How do I post screenshots?

[thosrtanner]

I tried to post a question with a couple of screenshots to demonstrate the problem. Using the uploader says I'm not allowed to post links, and including the picture inline said i wasn't allowed to use the extension (having tried, png, jpg and gif extension).

Help!

You need more posts before you can post pictures.

The easiest way is to host them elsewhere ( i use http://postimage.org/ myself as its free and doesn't require registration ) and then use the image button in the top bar and stick in the url

Yes sometimes i cannot post what i want  ... but that's  because the files ( or pictures) are not in a folder i can " Share" !!! ...  ( and i always use a "limited" user account , without "Administrator" 's  rights of course ...)

 

That's not because i'm not "allowed" by the site , but  just because i'm not allowed by my security settings !

 

( I use KIS 2013 as  Antivirus ...)

I think it's just a securitiy " issue" .

 

Try to put your pictures in your  " document" ( from your user account of course) folder first. Or put them on a disk partition that use the FAT32 system and not the NTFS ...

 

There is a little difference between XP operating system or Windows7 ( sorry , i don't use Windows8) but most of the time the "issue/problem" is the same.

 

Cheers.

I tried doing that but all it gives me is a page with a strange string on it which doesn't appear to work as a link of any sort (in IE and firefox). And I can't post links anyway

As SpyderArachnid already said the reason why you can't post links/photos is because you are a new member and you have to have X amount of posts before you are allowed to post pictures and links it is a spam prevention thing to keep the number of spam accounts down.

That makes sense was think that's the problem.

I remember having able to post before but since I have been away for so long its like I cannot post pictures anymore.

I'm in the same boat, I'm new and want to share but I guess I'll have to wait a little and see what happens
