new Post an image function HELP!

oldworldlady — Wed, 16 Jan 2013 00:52:11 GMT

has anyone figured out a way to use the new post an image button? I used to be able to browse for an image on my computer before. Or do we go back to photobucket and cut and paste?

Thanks for any help.

Next to the smiley is a small black n white picture icon.

That is insert image, then browse and add.

Solved the problem. It doesn't work on a Firefox browser. I'm in Safari at the moment and it's working fine. I can see the picture icon in black and white, now.

You may have to sap browsers, azurline.

it doesn't seem to work in chrome either OWL. If I want to post a pic I have to switch to explorer.

I had the same problem today and got some help on the answer board.

I found that when I changed from Firefox to Explorer a different screen came up and by using the browser function I could post straight from my comp pics. It definitely did not work with Fire Fox

Which is a pain in the bottom, because I like to use Chrome for the discussion boards, it's much quicker. Explorer is a slow boat to China.

But If I want to post a pic I have to switch to Explorer.

I wonder if there's some backroom dealing going on with ebay and the ISPs

i did tidy the PC up a bit a few days ago, but i think the secret is one i learned watching kids and teenagers 'dive straight in' it either works or it doesn't. i was i admit a bit confused by the new features. 🙂 it will probably work sooner or later.. or not at all, and disappear without a trace.
