The drag a drop practice works for me. One has to wait a bit while the file is copied over. The browse and "open" option does not work with my system. Files over the size limit will not load. Do hit the "done" button when finished.

I have photos in the attachment manager, I just can't seem to post them.

1minute explains it nicely. However, there's other ways to do it. You can right click on the photo when it's in the manager. Save the picture address and then insert/paste the image in between img. brackets [img]insert image address here[/img]. This will allow the rest of us to see your picture.. It's a royal pain in the azz to do it this way, but for some reason Rick feels it's important and safer??????????? One thing I noticed right away is the pictures are not as good: They are grainy, out of focus and are of varying sizes???? Unlike when we used to be able to use photobucket.
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

I am learning as we go with this as well.
The pictures will load at full resolution. In the Image Gallery if you click on them, they will open at full resolution. In posts throughout the rest of the site, the software will reduce them so they do not break the margins of the page, which is a big deal especially as we make the final turn into going fully mobile compatible.
I still don't use te drag and drop function, but to display pics in posts throughout the site, at the end of the day the code ends up the same way, which is to say, [img]securehttpsaddresshere[/img].
What makes it secure is not whether you use drag and drop or cut and paste, but rather that at the end of the process you are displaying an image that starts with https. That is the key.

Rick, I'm noticing some guys are switching to imgur. Is that a good option or is just a matter of time before you shut that one down as well??? Thanks..
