I’ll start by admitting that I’m no good at tech.
How do I include a photo in a post?
When I click on the photo icon, it asks the source . I mean usually that is like multiple choice or something in my experience. It’s just a pic I have in “photos” in my iPhone.
Im sure you younger guys can set me straight 😁
please.
thanks,
Rich
Dec 19, 2022 at 3:11 pm #3768065I am am responding from my iPhone. Select the photo icon above, A window will open up and on the first bar on the right it is looking for a “source”. Click on that and then select “photo library”. You may have to turn your phone 90 degrees to get a better view of the selections.
click on the photo that you would like and select the size. This photo is 400×400. Best wishes.
Dec 19, 2022 at 4:21 pm #3768069I should have written the topic in the form of a question…
I have been unable to post a picture.
Looking for help.thanks

Dec 19, 2022 at 4:24 pm #3768070I saw what you described but I saw no options. I will do as you suggest and I will try again.
Thank You.
Dec 19, 2022 at 4:39 pm #3768071I just copied the image address from the image to the right, and then pasted it. The image then appears.
Dec 19, 2022 at 4:43 pm #3768072Or, click on the rightmost ikon “insert/edit image”
A window appears. Click on the camera ikon.
Then select a photo on your PC. Then click “ok” and the image appears
(That would be a tick burrowing into my flesh)

are we playing Jeopardy now?
since I seriously answered your question I am now entitled to one dad joke
Dec 19, 2022 at 4:54 pm #3768074Here’s how I do it from my phone.
Note that I turned the phone for steps 2–5 like Jon mentioned.

Matt beat me to it. It helps to turn your phone into landscape mode.

Dec 20, 2022 at 10:55 am #3768100Yay! The camera icon was just out of sight over to the right snd landscape brought it into view!

I’m m posting a pic of my pack
just to see if it works.
Dec 21, 2022 at 9:09 am #3768167On my desktop and there is not photo icon in the bar. Attempts to upload file with the click button below description fails. Get error msg to upload either jpg or png, which I’ve done.
Dec 21, 2022 at 9:54 am #3768171I took a screenshot and circled (crudely) in red the icon
Dec 21, 2022 at 10:44 am #3768177Interesting how the photo icon is on this page but not gear swap.
