How come I cant post attachments

[jillybeene71]

I would like to put a few pics of vacation with my report, but it tells me I may post, I may edit posts, but I cant post attachments...is this because I am new?

Yes thats it but just keep posting and you will be set free.

What is the "magic" number of posts I have to make to be set free?

I don't think it has anything to do with number of posts. At the bottom of my page it says I can't post attachments either. As long as it says code is on, you can post pictures. Perhaps you just aren't formatting it correctly.

Do you have the pictures online somewhere?

If you do, simply do what I do below but instead of {} use []


{img}http://www.mypicturesite.com/mypicture.jpg{/img}

Now just replace the {} with [] and the url with your url and it should work. Make sure you don't have any spaces anywhere.

Nobody can post attachments. The reason it's listed there is because it's a feature that is available with the vBulletin software these forums use, but they have it turned off.

To post a picture, you have to put it online somewhere first(the DIS has it's own picture hosting here: http://www.wdwinfo.com/photopost/index.php )

Once you've uploaded your photos, here or on some other picture hosting site, then you can use the little icon that says "Insert Image" and enter the link info (http://....etc ). Or just type the IMG tags like damo said.
