Problems with downloading pictures

[Bandit1200]

I'm having problems attaching a picture to a thread.
I've followed Drews instructions but get no further than Select Files. There is no response.
Anybody have any idea?
Thanks in advance
Steve

Hi Steve,

Yeah - after an 'upgrade' a few months ago, I (and others) found that the 'select files' didn't work any longer

Instead, you have to click on 'basic uploader' (which doesn't really look like a button) then 'choose file' and, when chosen (which I reckon takes longer these days ) click 'upload file(s)'.

Good luck.

Cheers

Julian

I'm having problems as well, even with basic loader

Ditto to all of the above. It's become a real pain. Basic Uploader means you have to upload one pic after another. It also occasionally doesn't work and everything freezes up.

The danger is that people will start linking to other picture websites like Photobucket. In 3 years time they'll re-organise their Photobucket files, forgetting the pics that were linked, and the SOC Forum will have a lot of technical tips and tricks with a red cross as an accompanying picture.

Getting the upload working properly is a step to safeguarding the heritage of the SOC Forum.

Thanks to all for responses.
I've followed Julian's instructions and as a result may be able to assist Graham in his search for a plastic wallet.
Best Wishes
