Photos in Threads...Problem?

[Apple Tree Crafts]

Is it me? Am I doing something wrong? When I click on the symbol to add a picture directly into my threads nothing happens, and I end up putting in a link.

Have I missed a new regulation or something?

I am having the same problem along with it also taking so slow to move from one page to another.I though it wa my computer but none of the other sites I go on are slow.

my photo's have been doing the same.

...I thought it was because I'm technically challenged!

My page loading speed is also slow. I blame January. Everyone is on a go-slow. ;)

Some photos are blocked but also the forum limits the size of the images..

Seem to work for me ?

Nope...tried to 'insert image' but you don't get the box into which you can put the image http......

Why are some images blocked?

Many site block image, photobucket being one of them.. If you use them switch to flickr which doesn't block its images..

Images are blocked due to bandwidth and you can host images for free and use up their bandwidth vs your own..

...still get nothing when I click on the 'insert picture' button....

All my pictures are showing properly on Photobucket, and i can put in links to them, but I can't put the pic directly into the thread because there's no box appearing to put the url into.

I can't get my avatar to upload ?
What do you use to scale down your pictures ? On other forums I reduce using picture manager, compress for web pages, but the image is still too big ?
