    Default Difficulty posting, Particularly pictures

    I have been attempting to add a post to an existing thread since last night and cannot load pictures. I have made multiple attempts and tried to log in from different points on the Forum. have also rebooted the computer. No obvious problems with other web sites. Connection to the Forum is very slow also. Even starting this thread initially I received an advice that the site could not be reached, although I sat and waited and the connection was made.

    Is anybody else having this problem? Happy to provide more detail if required for troubleshooting.

    Regards
    Paul

    My problem is that often I click on a thread and the computer just displays a blank page for a very long time with a message "waiting for WWF...." in the bottom left of the screen.
    I then abort the load and refresh the page and it appears instantly. This doesn't happen with any other forum only to WWF.

    Just noticed that it also is happening with the FOG so its not WWF's fault but probably should lay the blame at Telstra's door.

    The problem I am experiencing is not normal. Just yesterday and today.

    Paul,

    I had a problem with my photos on my "Rocket" thread this afternoon. Thought it was my Broadband connection. Re-inserted later and seems OK

    I tried to upload some pics yesdy and I noticed the "Insert inline" button wasn't there, meaning the pics would all just be attachments at the bottom of the post. The only way around that was to upload to my library and then get a BBL code and insert that inline.

    picture upload

    Carnauba 25 kg.jpguploaded from attachments folder
    box lock.jpg uploaded to attachments folder from computer then from folder to here.
    Both the above were uploaded using the Attachments tab.

    machine1.jpg Uploaded directly from computer using Insert Image Icon/buton.


    These were uploaded from website using Insert Image Icon/button.

    All uploaded instantly with no delays or problems.

    I had no access to the internet yesterday - Had it, but slower than dial-up even had trouble getting the email, so didn't use it. Glad I pay for super fast cable.... NOT! May have have been isolated problems due to storms. Still slow much of today. Turned off modem anl let it reset. All running lightning fast again now.

    Cheers - Neil

    Rightio... IMG_5118.JPG ....got it. Haven't used that Insert Image method before. I think some of the difficulty is that there are a number of different ways of uploading pics, some of which seem to change (like the Insert Inline button going).
