Multiple photos within the same post

[RavensGryf]

HOW in the world do you do this...

When I attempt to use the photo upload method directly from this forum, it allows me put only ONE photo per post. Is there no way to post more than one?

If I want to post several photos within the same post, does that need to be done through an outside photo program like photobucket? I'm also having trouble with my app is that the only way to do it?

I'd like to be able to attach several photos in one post with captions written by each photo. Thanks!

You can only upload one photo at a time, but you should be able to upload at least 5 photos per post. Once the first photo has been uploaded, you repeat the process.

Considering you only have "X-Amount" of space to upload images, it would be recommended to use the Albums or Photobucket (or another image hosting website) if you want to have multiple photos.


I don't know what the storage limit is, but I know that if I haven't reached mine, I'm near it! I have 14 photos using 1 MB of storage.

It will allow 5 really? I try to attach a pic, then click upload, then when it's done I would repeat the process, BUT instead of adding more pics it just OVERRIDES the last one.

I know I have a lot of space left, but unless I figure out how to attach up to 5 like you said, I won't be using it as much.

I will have to fill my album first when I get time, then copy pics from the album to a post? Is that what you mean?

Do you have a photobucket account?

Your album here only has so much storage space, so keep your file sizes small so you can upload more pictures.

Photobucket you just copy and paste the URL link into the post.

Are you uploading from phone, computer or both? What browser are you using?


Can you show me an image of what the "Manage Attachments" popup looks like after uploading a photo?

Apps never work right for me on my phone either. Just use photo bucket on your laptop or desktop (if you have one). Much easier Oh, and FYI (in case you didn't know already, it took me a minute to figure out ) you copy the "Direct" link off photo bucket and then click the little yellow photo icon on the top of the reply box or new thread (with the mountain and sun) and paste the link in. I think BETWEEN smilies and photos, you can have '10' total each post

I'm either using an iPhone or an iPad right now. No PC at this time unfortunately. I'll have more regular access to one after moving next month. That might be my problem right there, the fact that I'm not using a PC.

Next time I'm at the PC, I'll sign up for Photobucket. If I have time later I'll try and figure out the phone and iPad app to see if I can get it going. Too tired at the moment!
I usually like to use my phone camera (it's not great, but better than the iPad camera for some reason, though neither one give true colors). I do have a decent digital camera, but I haven't used it for a couple years... I'll have to blow off the dust and remember how to use it!

All my pictures were taken with my phone as I have a Galaxy S3, upgrading in July for the new S5, the metal backing version that's coming. Then I upload everything to my Photobucket, open the app and copy direct link then paste it here.
