Recently uploaded a photo. However, it's not enlargeable. What's the correct process to do this?

It depends on if it's an image or a thumbnail

This is how I do it:
1. Reply to thread (or start a new one)
2. Click on Attach button (paper clip) which opens File Upload Manager
3. Drag an existing picture to the Attachments pane, or Add a new file which will automatically include it in the Attachments pane
4. Click Insert Inline button (should have a number corresponding the the # of pictures in the Attachment pane
5. Click Done
6. Separate each attachment entry with a blank line, including from the text surrounding the pictures (makes it easier to view the thumbnails
7. Click Preview Post to check it looks ok (you can click on a thumbnail to expand it)
8. Click Submit Reply

If clicking on the pictures does not open them in a new window at a larger size, your uploaded pictures might be too small

Not sure this is what you are looking for - the following is what I do.

My original files are huge -- 5184 pixels ( 72 inches) x 3456 pixels (48 inches) at 72 pixels per inch.

I typically use Adobe Photoshop to add my watermark, captions and then export to desktop or a file. I export at 50% ( Traynham Ranch Show for example). This results in files of 2592 pixels x 1728 pixels and file size of 3 mb.

Some sites limit or restrict sizes of photos. One site I have used restricts to 1024 x 768 pixels and 72 dpi ( dots per inch)

Usually, the larger the picture, the greater the dpi for top quality, the web does not require high dpi as you would for printing purposes. Low dpi and large print size usually result in grainy appearances when printing.

Every program ( applications) works differently, however you should be able to resize your pictures to the sites requirements.

Once in a file or on desktop, use the "attach" (paper clip), a pop up box will appear - choose from Computer and the file, choose your photo and upload.
You will have to upload each file ( picture) individually. (Keep track of what you have uploaded, it is so easy to make multiples!)
You can always edit the posting to remove or add a photo.

Best of luck, hope this helps.

[quote="Garlic Pete"]Looks cold. Please turn up the heat.

Other than that, looks like it worked!

We'll expect hundreds uploaded now.

Yah, I overcame the learning curve for posting photos. Looks cold, but it isn't. It's been pretty mild for the most part here in Maine. Not much snow either. I like all the seasons. When it's winter, I want snow. When it's summer, I want it hot.

Works perfectly Mark, and I'm with you on the need for distinct seasons. I was in Fiji once and asked the guy how the seasons changed - he said it's 83 in summer (ah, nice), but then in winter it's 83 (brrr - chilly). I replied, nice to visit but looking forward to getting home : )

Mark,
No Chains on grader?
How do you keep the loaded wing from pushing you around? If you plow heavy wet snow at slow speed or against a berm, be ready.
The "sierra cement" I worked was heavy, wet and as slick as STP! Had to keep the snow rolling off or it would push you sideways, wing on rear corner like a crowbar!

I've plowed snow with graders since I was 16. I've had the 70D since 1999, the 120 14k since 2004 and my 12E (all haves wing plows) since 1997 and I've only needed chains a handful of times. If I had steep or long hills or was pushing a V plow, I would put chains on. But with good treads and keeping up with snowfall rates, there's absolutely no need to run chains. Just because there's a wing plow on a grader doesn't equal the need for chains. Don't want to seem snobbish, but know the machine, be skilled with it, keep your route pushed back (why would you push against snow banks? ....keep route pushed back and benched after the storm. Big storms aren't the time for pushing back and benching/shelving) Am I stating the obvious? Otherwise, ya, you should run chains, because they'd be needed.

Look...no hands.....I mean tire chains. Plowed 8-12 inches of wet snow that fell last night. No problems. I also saw the Towns JD 772BH and a local contractors 140G and his old 120 14K (like mine), all with wing plows and....no tire chains. We must being doing something wrong here. I'll have to look into it.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
