This feature is for Subscribers only, as the "image attachment" feature is a subscriber perk. (
Sign up for as little as £1 a month!)
You can now upload/attach images via the forum as usual, but insert them at intervals in your post. No more having a stream of images at the bottom of your post only with no context.
This is a bit of a techy one, so if you would prefer not to worry about this you can carry on as before attaching images to your post and they will show at the bottom.
Instructions1. Create your new post and click the "+" Attachments button below the post, as usual.
2. Choose your picture attachment
3. Once the picture has been selected, after a few seconds you should see an option "Insert Attachment X"
4. Place your cursor in the post box where you want the image to show
5. Click "Insert Attachment X" for the attachment you want, and a piece of BB Code will be added to your post
6. Click post, and the image will show where the code was placed in your post.
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Notes for considerationImages put inline will show at the size they are saved on your machine, or at 100% of the page width whichever is smaller. Therefore images uploaded in this way might look HUGE and you are encouraged to resize them to a more pleasant size before uploading. Picresize is good for this:
http://www.picresize.com/ 600px is a nice width.
Also, clicking the "preview" button will show a message "attachment has not been uploaded yet". This is OK. The image will only get uploaded once you click "post" so use this message to check you have the picture in the right place, and then click "post" and it will show.
