Uploading pictures

[bmudd14474]

I use Chromium Browser on Linux. Im unable to upload pics . In order to upload pics i have to do it in firefox which i dont like using . Is there a way to fix this problem ?

What issue are you having? We have other users on Linux that can use Chromium and I haven't heard of any issue.

I don't seem to be able to upload pics unless I use Firefox. When I go to upload a pic ,it acts like its going through the motion but nothing is happening

I just downloaded Chromium and used it with no issue. Was able to upload as normal. Have you tried reinstalling it? Is it the latest release?

 

[Catfish61x]

Yes .
My system is up to date.
Let me Uninstaller it and try again

Looks good to me

Catfish61x After you uploaded it did you go down to the picture and click on thumbnail or full screen? If you didn't then it wont show in the text field until you post it.

In the sad post below the user has a clickable YouTube video, How is this done?

My little buddy has gone to the great BBQ in the sky. RIP Boomer aka Skidmark... you'll be dearly missed.

Sorry I haven't been around much lately, but between work and spending as much time as I could with skidmark. It's been a tough week. This morning around 3:30 we had to put my little buddy to sleep. He'll be greatly missed. Chris This is a song by Henry Gross written as a tribute to Shannon...

you just insert the shared link from youtube in your response and it will show up like that when you post.

If you want to add a link to existing text, you don't simply paste/insert the link. That will work for inserting a link, but the person looking at your post will be staring at a long URL, for instance:

https://www.smokingmeatforums.com/threads/uploading-pictures.268531/post-2160413

Instead, first type the text, e.g.:

Link To Previous Post

Then select that text.

Link To Previous Post

Finally, with the text selected, click the link button (looks like two chain links) at the top of the editing area, and paste the link into that box. When you click on OK, your link will be complete. Here is that live link:

Link to Previous Post

Just a little feature and clearing up what may be confusing. So you can upload pictures a few ways depending if its a file from your computer or from a site like Flickr. So if your using the IMG tag you can just put it in with the text. You can use the picture icon

Then paste the url in the box that pops up.

But if you want to upload a bunch of pictures from your computer you can either click "upload a file" below the text box or click and drop them in the text box.

Here is where I think this is a cool feature. Once you have attached all the picture you want they will show in a box below the text box.

What this allows you to do is type your thread then just go to this box and click on either full image or thumbnail and it will insert the picture right where your typing.

So like I said this is a cool feature in my opinion. I hope this helps and doesn't confuse anyone.

Also if you do not insert the images into the text then it will just show the file as an attachment instead of inserted into the text.

So often uploading from my iPhone pix are rejected as too big.
