I have tried to upload an image to my posting. When you go into preview the image should you see the image then as all I am seeing is an empty box with a small red cross.

Is your attachment in a file format that is recognised? It has to be a jpg or gif (not a png or JPEG)

Also it has to be smaller than 97kB I think before it will upload.

Thank Chris and yes it is a JPEG. Size is 96 pixels.

Save the image as jpg rather than JPEG and see if that works.
Some bulletin boards are very fussy about the type of images that can be uploaded

Also have a look at this thread:

I am pretty hopeless at these IT sort of things but still managed it with help from this thread.

I suggest you do not use GIF as that is OK for avatars but not photos

It is easy in your programme to save as a jpg rather than jpeg (they are slightly different, so you cannot just change the name)
