G'day Guys,

Welcome to the Speedo Forum.

If you are a guest, you can only see a small portion of the forum. Members like posting their speedo selfies so I don't like that to be 100% public. However, joining is free.

If you are a new member, you need to email me your username so I can manually activate your account. This is a pain (for you and me) but it is the only way I've been able to keep the spam bots from ruining the forum. My email address is: DaveEvans@SpeedoFetish.com

This forum is free and I don't allow any advertising (except my own sites), if you would like to donate please click the link above, all donations go towards the hosting and maintenance of the forum for everyone to enjoy.

Dowloading/Posting pics

Post by Thom » Sun Aug 26, 2018 2:09 pm

I've never had trouble downloading or posting pics before. I can download okay it seems, but I can't find the button to place the pic into the text. I think it was called "place in line" or something. I've posted dozens of pics before, as recently as a month ago. Help!

Taking the pics via your phone?
Use an attachment from your camera or the attachment icon.
I use Tapatalk app. 3 different sizes to choose. Sometimes the site has loading issues and you have to wait it out...

I was trying to download a jpg file from my desktop. I have a new iphone, but i'm not very good at using it yet. I should look into tapatalk. Maybe I need to make the file smaller. I don't suppose we could go back to using typewriters and landlines....

Tapatalk automatically gives you 3 choices of size pics. Typically the “best” works. A large and a small is the other choices. I’ve on occasion had to use an attachment icon vs. the camera photo icon to work.

The size of the file was too big. So I resized. It was a pic from a web catalog.

One of the Forum members here recommended Irfanview photo software, which is free and makes resizing very easy. I had used it before, but it got lost when my desktop crashed, so I had to reload it.

Hi All,

I've got pics to share, but have never been able to upload them to a post. I see the little image button (looks like a mountain range with the sun over it)but when you hit it, it inserts text <img> </img> then I don't know what to do from there.

Does anybody know a simple way to upload photos with posts? Im only a desktop, and would prefer not to have to load software for this.

Many Thanks!

Steevo

Steevo,

Below the box where you can type in text there is an 'Attachments' tab. Click on that, upload your file (it has to be 800 pixels or less wide - otherwise it looks terrible and is unviewable on mobile devices.

When you've uploaded your file, there is a button that says 'Place in Line', click that and it will put the code of your image in there.

Hope that helps, any members or donors can reach out to me and I'll walk them through it.

Hi Dave,

Thanks for the response. I see where to upload the photo, but there is nothing about "place inline" I've looked all over for it. I notice Thom, on this thread mentions the same issue.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Steevo

It's probably cause you're pic is too big then, resize it, you have everything explained about the sizes of pics, Dave pinned that post above all in the speedo photos section. There he specified all the instructions and written about the sizes of the pics that are being uploaded!
