AnnHenry Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 I thought the secret was just to edit the current post, but it must be more than that. I posted my first picture (another thread) which posted beautifully. I wanted to add other pictures to that post, so I clicked on "Edit". When I tried to post the second, the box "Leave current file untouched" was checked by default (so) I didn't change it, and therefore the second picture didn't post. So I changed it from "Leave ..... untouched" to "Upload this file instead", and I got the second picture but lost the first. The only other options are to "rename" or "delete" and they don't seem to apply. So can someone tell me the secret of putting multiple pictures in the same post?

barbm Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 I have wondered the same thing. Have seen others do it, but can't remember who. Share with us!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmoore1223 Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 Here's some directions that I saved from another post. Hope it helps. you use webshots. If you do to place more than one photo onto the forum: Once you've gotton to the photo(s) you want to post on the screen you can slideshow on click on a photo, it shows it larger, look at the bottom right hand just below the photo, click the second to last icon (says: Copy the code to post this photo in a forum) On this page you can change the oixel size (Ido 425) Next copy the URL in the post in forum box Place this onto your APQS topic box Do this with each photo one after another Post reply (DO NOT PREVEIW) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnHenry Posted July 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 I was waiting and specifically hoping that there would be a way to do this through this forum without going through Webshots. I was hoping not to have to take the time to study Webshots at this point in time, but c'est la vie. As long as no one else has posted, evidently this is the only way. So thanks for the information, cmoore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiltmonkey Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 Ann, I don't think you need to use "Webshots" -- the only thing you need is to have your pictures on the web some place so you can link to them. Here is what I did: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiltmonkey Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 Click on the "insert an image" icon and copy and paste all of the URLs into the message box and post your reply and your photos will be there all in one message post like I did above. You need to have a URL link to each individual photo to do this, though. If your photos are out on the web some place you can do it. Otherwise, it's one photo at a time. Hope that helps.

Merryjo2003 Posted July 27, 2008 Report Share Posted July 27, 2008 I use photobucket. I just click on the add image icon and paste the url as many times as I have pics to attach. They all post in the same message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
