40larry, In my experience PM's do not allow that feature.

Re: Help attaching a photo to a private message.
The only way I have used is to load properly sized pics into your albums, then view the enlarged image. then copy the [IMG] link below the pic and paste in below message.

I always use emails after the initial contact. A lot more flexibility with emails.

If you want to post a picture saved from your personal computer, you must first post that picture somewhere on the internet. When you do that, that picture becomes a specifically-coded "URL". Just like above, you can now post that URL in a PM. So , just WHERE can you post your personal picture on the internet? Well, there are a whole bunch of image-hosting sites all over the WWW for that purpose. But, you can also post that picture in your personal ALBUM right here on the FordBarn. Ryan graciously affords each of us the opportunity to utilize an album, or two, or three.....! Anyway, once your pic is posted on your album, IT IS POSTED ON THE INTERNET! Now, just follow the procedure above to copy and paste the URL of those pictures from your personal album, to a PM in progress. I will send you a PM, including the picture of Lumpy's '40 convertible which can easily be found on the internet, plus a personal airplane picture from "MY PICTURES" on my computer which I uploaded to my FordBarn album just for you. Once you complete the "copy and paste" procedure above a few times, it becomes second nature. It sounds complicated, but in reality, I can usually copy and paste each individual "URL" into a PM in four or five seconds. Easy-peasy! Any more questions....just ask! See my PM to you! DD PS....Does anyone know what type of airplane this is pictured below? ........ Last edited by V8COOPMAN; 12-05-2020 at 02:36 PM. |

Good info V8. That explains my lack on knowledge in this area, I'm not into posting photos on the internet (outside of the Barn/HAMB).

Can also use the Test Section to host your pictures to send in PM's. Post your picture(s) into a thread in the Test Section, then copy that URL and insert it into your message.

Re: Help attaching a photo to a private message.
Thanks for that, Will!
Now....NOBODY knows what a B-23 is, so how is it that YOU know what a B-23 is? I hope you didn't cheat and use that "N"-number. YWB |
