How To Insert Images In Your Posts - Kerim - 12-07-2013 There are two easy ways to insert images into your post. The first way is to use the “insert image” icon above the text box where you type your post. To use this method, however, the image needs to be on a server and you have to have a URL for it. The second way is where you have the image on your computer and want to upload it to the site for insertion in your post. To use this method:
Thanks! Kerim RE: How To Insert Images In Your Posts - hendi_alex - 12-10-2013 Practice with the attachment method. Another test photo. Wife's recent birthday. Appears that when using this method the photo size may need to be edited, especially if taken at very high resolution. BTW, the wife's birthday cake may be ugly, but I baked it from scratch. Used a wedding cake recipe for the cake and made butter cream frosting. RE: How To Insert Images In Your Posts - TomK - 12-10-2013 An ugly cake eats just as good as a good-looking one! I trust it did not diminish your "excellent husband" accolades. RE: How To Insert Images In Your Posts - hendi_alex - 12-10-2013 No, she was happy to have the attention. I also made scratch pasta sauce from some of my frozen, home grown tomatoes. Served the pasta with a mixed greens salad that was picked fresh from our garden. Paired the meal with a nice sparkling Mumm rose. Most days she classifies me as a keeper. Other days she uses less complementary terms to describe me. I work pretty hard to deserve both descriptions! RE: How To Insert Images In Your Posts - Be Here Now - 02-15-2014 I thought I followed your instructions but it didn't work: http://dividendgrowthforum.com/showthread.php?tid=399 What did I do wrong? RE: How To Insert Images In Your Posts - Dividend Watcher - 02-15-2014 I figured out what I'm going to do when I retire. I'm going to move in with Alex and eat cake and homemade pasta sauce. Yumm! In return, I'll pick up his bent nails as he works. . . BHN, it appears you tried to attach a spreadsheet and not a picture. I don't believe the board software has the correct filters to convert a spreadsheet to a displayable image. What you can do is get the spreadsheet on the screen and adjusted how you want it to display.
Then the instructions above will work. RE: How To Insert Images In Your Posts - Kerim - 02-15-2014 Yes, DW has it right, Be Here Now. For the "table" in my portfolio, I get it just how I want it in Excel, then I just take a screenshot of the portion I want, which saves as a JPG or PNG. Either of those should attach just fine using the instructions I posted. Please let us know if that does not solve it. Thanks!

RE: How To Insert Images In Your Posts - Robandcindy2 - 06-27-2016 Frustration mounts So I'm working on a draft on my thoughts on rethinking risk. I have several images from Portfolio Visualizer that my Mac saved as TIFF's and I converted to JPG. I've inserted this one into the draft but when I select "Preview" it returns "no image" ! ? ! ? When I try to insert the image into a random new post it inserts fine (see below). So what gives? Any work arounds? Thanks!! Rob [attachment=172] RE: How To Insert Images In Your Posts - Kerim - 06-27-2016 Sorry for the frustration, Rob. I am hopeful that it is just "preview" mode itself that sucks. I recall facing the same issue -- in preview mode the image you inserted just shows up as a little blank icon/placeholder thingy? But if you take the leap and go ahead and post, the images should be there as intended. I know this makes it hard to get a post laid out just so before going live, and I'm not sure if it is a glitch or a "feature" from the software's perspective. In any case, would you mind posting the thread live to see if indeed the images show up correctly (even though they seem not to in preview)? If that isn't the problem, I'll do some more digging to see what's wrong. Thanks! RE: How To Insert Images In Your Posts - Dividend Watcher - 06-27-2016 Yup, I have the same issues -- preview mode doesn't show the picture(s). I just post and pray for the best and hope I'm not posting the wrong image like my wife's baby picture naked in the tub. One question I have, Kerim, is there a way I can re-use pictures I've already posted? If you go to the User Control Panel (top left) and go down to the "Manage Attachments" section I can see all the pictures I've posted. Sure seems a shame to have to re-post something when it's already stored on the server. |
