Lets see if I have the hang of this now? It looks as if I have. What I did was to take a picture from my website, resize (600x450) and rename and load it to a hidden page on the website. From there I was able to drag and drop. Be interesting to know if you can load a slightly larger photo into the main text of a story. Looks as if the Story Section is back in business?

In the past I've used 'easythumbs', setting the max width to 430 for 'discussions' and 600 for 'stories' . I've now taken to using the 'paint' utility in windows- resizing to 600 pixels wide with 'maintain aspect ratio' selected. You can also add text or copyright mark.

You seemed to have squashed your photo a bit! I've dragged it by 'viewing image' and then dragging back into here. When resizing, only set the width, and allow the resize to set the proper height. I've got two tabs side by side logged into CT to make things 'easier'. Looking at the page code it has 'shrink to fit' before the photo address.

Just a test as text went awry in the previous trial of drag & drop photo experiment. Seems OK now.

FAO chasncath. “drag and drop from your url.” I am not much good at understanding the mechanics/techy bit of this but when you say url I guess you mean the extra tab I had open which I thought was part of the CC site. For whatever reason it just put the link there instead of the picture for me. When I enter it into my web browser it brings up the picture at the size you put in the main body. I shall try this method again later - it's certainly challenging me. Thanks for sorting it.

I opened a second tab in my browser and pasted "https://www.caravanclub.co.uk/globalassets/discussions/85da85d0-3061-44f1-8721-d57f5db28320 " into the adress bar.
Your photo appeared in its full size. I then left clicked (and held) on the photo and dragged the little rectangular emblem towards the other tab. The other tab then opens up again and, having positioned the rectangle in my awaiting blank reply ( having already placed my cursor in the blank reply as if about to type), released the right button.
Bingo! a full-width photo in place!

I'm sticking with the present method! I can't replicate what you are doing CnC and I'm glad after x number of years I can at least add a photo!

I have tested ie, chrome and firefox on windows laptop and can see photos including yours, David. Now on android tablet I can also see them using chrome and firefox browsers.
I have found that my tablet always goes to its cached version of webpages and the page needs to be refreshed to fetch the photo from the remote site. Try refreshing!

For Deleted User User – I also can only see the words “Alpine Chough” & “Two pictures here, will display in Chrome and Android but not Firefox” on you post @ 12.08
For chasncath . I was going to try drag & drop method but as there seem to be problems I’ll give it miss & try & post a snapshot of what I see on my screen of your recent post. Not sure if it will work.

For Deleted User User
Page 23 Posted on 12/02/2017 14:56 As you say David it seems as though if the picture is oversize then it just displays in the browser and not the forum, this was the only one on a page that would insert
If you mean the above then no there is no picture showing on my screen.
Don't know if anyone else can see the picture.

Why all this complicated malarkey? Why not just resize (easy) on PC or tablet and click add photo etc?

My flower pictures appear but the one you posted on 12/02/2017 14:56 has not appeared on my Android phone. Basically anything I can see on here in Window 10 using Chrome appears on my Android phone using Chrome and my iPad using OS 9.35. I have tried Firefox and mine and Chas's picture appear but not yours. David the other two pictures that don't appear anywhere is your recent post, 13/02/2017 12:08, with two pictures which just show the frame but no image and where you made the note:- Two pictures here, will display in Chrome and Android but not Firefox.
