upload it to a site like Photobucket.com, and copy and paste the image URL to the BBS

actually in this forum if you click on the "additional options" at the bottom of the posting screen you can upload an image directly.

a time out sounds like a network issue, you can just try again a little later.  Also make sure the image your uploading isn't bigger than what the BBS allows (forget the number but it tells you on the upload screen).

Every time I try to post using the "Additional Options" tab, I get this sequence of events:





The size limit is 2048kb, which translates to less than 2mb.  It seems my pics are all too big.  Why can't the error message just state that, instead of the misleading error message it currently gives?  :headscratch:

Now how do I reduce the size of my pics?
