Hi Mark,

After entering your message, look below Save, Preview, and Submit. Click on Upload Attachment. Click on Browse. Now find your file in whatever directory you have it in. Click on it. Click on Open. You will now see it next to Browse. Click on Add the file. Your file will start uploading. :)

I hope this has helped you out. ;)

Hi Mark,

I think Marty has left out but one last action:

After you've succeeded uploading your image, you click in your post and choose 'Place inline' (Button under posted attachments).

Goodluck,
Fred

Hi Mark,

If you still do not see an image in your post, click on Preview and you will see what your post will look like (image included). If you do not need to make any changes then click Submit.

I hope this and all of the above help you out. ;)

Hello friends,
Many thanks for your patience and support. Unfortunately, I will not be able to add a screenshot to my post because I still receive the red color information as follows: Your message contains too few characters. :(
Kind regards
Mark

Hi Mark,

Have you put an English narrative along with your screenshot? I have gotten the Red Message when I tried to Preview just an image. After I added words to the body of my post, I previewed again and everything was fine. :)

Are you trying to do a Landscape (which requires English of the author and source) or are you just trying to show some abnormality that has occurred? Either way, include an English narrative in the body of your post and the Red Message should be gone.

I hope this helps you out. ;)

Hi Mark,

in which file format did you save your screenshots before (.jpg or.png)? Did you checked this file on your computer? Can you open it?
I'm afraid you saved a zero.byte-file :(

Hello Werner,
That is a bitmap image of 675 KB size. I normally open it. I myself have done it from my desktop.
Thank you for your interesting.

Hi Mark,

If I understand you right, you are trying to upload a .bmp-file, right?
This type of file is not allowed, as said in red on the top of your screen when trying to upload: The extension bmp is not allowed.

Could you change your image to a .jpg-file and try again please?
