Lucky for you, I'm up late tonight and had time to consult a manual for your specific problem.
Here's what I found out ;) :
  • A - There's a good chance that the reason the formula offered to help you post a picture, does not fit your specific device.
  • B - Your device possibly comes with a complicated language suite which, when the user (you) tries to make a post with a picture, the language suite cannot properly untangle the mishap between New Zealand semantics vs. English-based speaker semantix.
  • C - Speaking of New Zealand, I found out that it's nearly 8K+ miles from the US mainland, therefore, because you're there and we're here, there's a slight chance that applying a remedy might work.
  • D - The Remedy: According to the fake diagnostic manual in my library of manuals, it recommends, and it's not a light suggestion either, to find the nearest Femme in your neighborhood (or town) and pull them aside to show them your device and explain to them how you need their help to figure out what to do next. Fortunately, this remedy duals as a back-door approach to flirting with said Femme from your hometown neighborhood and also acts as a natural invitation to join you at this website, whereby both of you will naturally become the best of friends and therefore, it's likely you'll not only solve the "why I can't post a picture" problem, but also benefit by having an enjoyable mutual dialogue with a beautiful Femme who resides near you.
Seriously though, I'm not sure how to help you. But I'm thinking that it's an issue directly associated with the device you are using. Are you using a computer (i.e., a notebook or a desktop or something like that)?? Or, are you using a particular kind of phone (Android)? I think possibly if you talk it over with Parker or Linus (if they've got some spare time on hand), maybe either one of them will be able to help you figure it out. If not them, maybe another member on the boards will be able to help you sort it out; hopefully they'll come along soon!


Sorry, puddin', I wish I could have been more helpful
(I'm hoping my fake analysis gave you a laugh or two, though).

I had a thought - I was thinking of posting a pic of something in a thread but posting it to my gallery first, then I remembered that you (general you) cant grab the url of the pic from the galleries here bc you cant right click the pics (to keep people who dont own them from saving them, I assume), so I was going to grab the link in the address bar and just link to the pic in my gallery.

It made me wonder where you are getting the url for the pic(s) you want to post in threads/sig - are you right clicking and selecting "copy image url" or are you grabbing the link from the address bar?

If you look at your information to the left of any post, you will see it says My Photo Gallery and is underlined. That's a quick link to it that I usually use.

I believe that thread was deleted - the owners created it when the gallery went down, but once the gallery was back up, they closed and *I think* deleted the thread.

You can get to your or another specific member's gallery as Gemme suggested: click on the "My Photo Gallery" link to the left of your/their posts, just under your/their avatar, join date, and location.

If you want to go straight to the main gallery page, you can do so from the BFP home page - to the left of the screen, there is a column of black buttons with pink lettering. Third one from the bottom, just above the chat room and home page is "Photo Gallery." Click that and you will be on the gallery's main page. From there, you can click on random photos, see the most recently uploaded, look in specific categories, or go to your own gallery by clicking on "My Photos" in the top pink line, just below the green line with things like User CP, Community, and Arcade on it.

If all of that was a bit much or confusing (I am more visual myself, so written directions dont always work for me), there is a thread called BFP How To Videos in this same "Questions from Members/ Troubleshooting" forum that has more info on the gallery, how to get there, and what to do when you're there. :)

fatallyblonde 01-02-2014 06:17 PM

thank you sooo much Parker! I have posted some pics! :D

Hi,

Is it not possible to have a profile picture? I am a non-paying newbie.

Cheers,
Mathilda

Parker 01-16-2014 04:25 AM

Hey Falcon ~

To upload profile pics and custom avatars, a member just needs to have a subscription of BFP Supporter II or above. You can see the different subscription levels and their corresponding options --> HERE <-- or by clicking on the black and puink "Subscriptions" button on the home page. :)

C0LLETTE 01-24-2014 05:29 PM

" above the empty text box, you will see a row of formatting icons. The 4th icon is a picture of a postcard with a stamp on it, is the icon you will select when desiring to include a photo in your post. "


Do the formatting icons only appear for folks with paid subscriptions? Also, is this what is meant by "attachments"? .. where it says that "You may not post attachments" I know, I know!!!but I have almost zero tech vocabulary..........

