that I can't find an answer to. Is it appropriate to upload a tattooer's photo (from Instagram and the like) to the gallery if it's on your body & photo credit is given? tatB 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/58-how-to-uploadattach-images-to-your-posts/#findComment-89846 Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a good question for your tattooer - if they're ok with it, then it's fine. If it's a picture of you there shouldn't be any problem here.

polliwog Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Well I'm embarrassed that I should have been able to figure that out for myself, but thanks!

I'll see if there's a solution for that, but for now the answer is no.

SeeSea Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 How do you delete an attachment? I see the list where all my attachments are, but don't see a way to delete any of them. Thanks.

Steve Posted February 15, 2015 Author Share Posted February 15, 2015 Every time I upload an image it gets rotated. What am I doing wrong? Wow I didn't see this post originally, sorry about that. This probably means that whatever software you are viewing the image on, ie your phone, is rotating it for you when you view it, but the orientation is actually different.. If you view the images on your computer they should show the actual orientation. You can actually rotate images via the edit link in the gallery if needed.
