Can't figure how to paste images to Interact posts.
Any ideas?
-
put them on your web site.
if you don't have one get one.

You don't actually need to build a website as such, just getting the picture files onto a webserver will do.
Try uploading the file to the free webspace your ISP has surely provided you with, (again, if you're not sure how, check the members area of your isp's website for instructions) then when you want the pic displayed in your post, you link to it like so...
[im g]insert address of file here[/im g]
removing the spaces between 'm' and 'g' which I inserted to stop the board from displaying a white square with red cross.

That's an absorb lot of work just for something that is normally a very simple Edit Paste procedure.
No wonder I don't see very many images displayed!
I have many times wanted to show the error dialog boxes I sometimes get with MC but will simply continue to verbally describe them instead!
This goes along with the problem of pasting text from Word into Interact... you sometimes get strange results with a lot of ??? such as I?m instead of I'm.
Can't (or is it Can?t) something be done to make Interact more user friendly (or is that an obsolete term nowadays?)
Sorry for the sarcasm, but Interact is sometimes a real pain-in-the-you-know-what when it comes to ease of use.

and it only takes about 30 seconds to put up a picture in the forum
Image on Hard Drive
