Problem uploading pics

I spoke to Andy yesterday and he said there had been a problem I wondered if they had sorted it.

There was a message the other day .. which day ..  :-\ .. he'd contacted the web hosting as to the problem and to get a reply .. until then or when it works, don't give up trying, you'll get there in the end.

I just up-loaded two images ok without any problems. This works a little differently from other forums that you just up-load the images from your computer, it does not work with a link image like on the woodworkers institute.

Sorry if I'm telling you something that you already know.

I have learnt the first rule of woodturning.
The internal diameter should never exceed the external width.
Nor the internal depth, the external height.
Does that make me an expert now ?

Hi George,  have been to your site, what I'd done was pick an image, right click, save image as, the options are yours as to where or which file on desktop you save it too, then here make the thread, scroll down to Additional Option, Attach: Browse, find file, open and add image once found.. select additional by (more attachments) .. now to see if it works.. FOR ME ..   ;D ...

Cheers  David

 PS.. Size for these images off your website have worked OK ..