Hey C0LLETTE-

You should be able to see them no matter what your subscription level.

Try this video for a visual help!

-----

Go online and find the pic you want to post - if it is a pic from your computer, you need to upload it to a hosting site first like Flickr or whatever. Personally, I use Facebook because it's easier for me to have all my stuff in one place. :winky:

When you find or upload the pic you want to share, open it in a new tab/window so you are not just saving the URL of a thumbnail of the pic. Then right click the pic, scroll to copy image URL and left click that to save the URL of the pic:



https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...42165141_n.jpg



Then come to BFP and go to the thread that you want to post the pic - click on the little picture icon up there:

https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...07495723_n.jpg



A little box will come up asking you for the image URL - right click in that box and click on paste to paste the URL of the pic you want to post - making sure to paste over the "http://" that is already in the box - to do that, dont left click inside the box, just right click over the highlighted "http://" and paste your link:



https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...58584237_n.jpg

https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...61742239_n.jpg



Click ok and you will see a lot of code in your post - it will be the URL of the pic you want to post in between 2 IMG tags.



https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...40404837_n.jpg



If you want to make sure your pic is posting correctly, hit preview to see it before you post it - that way if it is too large for the screen and people will have to scroll to view it or something, you can resize it and try again. :)

CIAJS ... I hope this helps!

Here you go Okieblu, this is a step by step way to do that from your computer.

Not claiming to be an expert, but I will try to help. If your membership level is BFP supporter II or above, you should have the option to choose a custom avatar as long as it does not exceed the maximum size. If you click on User CP, look on the left hand side of the page and there is an "edit avatar" option.

TruTexan 10-14-2014 09:30 PM

I think Mel C is right, if I recall, and I'd like to add that if you are a free membership user, you cannot use a custom avatar under your chosen name as you've seen others using.But, If you go into chat however, you can upload a pic there and use it in the chat room for a custom avatar in chat only.

You can also post a picture of yourself if you choose to do so, in the Gallery,it's listed on the left of the main page just click it.

The more people send you reps and thanks, the higher the number will go until it hits a wall and cannot go any further. You won't get anything for the points and you can't exchange them for anything.

They are just pretty, really.

CherryWine 11-17-2014 05:03 PM

Thanks, Gemme! How do you go about sending someone a rep? I was just looking at my User CP for the first time and noticed that someone left me a message regarding a post that I made. Is that the only place that those messages will show up? In other words, is that the only way that you will know if someone left a message about one of your posts...by checking your User CP?

homoe 11-17-2014 07:27 PM

Cherry, I'm not 100 % sure but yes I think that is how it works~

If you look at someone's post, you will see three symbols on the left at the very bottom of the post and under where the screen name and all that jazz go. The one in the middle is for leaving reps on that particular post. If you hover the mouse over it, it will say 'reputation for CherryWine's post' or something similar. If you just want to leave a 'thanks' without words or a personal note, then look to the bottom right of the post. There's a Thanks button. Please keep in mind that you can leave a rep and then thanks on the same post but cannot thank a post and then leave a rep. Tricky!

Yes, the User CP at the bottom is where your reps will show up and it will only show you the most recent ones. You will also get notifications in the box at the top right of the screen that's gray and says 'Welcome, CherryWine.' for private messages as well as for public notes left....kind of like a public rep.

You have the option of turning these features on or off under the User CP function, I believe.

They will do name changes only if it's to another name but nothing regarding relationships, that is what I gathered but try this link:

Also, a reminder to all: you can use your real first name but not your real last name. And we encourage people to change once or twice AT MOST over a lifetime. People need to consistently know who they're dealing with since this is an online venue.
