I have tried to post pics the way I did. i.e. go advanced and then manage attachments, but this no longer works for me. Is there a new way to do it?

pictures need to be under 200 KB to work on CB

Many people use photo sites like Imgur to post pictures

I've not been able to post pics for months, no idea what the problem is.

I find most of the time it is the size of the picture I am trying to post. I use my phone for pictures and have an App on it called Resize Me. I can get the size down to where the site will accept them.

PHOTO POSTING 1-0-1
There are many solutions to picture hosting and posting. Here is ONE site and I am not affiliated there. It requires registration, has a simple Learning Curve, no fee, and is without restriction on the number of pictures hosted or their file pixels: POST MY IMAGES HERE (https://postimages.org/)

After you upload your picture, there will be a DIRECT LINK (important to note) to copy and paste in a post here between "["img"]" and "["/img"]" tags (eliminating the quotation marks). You are writing html code there...it is that simple!

Works every time without resizing...but DO NOT delete the picture you uploaded to the host site that is directly linked here or your picture in the castboolit thread will disappear.

If you are inclined to investigate, there is HTML code for pixel width and height of the pictures you display here.

There is Windows Powerpoint (PP) or LibreOffice Impress (same thing as PP) in which to pre-format multiple images, then use an App such as "SNIPPING TOOL" (on most computer's) to CUT and SAVE the image to your computer for uploading to the host site. As an example, this is one such group of images snipped from Impress on my machine and uploaded as a *.jpeg file to the host site above, then linked here:

There is nothing "magic" in learning. You can do this too. No "dog" is too old to learn.

Also, I am certain the Castboolit Moderators would appreciate ALL testing and learning to post pictures
