Just some quick advice please. I want to post photos that ihave taken with my digital camera but when i try to attach the photo in a post it always says that the file is invalid. Does anyone know why this is and how i go about posting photos. Any suggestions would be most welcome before i contact Louis.
Cheers all.

There maybe a quicker way but I would;
- Save photos to your computer.
- Use tinypic or another photo hosting site. upload onto there, then they give you a link which you copy and paste into here.

Andy, right click the photo you want to post and select Properties from the dropdown menu and post on here what the "File Type" is. From there we can be of more help.

A jpeg shouldn't be any problem at all.
If you want, post it on Facebook and tag me and I'll do it for you.

Cheers for that Dave although i'm not sure how to do that either!
All i was going to do was post a picture of that Torquay snowman i built with my little un. I put it on facebook so you might have seen it? Thought it would raise a few smiles during this bad weather snap.

could be that the image is too big; not sure what sort of filesize limit there is here but pics from digital cameras tend to be taken at a high resolutino (you know, because it's a camera) and are therefore pretty big. Probably about 4mb.

I think the most worrying thing is that it is actually MY shirt! One which i have worn too! In my defense the material is very stretchy. :Oops:
