I guess the owners of this forum don’t want anyone to post pictures anymore. Since numerous people have posted about the problem but nothing has been said or done. Sad

There are two theories to arguing with a woman... neither works.

Well, with all due respect to your opinion, I am grateful that Active Interest Media hosts this site as I've found it invaluable over the years.  It is free.  It is maintained fairly well.  Software has issues, that's a fact of life.  There are also workarounds, and frankly, the old software did not allow for direct posting of pictures anyway.  Put pics in a hosting site, I use Flickr, then insert using the url insert tool, or as I often do, create an album and link to the album.  Small price to pay, at least for me, for the benefits this site offers.  While I understand your frustration, I would not want to alienate AIM's support of this site.

Here's a pic using my first option, took all of 10 seconds:

Sad, sad I say!

Or you know, you could learn to do it instead of complain.

Many different hosting sites work just fine.  Flickr for example :

Posted this from a website. Right click for menu, left click copy. Click insert image button, paste into URL box. 10 seconds or less. Didn't use a hosting site.

Actually I was very glad that the site allowed posting pics with the new software.  

I don't think they have not allowed it - I think its broken and fixing isn't a priority.

Obviously there is a work around by using a hosting service.  I just liked uploading here instead - hate hosting sites

But for the price of this forum - it's all good
