[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 3002652, member: 112"]Howdy Walt - [USER=90440]@Walt Knoch[/USER] Yes I can see that you have uploaded pictures before, so you obviously know how to do it. As for the message you are getting - these are the only picture file types that are allowed to be uploaded - .png, .jpg, .jpeg, .jpe, .gif So if you are trying to upload a picture that is not one of those file types, that's why it won't work. So if that is the case, you will need change the file types of your pictures. Then things will work normally. If however that is not the case, and the pictures you are trying to upload are one those files types, then you are having an entirely different problem. So, if you are having this different problem then do this. Look up at the top of the top of the page, see where your user name is in the dark blue tool bar ? Click on your user name. That will take you to a page that looks like this - [ATTACH=full]743227[/ATTACH] Once you are on that page, see where it says Preferences near the bottom of the left hand column ? Click on Preferences. That will open a page that looks like this - [ATTACH=full]743231[/ATTACH] Now what you need to is look for the line that says - Use the Flash-based uploader to upload attachments It is the 4th one from the bottom up in that picture I posted above. In front of, to the left of, the word Use there is a small check box. If there is a check mark in that small box, click on the check mark, that will remove the check mark.
