Hi swagger.

I am not sure what you mean by "bit old skool" but there are several ways you can upload photos to the forum.

Have a read of these threads and see if you get the hang of it.

How to post pics

Adding pics to a post

The FS section is an exception as there is a bug in the form code:

Note: The form used in all the For Sale areas has a bug in it where it won't accept us linking directly to the image uploading box without a user linking to a picture via a URL.

The picture doesn't have to be related and if you don't have one then just link to fordforums.com.au/clear.gif - it's basically a picture of a blank pixel.


Once you have done that and clicked submit you will be taken to the normal picture upload dialogue box where you can upload as you normally would.

Because most people actually read the instructions and manage to post photos.

If there is a Macophile on list could you please help me here.

I am unable to post a pic because it says they have to be 146.8 kb or less and I do not seem to be able to get them under 150 kb
