    Not having a lot of computer skills I'm still unable to post pictures on here. I could before the change over but not now. I tried using Photobucket but can't seem to single out the photos I want to post. I used to be able to go to manage attachments browse, select a photo upload and post. Now it goes through the motions but doesn't post?

    Bob,
    With Photobucket, if you are viewing your library, move the mouse over the picture you want. You will see a little gear shaped icon on the R/S top of the picture. Click on that, and you will see a drop down menu. Click on "Get Links". Another box will pop up. Click on the last line (IMG codes). It will copy the link. Then all you need to do is paste it into your "reply to thread" box on V8. To do that, right click the mouse, in the reply box, and select "Paste" and the link will appear. Submit reply and the full size picture will appear in the post. Hope that helps.

    If you move the mouse over the picture, you will see a small white gear shaped icon. If you move the mouse to the gear, you will see a drop down menu. Click on "share links" In the box that appears, click on the last link, "IMG"

    Then go to the body of the post on V8, and click to get a cursor. Then hold down the the Ctrl key and hit the V key and the link will appear. Then click on "Submit Reply"

    Because sometimes, I like to do things different:grin: After all, I'm one of those Northeast guys.
