Great thread on adding a pic to the post. This a test to see if I can do it. A little 925 silver ring I found on the beach with the Deus. Looks like it works. Awesome, thanks to GKL!

Is there a way to attach photos to post in a group? There is no paper clip icon so I have been using links but I noticed that on some older post the photo is attached and visible without having to click.
This is also a test, a couple pics of a ring I found in 2016.
That works nice but I cant seem to get both pics, oh well I'll keep trying.
Thanks GKL!
If you have the photos on the hard drive of your computer here is how to add them to your posts -

after you click on the paper clip, then "browse", search for the folder on you computer where you stored the photos and choose the photo you want to upload. (also notice the maximum file size chart)

you can upload 5 photos at a time after you browse and choose each one individually

close that window after you see all photos have uploaded

now you're ready to add the photo(s) to your post -

IF you need to resize your photos, you need to do so before choosing and uploading them, I use the "Paint" program that is built into Microsoft Windows, if you don't use Microsoft Windows you'll need to use a similar program.

If you want to just use part of a photo -
(if you need to both resize and crop, I would crop first, then see if you still need to resize)

I don't have a camera per se....all I have is the Android cell phone with camera feature....Have some nice pics on cell but have no idea how to get them to post on here. An old guy and not too good with this high tech stuff...
GKL,
way to complicated for this OLD brain...DiggingThePNW is going to call me tomorrow bout 6 pm my time and try...I say again Try to talk me thru this thing...If that doesn't work, I'm just giving up...Don't need to post pics that bad...Don't understand why all the folks that understand this stuff can't figure a REAL SIMPLE way to do this...Just bing bang boom and the pic is up....I will let you know tomorrow after I talk to DIGGING.....
BTW, most of the pics I have are on my phone, that I have to send to my email on computer which is hard enough for me. Don't know how to get them from phone to hard drive on puter....
Gary, would you do an instructional on how to copy an image address and past it into the "Insert Image" Box?
Then others can past an "non-dug" pic of something they find via a pic they find on the internet.
Your OP is fine for a file on their computer, but adding the other option would be helpful a well.
Thanks!
No problem, thanks for the idea !
(if not today then within a day or so)
Who da man?
YOU DA MAN
Thanks, I'm sure it will be appreciated!
ETA: I have to remember "Paste" ends with an "e", it's not "past"
On top pic, and simply stating in event there's confusion, my computer says "copy image address" (and not image link) when I right click.
Only mentioning because someone learning to post pics this way may not understand. I'm not familar with how different computers do the same things.
Thanks again for posting!
