how to send image to forumFORUMS HOME SEARCH FORUMS

Hi,

Can't work out how to incorporate image from my PC to this forum.

I can see image button but how do I use it?

I copy/paste directly interest a post, but sometimes it won't accept a "large" image. It's a bit clunky

thanks Mark,

so simple I didn't find it,

i'll leave the 'image' button for pros

Hi!

Thanks for the help, Mark. :)

This is actually something I wanted to talk to you about.

In a previous topic, you talked about this image size issue, and we looked into it recently with Arnaud.
He wanted to change the max image size one can paste to a post, but the issue is that the maximum post size is 100Ko, and from what I understand, it is difficult to increase.

So, for now, the only reliable solution is to use third-party websites to publish a link rather than a picture.
We did not remove the copy/paste option, but depending on the size of the post, it might not work.

I'm sorry we weren't able to find a solution for this issue.

All the best,
Julien

Julien,

Thanks for the feedback.

Even a 300 x 358 pixel screengrab is 132kb. If I choose a high compression, a 600 x 800 below the 100kb. Still does not copy/paste.

Hi Mark,

Thanks for your additional feedback.

I haven't had any issues with all the recent screengrabs I posted, but I tend to keep them quite small.

In this topic, I was able to add two screenshots for the F12 console, in case they were needed.

I just tested copying a 128 KB image (679x468) from the Snipping Tool, and it worked. However, copy/pasting that same image from the Media viewer didn't work.

I'm not sure the team will be able to change anything, but I'll bring this up again.

Best regards,
Julien

Julien,

Yes, I noticed, which triggered my response.

Over the years, I have had varying success; as you know, you will have seen screengrabs I've put up for other when advising.

I'll bear in mind the Snipping Tool tip.

Mark
