    I've attempted to upload the file. The percentage of completion is shown as it uploads. Sometimes reaching 100% then the error message.

    1972Mach1 Just some M.M.O.G. guy.....

    It does the same thing to me sometimes using my phone. No rhyme or reason. I go and edit the photo even just a tiny bit like zooming in the smallest amount then save it. It'll post the edited pic no problem.

    I usually right click on an image and select "copy". I then right click in the message box and select "paste".
    If that doesn't work I'll save them to my desktop and select the upload a file option.

    "board" is short for message board or discussion forum, like V8Buick.com.

    You can also select and paste an image from what you see on your computer.

    If you have Windows use the "Snipping Tool" and you can select the image.
    Then click on "Edit" then "Copy".
    Then go to the v8buick message window and click on "Edit" then "Paste".

    Or select using the Snip tool, then press the Control Key and press C to copy.
    Then go to the v8buick message window and press the Control Key and V to paste the image.

    (either do the same thing, but one uses the Snip Tool menu, and the other uses Keyboard short cuts)

    Try and let us know if that works.
