Gday Wozza,
A few options. Sometimes I just upload onto photobucket or another site, and copy the link into my thread. Otherwise, if you have the pic on your computer (not too large a file size though), are you clicking the icon in the tool bar (with the fonts, bullets etc) that looks like a framed pic that says 'insert image' when you hover over it?
If not, click on that, it will give you the option to select images, choose your pics from your computer, then click 'upload files'. If they are too large, it will give you the dreaded red cross, and you may need to resize them smaller first :thumb:

Upside down photos

This is doing my head in. Every time I upload a photo off my desktop it loads fine, but its upside down. I've resized it, turned it, spoken harshly to it...no joy.

Can someone lend a hand please.

Plenty of info on uploading, but couldn't find a thread that covers this issue specifically.

Change from northern hemisphere to Southern Hemisphere in settings.

Desktop? Far out granddad.

My only thought is that there's some orientation metadata that's getting picked up by your computer but not the uploader. So the image is physically upside down but the operating system knows to rotate it so it appears like it's correct to you. I usually use Pinkbike whenever I want to host an image and then just embed it from there.

Not helpful.

I'm not your Granddad Poodle, I could say something rude about your mother, but I won't, use your imagination.
Keep it up and I'll put you over my knee young man!

Thanks, I think.
