Default Why are pictures not uploading

How come some people are able to add photos and I still can't. I know other people are getting the same problem-It says "NOT VALID IMAGE" no matter what pic I try to put in?

Chuck,

We aren't going to help you much with this until a few days after the holiday. I'm pretty sure you can upload pics to the gallery and link them via IMG still. (see the FAQ sticky at the top of the photoshop forum if you don't know how to do that).

Thanks
D

Dear Scrooge,

Our tech guys needed a couple of days off for Christmas to be with their families. Can they have them please without you beating them about the head and shoulders?

Seriously, we know this is an issue but it is a lower priority than the cookie login issue. There is a very simple workaround that allows you to post pictures in every post you want to. So use that instead if it gets 'too old' for you.

A) upload your picture(s) to the gallery
https://www.clublexus.com/gallery/uploadphoto.php

B) go the picture in the gallery. Highlight it, right click and choose the properties. Grab the picture URL and copy into your clipboard(see 'Method b' link below for more help if you need it) https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...362#post971362.

C) Start your post in the forum. Click on the little mountain button to insert an image . A popup box will appear and you paste your picture URL into it. This will automatically format the IMG tags for you and the picture will appear when you post your reply.

It sounds complex but its not. Very easy to do once you've done it once before. If you have problems making it work, just try it and then post here and someone will help you out finishing it if it isn't working .
